Film Certification

Film certification range from U to r18.
From this information I was able to give my film trailer Rated 15 as it filled the same requirements. Also it meant I could keep to the style of film because Snatch/American Gangster etc. are all rated 15 to 18.
This meant my target audience would not change and still fit the requirements.

Symbol	Name	Definition/Notes
	Universal	All ages admitted, there is nothing unsuitable for children.
	Parental Guidance	All ages admitted, but certain scenes may be unsuitable for young children. May contain mild language and intermediate/illegal substance references. May contain moderate violence if justified by context (e.g. fantasy).
	12A	Cinema only. Introduced in 2002. Films under this category are considered to be unsuitable for very young people. Those aged under 12 years are only admitted if accompanied by an adult, aged at least 18 years, at all times during the motion picture. However, it is generally not recommended that children under 12 years should watch the film. Films under this category can contain mature themes, discrimination, soft illegal substance, moderate swear words, infrequent strong language and moderate violence, intermediate references and nudiity. Seexual activity may be briefly and discreetly portrayed. Seexual violence may be implied or briefly indicated.
	12	Home media only since 2002. 12A-rated films are usually given a 12 certificate for the VHS/DVD version unless extra material has been added that requires a higher rating. Nobody younger than 12 can rent or buy a 12-rated VHS, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, UMD or game. The content guidelines are identical to those used for the 12A certificate.
	15	Only those over 15 years are admitted. Nobody younger than 15 can rent or buy a 15-rated VHS, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, UMD or game, or watch a film in the cinema with this rating. Films under this category can contain adult themes, hard druugs, frequent strong language and limited use of very strong language, strong violence and strong seex references, and nudity without graphic detail. Seexual activity may be portrayed but without any strong detail. Sexual violence may be shown if discreet and justified by context.
	18	Only adults are admitted. Nobody younger than 18 can rent or buy an 18-rated VHS, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, UMD or game, or watch a film in the cinema with this rating. Films under this category do not have limitation on the bad language that is used. Hard drugs are generally allowed, and explicit seex references along with detailed seexual activity are also allowed. Scenes of strong real seex may be permitted if justified by the context. Very strong, gory, and/or sadistic violence is usually permitted. Strong seexual violence is permitted unless it is eroticised or excessively graphic.
	Restricted 18	Can only be shown at licensed adult cinemas or sold at licensed seex shops, and only to adults, those aged 18 or over.
