LO4 : BBFC Ratings
For LO4, I will hold a screening of my short film in front of different family members and friends. During this screening I will obtain information to which BBFC rating they think my short film falls under. Age and Gender is very important here to get a diverse statistic and a general result. The meaning and ratings of the BBFC are as follows:
U: This means universal, the footage can be watch by anyone of any age and does not contain anything that anyone under the age of 8 should see. There is also Uc, which is intended at a target audience of < 3 year olds.
PG: PG means parental guidance. It is similar U in the sense that anyone can go and see a film of this rating unaccompanied however parents should consider the different factors that a PG allows over a U.
12A: 12A is a cinema rating and therefore does not appear on TV. The 12A rating means that the film does not contain all the factors of a 12, which gives to option for persons under the age of 12 to watch the film if they are accompanied by an adult.
12: This rating means that only persons over the age of 12 can watch the film.
15: This rating means that only persons over the age of 15 can watch the film.
18: This rating means that only persons over the age of 18 can watch the film.
From U - 18, an increase of discrimination, offensive language, nudity, sexual interaction, violence, terror and dangerous behaviour are all possible.
For my film, I would rate it 12A for cinema, or 12 for TV screening due to the use of offensive language and some aspects of horror that may scare people under that age.
U: This means universal, the footage can be watch by anyone of any age and does not contain anything that anyone under the age of 8 should see. There is also Uc, which is intended at a target audience of < 3 year olds.
