Research - Age Ratings

Because of the somewhat sensitive or adult nature to our planned production we decided to look at the BBFC guidelines for classifying film and video. Here is what we found…

PG - Nudity
Natural nudity, with no sexual context.

12- Nudity
Nudity is allowed, but in a sexual context must be brief
and discreet.

15 - Nudity
Nudity may be allowed in a sexual context but without
strong detail. There are no constraints on nudity in a
non-sexual or educational context.

Although there is not sexual content in our video, the scenes that involve a stripper show considerable nudity and have a somewhat sexual inclination. I think we may get away with it being classified a PG if we keep the seductive scenes as innocent as possible. This would be better for us so that our video can be shown to a wider audience rather than being targeted at age 12 and over.
