BBFC
The BBFC, or the British Board of Film Classification, are the company that decide on the certification of a movie. They decide whether a film will be U, PG, 12, 12A, 15, or 18.They also decide whether a movie will be allowed for viewing or not some movies are too gory or gruesome for being released, some times it will be because a child get visibly hurt or some reason of that sort.

Discrimination: It is not allowed to be about discrimination but can have small elements.
Drugs: Drugs usage is allowed but it must not promote the misuse of any drugs, including easily accessible drugs (Such as solvents)
Horror: Violence is allowed as long as it isn’t sexualised or sadistic
Imitable behaviour: Self destructive behaviour must not dwell on elements that can be copied
Nudity: Nudity is potentially allowed in a sexual context but without strong detail. Nudity from a non-sexual or educational perspective is allowed
Violence: Not allowed strong sadistic or sexually violent scenes, references are allowed but must be discreet and have a strong sexual context. Violence can be strong but cannot stay on infliction of pain or injury

Doing this task allowed me too see what sort of content we could have in our film so that it stays as only a 15, if I did not do this the film may have become too violent and I would have lost most of my target audience
