The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is a non-governmental organisation founded by the film industry in 1912, which is responsible for the classification and censorship of films in the UK.
Classification is the ‘process of giving age ratings and content advice to films and other audio-visual content to help children and families choose what’s right for them and avoid what’s not’.
The BBFC produce and publish guidelines which influence all classification decisions. They are regularly updated, and the product of public consultation, research and experience, reflecting current views on regulation. The guidelines determine the age category of each film: U, 12, 12A, etc.
After researching these given guidelines on the BBFC website, myself and my production team decided that our film ‘TRU 2 U’ will fit into the 12A-rating: suitable for anyone aged 12 or over to go and see the film unaccompanied. Our BBFC film certificate was produced using PowerPoint to edit our film name onto a template.
