ONE WORD to define it…
Stuart Hall Reception Theory• Passive vs Active audience
• Reception Theory
• Extending the concept of an active audience in the 1980s and 1990s a lot of work was done on the way individuals received and interpreted a text, and how their individual circumstances (gender, class, age, ethnicity) affected their reading.
• This work was based on Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding model of the relationship between text and audience - the text is encoded by the producer, and decoded by the reader, and there may be major differences between two different readings of the same code.
• Preferred/dominant
• Negotiated
• Oppositional
e.g. gender affects the reading: boys laugh at violence in a film but girls find it upsetting…
What different readings could this create?

• Make connections to present a coherent argument and offer

• Point: I think Britain is represented as royals more than rioters.• Evidence: During the royal wedding, people all over the country had
street parties, over 5, 500 according to guardian.co.uk.• Explain: This connotes a sense of unity in Britain and represents
British people as patriotic because they support the royal family.
