BBFC Classification

I understand that our opening sequence will not fit the 'U' and 'PG' grades because children aged four will not understand or may find our Ghost uncomfortable to watch.Our film may still disturb an audience of eight or a few years older. This is why we are not giving our film a rated 'U' or 'PG'.

We believe the rating '12A' is suitable for our audience as it will allow adults to accompany 12 years or over to the cinema but will not allow a 12 year old to buy a DVD etc because our film has dark elements, ghosts. The darkness isn't highly focused on in our film, although there are some sinister moments; not intended to frighten the audience but they are just intended to cause suspense. We don't plan to have any gore or sexual acts within our movie, although, if allowed full length, there would be a small amount of swearing involved in our film. I believe our film will have more views as a '12A' because more people are allowed to watch it, it will certainly reach our TA and will thus gain more money for our company.
