Слайд 1The Motion Picture Association of America's (MPAA) film-rating system
She is used
in the United States (US) and its territories to rate a film's
suitability for certain audiences. The MPAA rating system is a voluntary scheme not enforced by law and films can be exhibited without a rating, though many theaters refuse to exhibit non-rated or NC-17 rated films. Non-members of MPAA may also submit films for rating.
Other media (such as television programs and video games) may be rated by other entities. The MPAA rating system is one of various motion picture rating systems used to help parents decide what films are appropriate for their children.
The MPAA's rating system is administered by the Classification & Ratings Administration (CARA), an independent agency.
Слайд 2General Audiences. All ages admitted. This movie contains nothing that
would offend parents for viewing by children. Such films may
contain only mild violence or crude humor, and may have no nudity, sex, drugs or coarse (as distinct from impolite) language. The discrimination/bullying and emotional intensity must be minimal. Alcohol and tobacco may be used in small amounts by adults in the movie, but not by minors, especially in older G-rated films. The violence or horror must be cartoonish in nature or minimal in quantity.
Слайд 3 Parental Guidance Suggested. Some material may not be suitable
for children. Parents are urged to give parental guidance as
the motion picture contains some material that parents might not find suitable for their pre-teenagers.
Слайд 4Parents Strongly Cautioned Parents are urged to be cautious as
the motion picture contains some material that parents might consider
inappropriate for children under 13 years.
Слайд 5No One 17 & Under Admitted. This film is exclusively
adult and people aged 17 years and under are not
admitted.
Слайд 6Restricted. People under 17 years may only be admitted if
accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Слайд 7Advertising materials
The MPAA also rates film trailers, print advertising, posters, and
other media used to promote a film. Trailers are commonly
referred to as "green band", "yellow band", or "red band" based on the rating given to the trailer by the MPAA. Green, yellow, or red title cards displayed before the start of a trailer indicates the trailer's rating.
Слайд 8Green band: approved for all or appropriate audiences; can be
shown before a film with any rating.
Until 2009, this
band read "The following preview has been approved for all audiences by the Motion Picture Association of America, Inc."
In 2009, "all audiences" was changed to "appropriate audiences."
In May 2013, in theater previews before a feature film (but not in previews independent of a feature film), the text was changed to "The following preview has been approved to accompany this feature by the Motion Picture Association of America, Inc.".
Слайд 9Yellow band: approved only for age-appropriate audiences; Internet trailers only.
Слайд 10Red band: approved for restricted audiences only; can be shown
before R, NC-17 or unrated films, but it cannot be
shown in unrated films that are released in theaters with a PG-13 rating. This band reads, "The following preview has been approved for restricted audiences only [or 'mature audiences only'] by the Motion Picture Association of America, Inc.".
Слайд 12Almost in every country there is a Rating system for
films and the there is no exception for Russia.
The first
RS appeared in the USSR which consisted of three categories:
-films for everyone
-films for everyone(except special sessions for children)
-films for people who are over 16 years old.
In the 90th this system was changed by Ministry of Education, Russian Goskino and Ministry of Culture. They added two categories:
-+12
-+18
Then in the 2005 system was changed again and there was one more category:
-+14
In 2005 making of RS was ended. The system was like American one, because Russians wanted to make it this way.
Слайд 13Finally, we have these categories:
1.+0
2.+12
3.+14
4.+16
5.+18
Слайд 14+0 is for everyone:
