Film 4 productions Slumdog Millionaire Production issues

Film 4 recently made Slumdog Millionaire, a very successful film at the cinemas. The production issues with the film brought up issues like music, casting new talent into the film and advertisement.
the music had to be chosen very carefully as it was a small budget film so they could not afford to get a big name in so they decided to go with A. R. Rahman.
Casting was also abig issue as they could not spend a lot of money on actors so they would have to take a chane with an unknow actors such as Dev Patel probaly the best known of all the cast from the hit tv series skins.
Also advertising the film would have come up but because of film 4 synigie with channel 4 the could market the fim on tv for nothing and that saved thgem alot of money when it came to advertising but they had to do all the posters the old fashoned way.
