Slumdog Millionaire Camera Angles

Close up, panned up to the face, really yellow. Looks pained, tired, worried, stressed. Close up insists that he is very important.

Close up, man smoking makes him seem powerful, blows smoke in boy’s face showing weakness.

Starting the film at the end to know that you’re going to see how he got there. Instantly know money’s important, within the first minute they show money being scattered.

Birds eye view shot to show everyone’s watching him, making him look tiny amongst the audience.

Almost too nervous to answer the questions, no one understands that he’s being tortured behind the scenes.

Low angle shot showing they want something from him (to catch the ball).

Running through the slums away from cops, showing they new what they were doing and they’d done it all before. Music gets faster when they start running.
