Today, with it being review week we caught up on our previous work which has been my timeline and also me and my partner started producing our stortyboard, this meant we had to postpone our previous action which is on our schedule to take the photos for our final animation. I also changed my target audience because our teacher Adam Kelsall thought mine and my partners work was to similar.

In my prodution schedule, me and my partner abigail had discused that we would create our character, background and  final storyboard. This week we had to finish the characters but we just needed to finalise what they looked like and how we would make them move which we have decided to use paper fastener, we also created the background of the animation.

The difference between U and PG is that U is suitable to everybody and PG is suitable for chidlren who have a parents watching with.

The difference between PG and 12A is PG is suitable for younger audience and older audience but 12A is suitable for 12 years old but accompanied by a n adult.

The difference between 12A and 12, is the 12 you dont have to be accompanied by an adult.

The difference between 12 and 15 is  that there is more violence, language and mild nudity in a 15.

The difference between 15 and 18 is that you have to be 18 and there is more violence, nudity and strong language.

The difference between 18 and R18 is that R18 is more explict meaning everything is exposed and won't be held back on explict content.

The target audience we have chose is a 12, this is because we have mild violence.
