BBFC
BBFC stands for British Board of Film Classification that looks into films and gives them there classification due to what lies in them. After research into our film genre we decided to make our short film a PG. We had to take into account all every aspect about our short film. The BBFC guidelines focus on the violence, language, sex, nudity, behaviour, discrimination and horror in its content. Our short film does not have any of the items listed and thats why we seemed fit to give it a PG rating. Our film is aimed at teens because of its storyline is more likely to effect this age bracket. Because our film has the reality side to it and the audience we aimed it at we took it upon ourselves to keep to as clean as possible. We didnt want to take the risk because its a real life scenario people to be influenced by it in a negative way.

If drugs are shown they must carry an anti message at minimum. They are no drugs in our film so this didnt concern us.
