The BBFC rates films based on their content, including language, violence, sex, and other potentially offensive material. They assign age ratings from U to 18 to indicate what age groups films are appropriate for. The rating process involves film directors submitting their finished films to the BBFC for examination. Two examiners from the BBFC then carefully watch each film and determine the appropriate rating based on the type and frequency of potentially offensive content. The different age ratings indicate what types of content are allowed at each rating level, with more restrictive ratings like 12A and 18 allowing stronger language, sex scenes, violence and gore.

Bbfc guidelines
The document summarizes the BBFC guidelines for 15-rated and 18-rated films in the UK. For a 15-rating, drug use may be shown but not promote misuse, nudity is allowed without strong detail, sexual activity and violence may be depicted but not dwell on pain/injury. An 18-rating means no one under 18 can view, and explicit sexual content or promotion of harmful acts are unlikely to be allowed. The filmmakers chose a 15-rating for their horror film opening because it included scary elements but not graphic content, and would appeal to a wider audience within their low budget.

The BBFC classifies films in the UK according to their content and assigns age ratings to help audiences determine if a film is appropriate for them to view. Films featuring strong language, violence, sexual content or other adult themes receive higher ratings like 15 or 18, meaning younger viewers are not permitted to see them. Thrillers and horror films usually receive a 15 rating due to their potential for menace, threat, or gory images, though some psychological thrillers with less intense content may be rated 12A to allow for a broader audience. Filmmakers aim for lower ratings when possible to maximize profits from a wider eligible viewer base.
Bbfc guidelines research
The document outlines the guidelines for 15-rated and 18-rated films according to the BBFC. 15-rated films can contain strong language, nudity, implied sex scenes, and strong violence without gore. 18-rated films are restricted to those over 18 and can contain explicit sexual content or promote unlawful acts like violence, as long as it does not break the law. The author concludes they will aim for a 15-rating for their low-budget film to reach a teenage audience without excessive swearing, violence, or adult content.

Erika White researched the British Board of Certification rules for age ratings and determined that their film would qualify for a 15 rating based on its planned use of frequent strong language and discriminatory language or behavior. While these elements are allowed in a 15 rating, the film will not include stronger portrayals of sexual activity, sexual violence, horror, blood/gore or real sex scenes that could require an 18 rating. As an example, the film trailer cites Mr. and Mrs. Smith which received a 15 rating despite violence but little strong language.

Bright colors were chosen to make it stand out compared to more subtle colors used by other artists. While following conventions like artist image and name, the poster designers also made some challenges, like using brighter "electro" colors instead of darker colors typically seen in dubstep posters to try and appeal to a mainstream audience. Tour dates were not included which could have made the poster more effective at promoting the artist's live performances.

The document discusses UK film rating classifications and provides descriptions of each rating. The U rating is for general audiences aged 4 and over but may not be suitable for all children. The PG rating means parental guidance is advised as some scenes may not be suitable for young children. The 12A rating allows those 12 and over to attend unaccompanied but younger children must be accompanied by an adult. Higher ratings of 15 and 18 restrict viewing based on depictions of violence, language, sexual content and more. The filmmaker determines a 12A rating would fit their thriller due to limited language but thrilling content.

Media Studies: The BBFC
The BBFC classifies films into age categories to determine who can view movies. They use ratings like U, 12A, 15, and 18. A U film is suitable for ages 4 and over and contains no sexual references or strong violence. 12A films are not suitable for those under 12 without an adult, and can contain discreet nudity and sex. 15 rated films prohibit those under 15 and contain strong language and violence but minimal discrimination. 18 rated films are only for ages 18 and up and can contain any content.
Presentation on age in film
The document discusses the various age rating classifications for films in the UK. It outlines the ratings as follows:
U - for universal audiences aged 4 and up, with no significant issues. PG - for parental guidance, may have mild violence or language. 12A - for ages 12+ or younger accompanied. 12 - for ages 12+ only. 15 - for ages 15+ with stronger content. 18 - restricted to ages 18+ with very strong content permitted. 18R - a legally restricted category only for explicit adult content. The ratings are designed to help audiences and parents determine what is appropriate for different age groups.
Question 4 – who would be the audience for your media product?
This document discusses potential target audiences for a low-budget independent horror film called "Tracks of Damnation". It analyzes that the film would not appeal to a global "tent pole audience" due to its limited budget and unknown cast. Instead, the target audience would be niche and national in scope since the film, production company, and setting are all British. The goal is to receive a 15 rating from the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), which would allow scenes of strong violence, threat, and language but no sexual or drug content. The primary target audience is identified as older teens and young adults aged 15-30, with males as a secondary audience drawn to genres like slasher films.
Cetification ratings
The document discusses the various film rating certificates issued by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) in the UK. Ratings are important as they determine what age groups can view certain films based on their content. The U rating is for all ages and contains only mild elements, while the PG rating means parental guidance is required for children aged 8 and over due to themes like domestic violence. Movies rated 12A allow under-12s with an accompanying adult, while 12 ratings mean ages 12 and over can view. Films rated 15 and 18 contain increasingly strong language, violence, sex or discrimination unsuitable for younger viewers. The R18 category restricts pornographic films solely to adult audiences.
BBFC
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) classifies films, videos, and video games in the UK. They examine content for issues like language, sex, violence and discrimination and assign age ratings to help consumers make informed viewing decisions and protect children. Films are typically viewed by multiple examiners and sometimes specialists. The BBFC conducts public consultations every few years to ensure their classification guidelines meet public expectations. Films are assigned ratings of U, PG, 12A/12, 15, or 18 depending on the level and nature of content, with higher ratings restricting viewing to older audiences.
22 jump street power point
The document analyzes the marketing campaign for the film 22 Jump Street. It discusses the campaign's aims of promoting and generating interest in the film. The target audience is identified as predominantly male, aged 15-25. A variety of promotional techniques are used, including posters, trailers, merchandise, and press coverage. The trailer aims to be humorous and entertaining to encourage audiences to see the full movie.
Assignment 7: BBFC
The BBFC is the British Board of Film Classification which rates films, music videos, video games and other media in the UK. They use a rating system from U to R18 based on content like violence, language, drugs, sex and nudity. Two examiners watch each film and consider issues of harm and social attitudes to determine the appropriate rating. Every few years they consult the public to ensure their standards meet societal views of what age ratings are appropriate. While the ratings symbols can differ between cinema and home video releases, the classification guidelines aim to be consistent to provide informed choices to consumers, especially parents.
Assignment 7:
The BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) classifies films, videos, music videos and video games in the UK using a rating system. Films are viewed by two examiners who consider issues like discrimination, drugs, horror, dangerous behavior, language, nudity, sex, and violence to determine an appropriate rating. Ratings range from Universal to Restricted 18. The guidelines for each rating are periodically adjusted based on public consultation to ensure ratings meet social standards. For example, the film "The Human Centipede" was not rated 15 due to drugs, threats, intense language, violence and explicit sexual content and nudity.
Certificate ratings
The document discusses the various British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) ratings for films in the UK. It explains the criteria for each rating level - U, PG, 12A, 12, 15, and 18 - in terms of what types of content are considered appropriate and permitted at each rating level. For example, a U rating means a film is suitable for all audiences, while an 18 rating means a film cannot be viewed by anyone under 18 due to explicit content such as strong violence, sexual violence, or discriminatory language. The document concludes that the author's film opening will likely receive a 15 rating in the UK due to containing horror elements with violence and strong language, but not as much gore or behavior as an
British board of film classification
The BBFC classifies movies in the UK by assigning them age ratings so that content is suitable for different audiences. Raters review movies and determine if they should be rated U, PG, 12A, 15, or 18 based on mature content. For their film, the document recommends an 18 rating to include common thriller genre elements, despite fewer people being able to see it, to remain true to the selected genre.
Certificate rating
The document discusses different age rating certificates (U, PG, 12A, 15, 18) in the UK film classification system. It provides details on the types of content allowed under each rating, such as language, sexual content, violence, and drug use. The author believes the 15 rating is most suitable for their film opening, as it allows for strong language, moderate sexual activity and violence, but does not permit very strong or sexually explicit content like the 18 rating.
Bbfc
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is an independent organization that classifies films, videos, DVDs, and video games distributed in the UK according to their age ratings and content guidelines. The BBFC aims to protect children from harmful content, empower the public to make informed viewing choices, and recognize adult freedom of choice within the law. Films are rated U, PG, 12A, 15, or 18 based on their themes, violence, language, drug use, and sexual content. Higher ratings allow for more mature content but still restrict gory or sexually sadistic images.
BBFC Film Classification Research
The BBFC is the independent British Board of Film Classification that has been classifying films, videos, DVDs, and some video games shown in UK cinemas and sold/distributed in the UK since 1912. Its primary aims are to protect children and other vulnerable groups from harm through legally enforceable age ratings and content information. Films are normally classified by two examiners using the BBFC's published guidelines. The document then provides details on what each of the main BBFC age rating categories (U, PG, 12A, 15, 18, R18) mean in terms of appropriate audience age and content. It also gives some examples of thriller films and their BBFC ratings.

The BBFC is an independent non-governmental organization that classifies films, videos, DVDs, and video games distributed in the UK according to their age ratings and content. It aims to protect children from harmful content and empower the public to make informed viewing choices. The BBFC has guidelines that determine the age ratings of U, PG, 12A, 15, and 18 based on factors like violence, language, sex, drugs and more. Higher ratings allow for increasingly explicit or adult content.
Certification of films
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) decides the certificate rating for films in the UK based on levels of sex and nudity, violence, discrimination, language, and imitable behavior. The BBFC examines films before release to assign age ratings of U, PG, 12A, 15, or 18 to ensure appropriate content for different age groups and to provide consumers information about a film's content. Higher ratings indicate the potential presence of stronger violence, sexual content, horror imagery, or other adult themes unsuitable for children.
Regulation
The document discusses the BBFC age rating system for films in the UK. It focuses on the 15 and 18 ratings which are most associated with thriller genre films. The 15 rating allows for strong language, violence, and depictions of sexual activity as long as they are not gratuitous or encouraged. An 18 rating contains very strong language, violence, sexual content and may portray such things in a positive light. The author explains how understanding these ratings can help identify an appropriate target audience for a film teaser trailer they are creating about a protagonist cursed by the devil. While age ratings provide guidance, they acknowledge they do not fully prevent people from watching inappropriate content online.
Presentation1
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is an independent organization that rates films and videos in the UK. To obtain a rating, a distributor submits a film to the BBFC along with an application and fee. Examiners then view the film and assign an age rating based on its content. The main age rating categories are U, PG, 12A, 15, and 18, with 18-rated films only suitable for adults due to explicit content.

Picth propsal
The proposal outlines an idea for a 15-20 second ident video that would use Lego elements. A Lego crane would pick up an E4 logo piece from a box of Lego and place it on the ground, at which point a Lego car would crash into the logo and smash it into pieces. The ident would be filmed in a classroom using a camera to focus on the crane's movement and the crashing/smashing of Lego pieces, with accompanying sounds of the crane, Lego crashing, and car impact. A final storyboard for the ident video is included.

Employment laws
This document outlines several key UK employment laws:
- Health and safety laws require employers to identify and mitigate workplace risks to protect workers. Equal opportunities legislation prohibits discrimination based on attributes like age, gender, religion and disability.
- Employment equality laws prevent unreasonable age discrimination in hiring, firing, pay and benefits. Employers liability insurance protects employers in case an employee is injured or becomes ill due to workplace conditions.
- Employee rights laws mandate fair work contracts, wages, holiday leave, illness compensation and standards for dismissal. Trade unions allow workers to organize and advocate for their rights and interests through actions like strikes.

Music videos promote songs and artists in several ways. They make songs memorable by relating visually to the lyrics. Artists use music videos to showcase their musical talents and connect with listeners on a deeper level. Music videos also extend an artist's income long after albums are sold by keeping their music entertaining and memorable over time, as demonstrated by iconic videos from Michael Jackson and PSY. While MTV used to prominently feature music videos, increasing their views and sales, music videos must now utilize separate music channels and online platforms like YouTube to reach audiences.

Step two: Once the film has been seen by the CBBFC the company must pay to rate the film. Step three: Once the film has been rated the film is then checked again t see if It is good enough quality for a team examiner to watch it. Step four: Hundreds of films are sent to the BBFC for a rating each year. Step five: Two examiners watch the film. They must carefully write the title down. ( as the title will be shown on the black card certificate you see in cinemas).
- 4. Different age rating • The U rating in the filming industry means that ages four and above are suitable to watch this film. • A U film may include some brief fight scenes but nothing to violent, as it only shows the places where the characters are in danger. • How does a film pass as a U film? The film must be appropriate to the young audience with no strong language and no sex, drugs, or any gory scenes.
- 5. Age ratings for films. • A 12A film will consist of brief sex scenes and sexual references. • It ay also contain moderate fight scenes but nothing to detailed. • A 12A film would not contain strong language.
- 6. Age ratings for films • An age 18 film will contain sex, drug, strong language, fights and gory scenes throughout the film. • Strong violence. • No-one under the age of 18 is allowed to see any of these films as the age 18 rating is classed as and for adults only. • Even though the film is an 18 it does show drug usage; but it has no intention of teaching any adult that it is the right thing to do. (take drugs).
- 7. How are age 15 and 18 films rated? • Both aged 15 and 18 films are rated on how much strong language is used throughout and other scenes such as sex, drugs, fights, and gory scenes. • The age ratings are put into place to tell people under the age of 15 or 18 that they’re not age adequate to see these films.
