Certification

For my film i am hoping to create a trailer for a action thriller. In this category violence is a going to be a key aspect of the film to create suspense and keep the audience engaged and interested in the film.

Violence
"Violence may be strong but should not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury. The strongest gory images are unlikely to be acceptable. Strong sadistic or sexualised violence is also unlikely to be acceptable.
There may be detailed verbal references to sexual violence but any portrayal of sexual violence must be discreet and have a strong contextual justification."

This quote is from the BBFC, i feel that it applies to what i'm trying to create as i have taken influences from trailers of films like Memento which is a 15. I have also taken influence from some game trailers as although they are not specifically film, they use numerous angles and interesting effects to create emotive trailers. 


One of these games is dante's inferno, which is rated 18, and i'm aiming to use a similar style of violence but make it much less graphic and obvious so that it can be classified as a 15.

In my trailer i plan to have minimal dialogue aside from a narrative so swearing and colourful language will not be an issue.
For these reasons i have decided to rate my film as a 15.
