Institutional regulations

Things

to bear in mind~

Copyright~

when making our production we won’t be able to use the same name that someone

else has used, the same production company name and logo. In addition if a film

with the same plot as us is in the making we may not be able to do our idea

because they may have put a patent of the application of the idea.

Equal

opportunities~ to avoid any criticism we should try and get a mix of male and

female actors and of different ethnic origin

Ethical

issues~ we should take into account what is right and wrong. For example we

shouldn’t exploit any people who agree to work with us, which means we

shouldn’t over work them or make them do something that they don’t feel

comfortable with. We will also need to be careful of using any offensive

materials as this could lead to people getting angry with us and maybe even

taking legal action.

Intellectual

property~ to avoid this we will need to make sure that if this sort of story

has been done before then we will not be able to use the idea and as a result

will need to change the story as to avoid any infringements.

Film

rating~ We need to make sure that our movie trailer is appropriate for the

specific audience which will be a 15 for our film. It will be this and not at

12A because the movie will exhibit themes of violence and maybe gore as

followed by the BBFC website which says what elements are needed for it to be

classed as a 15. Therefore it would be unsuitable for a 12 year old as they may

attempt to copy the actions shown in this movie.
