Discuss the challenges faced by satyajit ray as a film maker in the light of the essay
Answers
Answer:
•Satyajit Ray has created a magnificent world cinema work. As a film maker, though, he also encountered some difficulties.
1. Limited budget - There were no stars or songs/dances in film Pather Panchali, not even a plot or drama in the traditional sense. Producers turned the film down as it was not commercially viable. It was uneasy to make a low-budget film. Owing to the lack of sufficient resources, the camera and film stock were very costly, and the shooting took over two years to complete.
2. Amateur workers - Many crew members were working for the first time in a film. Thus, providing them with direction also posed as a challenge. Almost all the leading characters also were depicted by non-professional actors with little or no prior acting experience.
3. Location costs - At that time when the cameras and the other equipment were heavy and it was cumbersome to transport them to the spot, shooting outdoors and in proper locations was very difficult.
