Film Certification

Film Certification

Film certification is a film rating system that is designated to classify films with regard to suitability for audiences in terms of issues such as sex, violence , substance abuse, profanity, impudence or other types of immature content.

Considering the film certification from the British board of film classification i decided to conduct some secondary research into the certification of the ratings for certain films. As our film opening is based at a 15-24 year old age bracket and as most Romantic movies fall into the 12 or 15 certification we decided as a group that our film opening 'Distance' would be certified as a 15 as we thought taking into consideration what that movie is actually about and what our target audience is which is teenagers and most teenagers are in the 15 certification and are able to watch suitable romantic movies. Therefore this film certification has helped support the reason behind our target audience and the certification which we gave to our opening film.
