The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non – governmental organisation, founded by the film industry in 1912. It is a company responsible for the national classification and censorship of films exhibited at cinemas and video works.
For our film we decided on giving it an age rating of 12A, as there aren’t any scenes in it which would upset younger viewers, but there can be some uncomfortable scenes which follow Emily's distressing journey on figuring out what has happened to her family so children under 12 might need to be accompanied.
To make our own certificate we used photoshop which we found very quick and easy to use. We found a template online and added in our own film title and description of the content of the film, so in this case we added "moderate language and disturbing scenes". We changed the colour, size and font of the writing to make it look suitable and more professional. We also took out parts of the template which we didn't need and that didn’t apply to our film.
You have researched film classification and applied your knowledge and understanding to the age rating of your film.
