Our film is based on a thriller, meaning that the certification for the film needs to be considered as scenes of trauma will be aired and therefore not everyone will legally be able to see the film. Obviously having a certificate U, PG, or 12 would not be appropriate as strong language and scenes of violence can not be taken lightly. So the choice was between certificate 15 or certificate 18.
After looking at the guidelines which make up a 15 certificate film, we realised that an 18 certificate would not be needed as sex, strong language, nudity, horror and imitable behaviour are allowed within reason as part of a 15 certificate film.
So basically, the target audience for our horror film ‘’eye spy with my little eye’’ is a 15 certificate
What else have you done to ensure you are targetting the right audience?
