The document discusses rating certificates for films and determining the appropriate rating for a thriller media product. Research found that over half of thriller films shown on the BBFB receive a 15 rating, allowing strong language, drug use, sexual references and violence. Feedback from questionnaires indicated that most respondents believed a 15 rating would be most suitable since the plot involving a kidnapped victim could emotionally affect younger viewers. Considering typical audiences for thriller films and the questionnaire feedback, the document concludes that a 15 rating is most appropriate for the media product.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. Stereotypically thriller audiences are
aimed at...
After searching on the Bbfc (British board of film classification) website I found that over half of all the thriller
films they show are produced with the 15 certificate.
Therefore can include strong language; Drug taking; Sexual references; and strong violence.
The least common certificate given to thriller films was 12A (Children 12 and under need to be accompanied
by an adult.)
This may be because thrillers will not always be able to show the key parts conventional to thriller films. Most
thrillers hold plot lines which wouldn’t be suitable for children younger than 12 to watch alone as it may effect
them emotionally or could possibly affect their behavior as there is a risk they could copy it. Therefore
watching with an adult will reduce the risk as they’re less likely to behave badly around their parent.
4. Certificate of films similar to our
product.
• Taken 2 has a plot line similar to our
media product and is aimed at
people over 15 and therefore has
the 15 age certificate. It includes
mature themes such as strong
violence and more which aren’t
suitable for children under 15.
• Prisoners includes a similar plot
where two families daughters go
missing and the parents try to find
them. Including the strong language
and violent scenes of torture it
wouldn’t be suitable for children
under 15. From this the film was
given the 15 rating certificate to
appeal to a more suitable audience.
5. Questionnaire feedback.
After looking into age certificates for thriller films I sent
questionnaires to people who had seen the film for their feedback.
The questionnaires were in connection with the previous research of
certificates and included questions of which certificate would be
most suitable for our film.
After sending out 15 questionnaires, 9 returned believing it should be
aimed at the age group of 15-25 year olds.
Some of their reasons for their decisions were:
‘The victims age makes it appeal to the younger, teen audience’
‘The plot line wouldn’t be suitable for someone younger than 15 as it
may effect them emotionally’
‘Even though the violence isn’t seen you can already see how the
film could progress from the few shots we do see.’
6. Conclusion.
Alongside research into stereotypical audiences for thriller film and the feedback from
surveys we concluded our thriller opening sequence should have the 15 certificate.
We chose this certificate as our plot line of kidnap would be unsuitable for children
under the age of 15 as it could emotionally effect them and their behavior.
As no violence or strong language is shown within the opening sequence some
feedback suggested we should rate the film as 12/12A however, with the later action
of violence and strong language we concluded 15 would be more suitable for the film.
Also, including a younger victim can appeal to that age as the age may be relatable.
We didn't rate our film as an 18 as we believe the content is not that extreme
therefore is suitable for children ages 15 and above. This is because it doesn't
include content such as; Strong blood or gore; No prohibited themes or strong sexual
activity. Therefore making it suitable to be rated below 18.
We didn't choose a specific gender to aim our thriller film at as we believe that both
males and females would enjoy the film.
Conventionally thriller films have the 15 certificate therefore i believe it makes our film
more realistic like other thriller films.
