Regulators or regulatory bodies view and assess the suitability of content for different media products.It is important in pre-production as the producer needs to make sure that no laws are being broken so that they know what audience the product is suitable for. This is a legal requirement. Regulatory bodies create policies which the producers can follow so that they aren't being broken and therefore being illegal.
All regulators are independent so that they are impartial and it does not influence them.
