The BBFC stands for British Board Of Film Classification, and was founded in 1912, then, known as the British Board of Film Censorship was formed to regulate the film industries products that would be viewed in the UK. Much different than how the press is regulated, as this is a more pro- active form of regulation.
They offer the regulation of any motion picture that is to be shown in the UK's cinemas, giving each picture an appropriate age rating for the content that is shown. Following some research on their website they have a large area dedicated to educating the public to how there organisation works. For example they have an area when members of the public can watch and rate trailers, then compare them to what the BBFC has rated them.
For my motion picture trailer "The Deprived" Me and my group are not attempting to offer it to a wide audience, as some film makers do ( trying to get the lowest age rating possible to tend to younger/ larger audiences ) as we are aiming for a 18 certificate, due to our aims of content that is realistic, brutal and highlights the main themes of our picture, loneliness, horror, depravity and depression. Not themes suitable for younger audiences.
