The 12A certificate was introduced in 2002 to replace the 12 certificate and allows those under 12 to watch a film if accompanied by a reasonable adult guardian. The 15 certificate introduced in 1982 permits those 15 and over to watch films that may contain frequent strong language but not excessive aggression or abuse, some nudity but not in detail, and violence without pain or horror. The 18 certificate also from 1982 is strictly for those 18 and over due to explicit content such as nudity, sex, and violence unless promoting harassment or illegal ideas.
Pitch
The document summarizes a film pitch called "Graduation" about three nerdy high school friends - Adam, George, and Eddy - who are outcasts. As their high school graduation approaches, they decide to attend the graduation party despite being told they are not welcome. The pitch argues that the film would appeal to a wide audience as it uses conventions from popular teen comedies like American Pie, focusing on the friends attending a party and Eddy's attempt to make a move on a popular girl named Chloe. It suggests pitching the idea to Universal Studios due to their experience with successful teen films.
The Target Audience
The target audience for horror movies is primarily males aged 15-25. This age group is old enough to watch R-rated horror films and are drawn to the thrill and adrenaline of being scared. Horror films also appeal to the working class due to more affordable ticket and DVD prices. Word-of-mouth from "mainstreamers" who see films first helps drive broader interest through recommendations to friends and for first dates.
The target audience
The target audience for horror films is primarily males aged 15-25. This age group is old enough to watch R-rated horror films and are seeking thrills. Horror films also appeal to this demographic as they are maturing and horror movies can elicit different emotions. Additionally, the stereotype is that men enjoy being scared more than women and are more drawn to graphic violence. Mainstream audiences who see films first then spread the word also contribute to the genre's popularity as word-of-mouth increases viewership. Finally, horror films aim their marketing at the working class due to more affordable ticket and home video prices.

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.
Film certificate research
The filmmakers chose a 15 rating for their horror film because research showed that horror films rated 15 make the most money since teenagers prefer this genre the most. A 15 rating allows for some violence, language, sexual content and references while still appealing to teenagers, whereas an 18 rating permits stronger content but is aimed at adult audiences.
BBFC
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non-governmental organization funded by the film industry that is responsible for classifying and censoring films in the UK. It uses rating symbols like U, PG, 12A, 15, and 18 to provide guidance on the age suitability of films and videos. The ratings provide information on the level of violence, language, sexual content, and other potentially adult or disturbing material contained within the film.

Question 2
The document discusses how different aspects of the opening film sequence are designed to represent social groups and relate to the target audience. A young, white, British male protagonist is used to attract a British audience who can identify with the character. His wealth, nice home, and expensive watch indicate he is of high social class. While his involvement in criminal activity makes his background and status ambiguous. As the target audience is males aged 15-25, a young male protagonist is chosen who has mystery to engage viewers.
Question 4 rough draft
The document discusses the film rating and target audience for a horror film. The authors decided to target a 15 rating because they did not plan to include graphic violence or strong language, though their film could potentially be rated 12A. They chose 15 as the target age range tends to see horror films to prove they are not scared, which would increase potential profits. Most horror films receive 15 or 18 ratings due to graphic content not suitable for younger viewers, like gore and killers. The authors conducted a survey of horror film audiences to understand what types of scenes attract viewers and are conventionally included in the genre.
Certificates for slide share
Certificates provide ratings to indicate the appropriate age for viewing films. The 'U' rating means a film is suitable for all ages and will contain no inappropriate content. The 'PG' rating recommends parental guidance as some scenes may not be suitable for children. Films rated '12A' can contain stronger violence but not too strongly as the target age is still young. A '12' rating means no one under 12 can view without a parent present and films may contain mild language. '15' rated films are unsuitable for those under 15 and can contain strong language, sexual content and violence. The most restrictive '18' rating designates adult films that contain explicit content and require proof of age to view.
Audience Evaluation
The document discusses the target audience and rating for a film that deals with the mature theme of paedophilia. It states that the film has been given a 12A certificate because it is suitable for ages 12 and over, as the lack of explicit scenes means those ages would be able to relate to the themes. However, if the film contained very strong language, depictions of sexual activity, violence or discriminatory content, the rating would be increased to 15.

BBFC and rating research
The document discusses film rating classifications used by the BBFC in the UK. It provides information on the 12, 12A, 15, and 18 ratings. A 12 rating allows moderate language and violence but not glamorization of weapons. A 12A is for films shown in cinemas. A 15 rating contains stronger content than 12 but not as much as 18, allowing strong language, violence, and brief sexual scenes. An 18 has the highest tolerance and can contain very strong violence, language, sexual content and real sex/drug depictions but not promotion of such acts. The document concludes by explaining a filmmaker's choice to rate their film 15 to access the largest teenage audience.
Evaluation
The target audience for the horror film opening "Scarlett" is 15-25 year olds. It received a 15 rating due to strong language used to portray the working-class teenagers and their rebellious behavior. Violence and killing scenes are also included to fit the slasher subgenre. Both male and female audiences are targeted by including characters of both genders displaying different personalities and appearances. The film portrays a multiracial cast but aims to appeal most to a working-class audience through its depiction of teenage activities like drinking and smoking in a park.

British board of classification
The BBFC was established in January 1913 by the film industry to self-regulate film content and assign ratings instead of government censorship. It is funded by the film industry and responsible for age ratings to help audiences determine if films are appropriate for children or adults. A 15 rating was chosen for the proposed film to attract a wider audience while still including some adult themes and violence. The official rating would be determined after filming based on the full content.

The document discusses potential film ratings for a thriller movie project. It explores the guidelines of the British Board of Film Classification ratings system. Based on the research, the author predicts the movie will likely receive a 12A or 15 rating. A 12A would allow a wider target audience but provide less creative freedom, while a 15 rating would give more freedom but target a narrower audience. After debate, the author decides a 15 rating is best for the thriller project, as it allows more interesting and explicit content like violence, improving realism. The implications of a 15 rating are discussed as both benefits like increased freedom, and drawbacks like a smaller target audience.

OVERVIEW OF ANCIENT EDUCATION
Primitive education aimed to teach children the skills and cultural values needed to become productive members of their tribe. It occurred through participation in daily life and observation of adults. Education was classified into pre-puberty, focused on practical skills, and post-puberty initiation, which imparted cultural knowledge.
Ancient Chinese education was based on Confucian classics and emphasized memorization. Boys were educated at home and in schools, focusing on reading, writing, and arithmetic, while girls' education was limited to the home. Formal education culminated in competitive state examinations to earn degrees required for government positions. The examination system was abolished in 1905 to modernize education.

Here are the steps to solve this logic puzzle:
1. Albert knows the word immediately because he must have a unique letter - c, o, h, s, x, or i - that only appears in one word.
2. Bernard thinks for a moment, so he doesn't have a unique letter, but can eliminate words based on the unique letters Albert can't have.
3. Cheryl also thinks for a moment, so she doesn't have a unique letter either, but can determine the word with the process of elimination.
4. The only word left that is consistent with Albert, Bernard, and Cheryl's letters is "dog".

Nicknames
The document discusses names and nicknames of places and things. It begins by explaining that linguists, sociologists, psychologists, and journalists are interested in nicknames for various reasons. The document then states that the current English language program does not cover nicknames in sufficient detail. It proposes examining American English nicknames from a cultural linguistics perspective. Several example nicknames for places in the US, UK, Japan and animals are provided. The document outlines its objectives, methods, practical applications and concludes that nicknames are important aspects of social interaction worth further study.
Conciseness
The document provides guidance on writing concisely by eliminating unnecessary words. It advises to tell the reader what will be said, say it, then tell them what was said. Writers should strive to be direct, plain, and concise by only using words that are essential to the meaning.

Wordy phrases like "due to the fact" or redundant words and phrases should also be eliminated to improve clarity and conciseness.

This document discusses various philosophical concepts related to defining terms, including vagueness, ambiguity, intensional vs extensional definitions, and principles for creating good definitions. It notes that most words are either equivocal or analogical, and that definitions should specify the essential nature or "genus and specific difference" of the thing being defined while avoiding arguments or negative/circular constructions. Precise use of language is important to avoid confusion and enable clear communication.
REPEATED MEASURESLab 6Lab 6¨ We associate colors.docx
This study examined whether the color red enhances men's attraction to women. In 5 experiments, men viewed pictures of women wearing either red or other colored shirts. Men rated women wearing red as more attractive and sexually desirable compared to other colors. However, red did not influence women's ratings of other women's attractiveness or men's ratings of women's personality traits like kindness. The findings suggest that the color red has positive and appetitive implications in romantic contexts by signaling sex and romance for men. The research contributes to understanding how color can influence psychological functioning and evaluations beyond just aesthetics.

Main idea review
The passage discusses the importance of patents and the patent system. It notes that many modern inventions like the telephone and automobile may never have been developed without patent protection, as it provides an incentive for inventors by allowing them to protect their ideas from being copied. Key principles of the US patent system originated in England, including granting exclusive rights to inventors in exchange for publicly disclosing their inventions. The US Constitution established a uniform patent law, and the first patent was issued in 1790. The Patent Office has grown significantly over time to examine over 1,000 applications per week.
