BBFC
The U symbol stands for Universal. A U film should be suitable for audiences aged four years and over. However, it is impossible to predict what might upset a particular child, especially at this lower end of the category range.
Characters may be seen kissing or cuddling and there may be references to sexual behaviour. However, there will be no overt focus on sexual behaviour, language or innuendo.
PG stands for Parental Guidance. This means a film is suitable for general viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for young children. A PG film should not unsettle a child aged around eight or older. Parents should consider whether the content may upset younger, or more sensitive, children.(cool running)
There may be mild bad language (such as ‘shit’ or ‘son of a bitch’) in a PG film, but the context and delivery are always important..
Sex references are unlikely unless they are underutilized and infrequent. In addition, if a child is unlikely to understand a reference, we may allow it at PG. Comedy can also often lessen the impact of sex references and innuendo.(In the Simpson there is a teacher called miss hover and in one of the scene they say i see why they call you miss hover)
The 12A requires an adult to accompany any child under 12 seeing a 12A film at the cinema. This is enforced by cinema staff and a cinema may lose its license if adult accompaniment is not enforced for children under 12 admitted to a 12A film.
The BBFC's Guidelines state that strong language (e.g. 'f***') may be passed at 12 or 12A, depending on the manner in which it is used, who is using the language, its frequency and any special contextual justification. There is some allowance for puns on strong language at this category.
No-one under 15 is allowed to see a 15 film at the cinema or buy/rent a 15 rated video.
sex references run throughout the film and you may see a sex scene and some on people parts.
There will be strong violent acts throughout the film.
No-one under the age of 18 may be allowed to see this film
There will be strong language throughout the film with word as F*** and C***.
there will be sexual content in this film at all the time

This film is a 15 because it uses strong language throughout the film and sexual content in this film and also shows off a robbery which is looked down on as you are stealing someone else hard work and what they payed for.

This film is a 12 as it contestant some sexual content and violent content which for younger views might be inappropriate.
I would say for are group which contants me Dom and Nathan and as a group we have decided that are short film will be at a 15 as we believe that it would be unsuitable for people under that age range as they might see it as ok to start to kill people with teddy bears
Good work Sam, you may want to add the images to this post.
