Classification of ''PG''

‘PG’

Parental Guidance

General viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for young children

Unaccompanied children of any age may watch. A ‘PG’ film should not disturb a child aged around eight or older. However, parents are advised to consider whether the content may upset younger or more sensitive children.

Discrimination

Discriminatory language or behaviour is unlikely to be acceptable unless clearly disapproved of or in an educational or historical context. Discrimination by a character with which children can readily identify is unlikely to be acceptable.

Drugs

References to illegal drugs or drug misuse must be innocuous or carry a suitable anti-drug message.

Horror

Frightening sequences should not be prolonged or intense. Fantasy settings may be a mitigating factor.

Imitable behaviour

No detail of potentially dangerous behaviour which young children are likely to copy. No glamorisation of realistic or easily accessible weapons.

Language

Mild bad language only.

Nudity

Natural nudity, with no sexual context.

Sex

Sexual activity may be implied, but should be discreet and infrequent. Mild sex references and innuendo only.

Theme

Where more serious issues are featured (for example, domestic violence) nothing in their treatment should condone unacceptable behaviour.

Violence

Moderate violence, without detail, may be allowed, if justified by its context (for example, history, comedy or fantasy).

Classification of ''u''

'U’

Universal – Suitable for all


It is impossible to predict what might upset any particular child. But a ‘U’ film should be suitable for audiences aged four years and over. ‘U’ films should be set within a positive moral framework and should offer reassuring counterbalances to any violence, threat or horror.

If a work is particularly suitable for a pre-school child to view alone, this will be indicated in the Consumer Advice.

Discrimination

No discriminatory language or behaviour unless clearly disapproved of.

Drugs

No references to illegal drugs or drug misuse unless they are infrequent and innocuous, or there is a clear educational purpose or anti-drug message suitable for young children.

Horror

Scary sequences should be mild, brief and unlikely to cause undue anxiety to young children. The outcome should be reassuring.

Imitable behaviour

No potentially dangerous behaviour which young children are likely to copy. No emphasis on realistic or easily accessible weapons.

Language

Infrequent use only of very mild bad language.

Nudity

Occasional natural nudity, with no sexual context.

Sex


Mild sexual behaviour (for example, kissing) and references only (for example, to ‘making love’).

Theme


While problematic themes may be present, their treatment must be sensitive and appropriate for young children.

Violence

Mild violence only. Occasional mild threat or menace only.

Children's film homework research



High school musical 2
This film is obviously aimed at children aged 7-14 years because the shots used and music comes together in a young playful film. The plot of the film wasn't too complex so it could allow children to follow it without confusion. The songs played are songs that anyone could sing along to making it fun and interactive. The stereotypical characters are exaggerated to help tell the story flow.

There are a number of shots put together franticly to create a sense of excitement and liveliness. At first the camera tracks around the school, to remind people of what happened in the last film. This happens slowly with one of the popular HSM's songs instrumental, one shot fading into another.

Within the first 2 minutes of the film a  song comes in that everybody can dance and sing to. It portrays the film as excitable and energetic, instantly getting people involved. The mise-en-scene is very colour coordinated, always the same colours of red and white. These colours set the film out to be very pure and innocent, also the colour white  shows something to be clean and fresh, much like this film.
