Film Classification

Our finished music video will contain no explicit or offensive material, the film will be rated universal (U) which means it can be viewed by anyone.

The subject of the video does however aim at a slightly older audience, perhaps 18-30. Most music videos do not contain explicit material unless aiming at a niche audience and I think if we are to get the audience we want, this means making the video completely straight so it can be enjoyed by all.

Feeder, whose music we are using for the video, aim for a similar type of audience to what we’re aiming for. We thought if we are going to make a video to their music we should look at previous work. A lot of their other videos can be viewed by all audiences, there’s no inappropriate material, just a simple video shoot with lots of effects to spruce it up.

Although I believe our video could be rated U I don’t want content in the video that will appeal to younger children as It would be going in the completely wrong direction of how we want the song and video as a whole to come across.

I think if we had an excuse or something in the video to make it worth a PG it would aim more at the proposed audience.
