Reception Theory


1) What is the preferred reading of a media text?
 How the producer wants the audience to view the media.

2) What is the oppositional reading of a media text?
When the audience rejects the preferred reading, and creates their own meaning for the text.

3) What do the producers of the trailer want the audience to think about the teenagers and young people in the film?The trailer wants to show and present the teenagers as aggressive and violet people. 

4) Why might some young people feel the way teenagers are presented in the trailer is unfair?  
Some young people might think the trailer is unfair  because not all young people are violent and aggressive and it is just a stereotype.
