Main Task - Opening Sequence/Credits
Welcome to our blog which consists of research within our film genre, logo analysis, rough cuts, final cuts etc. Throughout the course we have been asked to produce an opening sequence for our main media product. Therefore we had many ideas on what we may and dont want to protray within our film, also since being a big class of 20+ students we wanted to be different and do a genre that nobody else is doing.

Firstlt, we had to come with a productions name for our group at first we didnt have no idea unitl we tried to put all our names together being Joyce, Emily and Elizabeth. We then thought 'JEE' or 'EEJ' but they didnt seem very professional or catchy so then by changin my name 'Elizabeth' to my 'Liz' we came up with 'JEL' this suited our group very well and we all had agreed on it.

Then we had to think what could our film be about, the plot, genre etc, we decided to do a questtionaire for others to have feedback on what genre they wouldnt mind seeing and out of this we had 'Dance' which was really good since dance conveys alot of moods, feelings so this would be a good chance to show off these aspects.

Whereas the tuffest thing to decide was the name of the name!







Target Audience

The British Board of Film Classification classifies films on behalf of the local authories who license cinemas under the Licensing Act 2003. Using the guidelines of BBFC, our film would be clasiffied under as a PG. This stands for Parental Guidence. Meaning that parents might wish to check up on it before showing it to their younger children. It might have some violence. If its romantic it might have some sexy scenes or very brief nudity. It also might have some of the milder swearwords such as Stupid, idiot, etc.
I think that this fits well with our film as our film is based around rivalry between young dancers from both ballet and street. Our film with not contain a lot of violence besides the odd pushing here and there and the aggressive attitudes between the dancers. As well as that our media production does not contain any sex scenes or nudity besides the dresscode for some of the female street dancers that will wear half tops or shorts and show a little bit of skin. I think overall parents would not mind letting their younger children watch our production as it is not too explicit or over exposed for the younger audiences.
In conclusion these classifications are made so that younger children, children and teenagers are not exposed to material that could influence them to imitate or expose them to the images which may affect them. These classifications are taken very seriously in the UK and around the world in cinemas and DVD stores such as HMV.
