Who are the BBFC?
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) was introduced by members of the film industry in 1912. This allowed them to have rights to censor and certificate films rather than having the government do it. However, there are still relations between the two.
The certification that is given to a production depends on a
number of different factors, for example: how much sex/nudity, drug use, strong
language and violence is included within the film. This is beneficial as it
prohibits minor of particular ages viewing the material in cinemas, or being
able to purchase the DVD/Blu-Ray version of the film, depending on the
certification given.
 |
| Universal – There is no unsuitable content for very young children, and can be viewed by anyone |
 |
| Parental Guidance - Viewable for all ages, may unsettle young children |
 |
| Previously labelled as '12', the BBFC altered this certificate to allow those under 12 t view the material when accompanied by an adult. 12A films can include more mature themes, drug use, strong language and brief
sexual references
|
 |
| Only those aged 15 and above are allowed to view films with this certication, as they usually contain moderate adult themes including drug use, sexual activity/nudity, violence and strong language |
 |
| Only suitable for those aged 18 and over. There is usually no limit on the amount of strong language and violence presented, and there is often drug us and sexual activity Our Short Film We have decided that our production is best suited to a 15 certification. We believe that this is the right choice due to the themes addressed as well as the props used. Our film includes the use of guns, dangerous weaponry and violence that is acted out by our characters. My group and I believe that these aspects are necessary in portraying our genre and rationale to our audience. Our protagonist, Ricky reacts aggressively in a cold-blooded manner as he eliminates targets that are out to kill him in the game he is playing that has come to life. Therefore, the use of guns may be unsuitable and disturbing for younger children to watch. It may also be considered very inappropriate to be presented to unaccompanied children as it includes weapon violence in which children may look to replicate. We would consider our film appropriate not only for those aged 15-18 (teenagers) who are most likely to find our production appealing, but also adults of all ages, as the themes, rationale and setting used are easier to comprehend, making it feel realistic in relation to other action-genre films. While various serious topics are included within our short film, the use of violence is a very serious subject; therefore we strongly believe our film deserves a 15 certificate.
