Practical Task - Certification Process

Based on the specifications from the British Board of Film Classification we came to the conclusion that an appropriate age rating for our movie would be not an 18 but instead a 15. The 18 age rating's requirements are very similar to the requirements of a 15 but to a much higher content  (very strong violence, frequent strong language e.g. 'f***' and / or very strong language e.g. ‘c***’, strong portrayals of sexual activity, scenes of sexual violence, strong horror, strong blood and gore, real sex (in some circumstances), discriminatory language and behaviour). Seeing as our one only contains a few of these factors (e.g. Violence, foul language) and to a low extent we thought that an age rating of 15 would perhaps be the most suitable.
