The document discusses the criteria used by the British Board of Film Classification to determine a film's rating, including violence, imitable behavior, and offensive language. It then explains that a film being discussed would receive a 15 rating due to its frequent violence involving the infliction of pain and injury through weapons and fight scenes, as well as a regular use of offensive language.
Importance of genre
The document discusses the importance of genre in film production and marketing. Genre is used to categorize media based on similarities and conventions. It is important for producers to identify a film's genre to more easily classify, promote, and lower production costs. Knowing the genre allows audiences to have expectations about the type of film and decide if they are interested. Film ratings also help audiences understand what level of content is appropriate for their age.
BBFC Classification
The BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) is responsible for rating movies shown in the UK. They consider factors like violence, sex, language, drug use, and mature themes to determine if a movie should be rated U, PG, 12, 12A, 15, 18, or R18. The document discusses choosing a 15 rating for a student film project due to graphic violence and strong language used, though there are no sexual scenes, drugs, or significant discrimination. While most topics are mild, violence, language, and horror themes occur frequently.

The BBFC classifies films in the UK according to their content, including violence, language, nudity, and themes. They gave the described film an 15 age rating due to its moderate violence and swearing. The film contains torture and brutal killing scenes, as well as angry characters using strong language. An older audience is deemed appropriate to avoid negatively influencing younger viewers.
Certificate ratings
The document discusses UK film ratings and which would be most suitable for a horror film. It analyzes the guidelines for U, 12A, 15, and 18 ratings. A U rating is ruled out as horrors contain violence and threats. A 12A is also ruled out as the film will include gore and high violence. Either a 15 or 18 rating could work, but the 15 is concluded to be best as it has fewer limitations than an 18 while still allowing the essential horror elements the film requires.
Age certificate presentation
The document discusses the age rating certificates for horror films in the UK, outlining the criteria for 15 and 18 certificates. For a 15 certificate, strong language is allowed, nudity can be shown without strong detail, and violence may be strong but should not dwell on pain or injury. An 18 certificate contains material that may encourage illegal activity, portray children in a sexualized way, or contain explicit real violence intended to shock.

The document goes on to say that the film will be rated 18+ due to its planned inclusion of strong violence, language, sexual content, and other mature themes.

Bbfc media notes
The BBFC considers 9 main issues when classifying films: sex scenes, nudity, language, violence, weapons, drugs, horror, racism, and techniques that may harm children. Sex scenes and nudity are classified based on whether they are explicit or implied. Language is classified based on the use of swear words. Violence is considered based on depictions of blood, weapons, and whether violence is glorified. Drugs and racism must not be depicted in a way that glamorizes them. Harmful techniques like suicide cannot be shown. Overall, the BBFC aims to classify films at the appropriate age level based on these various content issues.
U,pg,12a,15,18
U films are suitable for audiences aged 4 and over. They may contain brief fight scenes or kissing but no hardcore violence or sexual activity. PG films are suitable for all ages but younger children should consider if content may upset them. PG films can contain brief sexuality or violence. 12A/12 ratings mean that 12A films can be seen unaccompanied in cinemas while 12 ratings apply to home media which must be accompanied for those under 12. 15 and 18 ratings prohibit access to those below the age limits and contain increasingly strong language, violence, nudity and sex.

The document discusses the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) system for rating films in the UK.

The author then analyzes how their short film opening scene would likely be rated PG or 12A due to implied violence and hints at bullying, but that if expanded into a feature film dealing with teenage issues like sex, drugs and escalating violence, it would merit a 15 rating.
Classifying films for children U, PG, 12A + 15
The document provides classification guidelines for films rated U (Universal) and PG (Parental Guidance) by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC). U films should be suitable for audiences aged 4+ and contain only mild violence, threat, language or horror. PG films may contain stronger content but should not unduly upset children aged 8+. Examples are given of issues examiners consider like violence, language, sex, nudity, drugs and discrimination. Sample film trailers are then assessed against the criteria, with some deemed suitable for PG and others too strong.

This document discusses the target audience and certification rating for a psychological thriller media product. It notes that the thriller genre audience tends to be older due to disturbing content.

Bbfc
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is responsible for issuing age ratings for films released in the UK. They consider factors like violence, language, adult humor, nudity, sex, drug use, and discrimination when rating films. Context, tone, and impact are important when determining if a scene merits a higher rating - for example, random violence may warrant a higher rating than contextual violence. Based on the description of moderate violence, gun fights, torture scenes, strong language, and themes of violence and espionage in the sample film, the document recommends an 18 rating.

BBFC Certification
The British Board of Film Classification is an independent body that categorizes films according to age-appropriateness using seven ratings: U, PG, 12A, 12, 18 and R18. At least two examiners review each film according to specific guidelines regarding legality, morality, cruelty, and promotion of harmful behaviors. The author's film would receive a 15 rating due to scenes containing strong violence, language, and threat with dark and unsettling tones that could disturb younger viewers, but not an 18 rating as it does not include frequent strong language, blood and gore, or extremely violent scenes in great detail.

The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) classifies films in the UK by age group. They watch each film and consider factors like violence, sex, language, nudity, mature themes, horror, and discrimination based on guidelines. These factors help them determine which age rating is appropriate. For example, a film may get a 12 rating if it contains some violence but no sex, nudity or mature themes. The document also discusses how the author's film opening would likely receive a 12 rating for having one mild violent scene but no harsh language, sex, nudity or horror.

BBFC post
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is an independent organization that classifies films, videos, DVDs, and some digital works like video games in the UK. They watch and play each work to evaluate the level of violence, sex, language, nudity, mature themes, horror, drugs, discrimination, and imitable behavior present. Based on these factors, they assign each work an age rating to determine the minimum age at which it can be viewed. The document then provides an example classification, concluding that a superhero film containing little fantasy violence, no bad language or sexual content, and conflict-based themes would receive a PG rating.

Media Studies AS Evaluation
This document contains Mohamed Bushra's reflections on their media studies coursework. They explain that they are resubmitting because they can now better link their research and planning to their final film product. They then provide responses to questions about how their film uses and challenges conventions of real media products, how it represents social groups, what type of media institution might distribute it, who the target audience is, and how they addressed this audience.
Radial Analysis My Film
The introduction establishes the main characters as police officers named "Badcop" and "Worsecop" through freeze frames and annotations describing their physical attributes and lack of intelligence. The location of a park is an unconventional choice for an action-comedy that subverts expectations and adds an element of comedy. The opening credits are in all uppercase with a funky font style that connotes the film may have a twist despite its serious implications as an action-comedy.
