Hazards For Chick Flick Opening

Here are the hazards that could occur in our opening:

Interview with a potential viewer

Here is an interview with my sister, Lizzie about the kind of person she is:

Chick Flick Survey

Here is our survey so that we can find out statistics about our target audience:

Certificate Ratings

This means universal, therefore should be acceptable for audiences ages 4 and over. There is basically no bad language (possibly the odd "damn","hell", "bloody" or "bugger" but in a justified context). Characters may be seen kissing or cuddling and there may be references to sexual behaviour (ie to ‘making love’). However, there will be no overt focus on sexual behaviour, language or innuendo. It may include brief fight scenes but it will be over quickly to avoid young children experiencing emotional stress. (E.g.The Princess Diaries)

This means parental guidance but the film is suitable for general viewing but some scenes may be unsuitable for young children. It should not disturb a child of 8 or over. There may be mild bad language (such as ‘shit’ or ‘son of a bitch’) in a PG film, but the context and delivery are always important. For example, if the language is used aggressively or if there is too much bad language, a work may be passed at the next category. Sexual references are acceptable if the activity talked about or shown is implied and lacking in detail. There should be no detail of violence in a PG work, so while there might be some blood, we would not see how the injury was inflicted in strong                                                 detail. (E.g. Grease)

This means that anyone aged 12 or over can see the film unacompanied ( 12Aonly exists in the cinema). There may be strong language (eg 'f***') but it must be infrequent. Sex may be briefly and discreetly portrayed at 12 or 12A. Verbal sex references should not go beyond what is suitable for young teenagers.moderate violence is allowed but it should not dwell on detail (E.g. Mean Girls)

This means that anyone over 15 can watch the film. There is no upper limit on the number of uses of strong language (eg f***).Sexual activity can be portrayed and violence may be strong. (E.g. Bridesmaids)

These films are rated for adults. There is no limit on strong language and sexual activity can be portrayed. Violence can be displayed with strong detail. (E.g. Spring Breakers)

This is a special and legally restricted classification primarily for explicit works of consenting sex or strong fetish material involving adults. Films may only be shown to adults in specially licensed cinemas, and video works may be supplied to adults only in licensed sex shops. ‘R18’ videos may not be supplied by mail order.




I think that I will probably use a 12/12A for my film opening.
