Assessment 3

Our opening sequence will be mainly aimed at teenagers from an audience of above the age of 15 and although we wish to aim to a 14 + audience our aim would not be suitable for those at the age of below 15 as according to the BBFC’s regulations but the sequence will be able to obtain a 15 rating as of the following reasons.

Our footage will have no discriminating language or behaviour what so ever and is suitable in this area for a 15 + age group.

Drugs will not be in our footage and no reference will be present throughout our filming and planning stages.

Horror will be a main part to our film with it being in that particular genre. As the horror will not be sadistic or sexualised the film will be suitable for an under 18 audience. Our focus on the horror side will be to have the story as a mystery and slowly reveal details as it goes on.

Imitable behaviour will not be something that could be possible as the full sequence will be completely fictional and nothing can be repeated within real life.

Language may be present within the sequence but the language will be justified by context and no strong terms or repeated language will be used as it would be unacceptable for an under 18 audience.

Sexual activity and nudity will not be present within our footage as it had no relevance to what we are shooting and planning and will therefore be suitable for an under 18 audience.

The theme of the film will be an infection style horror making the story have a slight truth for some audience members giving a more sense of horror and a better chance for audiences to immerse within the actions of the film.

Some brief violent shots will be shown but no strong gore or violent attacks will be shown and those shots that are shown will not be fully detailed in any shape or form.

Overall our film will be suitable for an under 18 audience and will not be too gruesome for 15 + teenagers. Our main focus of age group will be those ages 15 – 24 aiming at a younger age group as of the theme and plot of the story will be more excitable and enjoyed by a younger age group than older.
