BBFC Classification

The children's film that we are to create, obviously has to have suitable classification such as a U or PG. There are multiple differences between the Universal and Parental Guidance classifications, we must be aware of these differences if we are to make a film ourselves. However both of these classifications are aimed at the same kind of audience, children.
The classifications consist of different sections:

Discrimination - Discriminatory language or behaviour is unlikely to be acceptable unless clearly disapproved of or in an educational or historical context.  Discrimination by a character with which children can readily identify is unlikely to be acceptable.

Drugs - References to illegal drugs or drug misuse must be innocuous or carry a suitable anti-drug 

Horror - Frightening sequences should not be prolonged or intense. Fantasy settings may be a mitigating factor.

Imitable behaviour - No detail of potentially dangerous behaviour which young children are likely to copy. No glamorisation of realistic or easily accessible weapons.

Language - Mild bad language only.

Nudity - Natural nudity, with no sexual context.

Sex - Sexual activity may be implied, but should be discreet and infrequent. Mild sex references and innuendo only.

Theme - Where more serious issues are featured (for example, domestic violence) nothing in their treatment should condone unacceptable behaviour.

Violent - Moderate violence, without detail, may be allowed, if justified by its context (for example, history, comedy or fantasy).

Discrimination - No discriminatory language or behaviour unless clearly disapproved of.

Drugs - No references to illegal drugs or drug misuse unless they are infrequent and innocuous, or there is a clear educational purpose or anti-drug message suitable for young children.

Horror - Scary sequences should be mild, brief and unlikely to cause undue anxiety to young children. The outcome should be reassuring.

Imitable behaviour - No potentially dangerous behaviour which young children are likely to copy. No emphasis on realistic or easily accessible weapons. 

Language - Infrequent use only of very mild bad language.

Nudity - Occasional natural nudity, with no sexual context.

Sex - Mild sexual behaviour (for example, kissing) and references only (for example, to ‘making love’).

Theme - While problematic themes may be present, their treatment must be sensitive and appropriate for young children.

Violence - Mild violence only. Occasional mild threat or menace only.
