Regulation and Censorship.
I am thinking of doing a psychological thriller, so I have decided to put the trailer at a 15 rating because I want the trailer to still be shown on TV at later prime times (9:00 onwards) and by having it at this rating it will be able to get out to the mass market and appeal to my audience. By making it a 15, I may need to change certain aspects on my trailer and carefully choose the clips I will use as it will have to meet guidelines and be appropriate for the times it will be shown but still keep the thriller and scary aspect to the trailer.
As stated before I am thinking of doing a psychological thriller, so we have decided that the best certificate for the film will be an 18, by giving it an 18 rating it will allow us to push the boundaries with certain clips/scene and the guidelines are a lot easier to work with, within our chosen genre. For example, with an 18 rather than hinting at certain aspects it can be shown and we can use scarier scenes e.g. jump scenes and maybe violence or gore if the film contains that.
