Learning Objectives:
• Learn a variety of theories on audience.

• Understand how to answer question 1b on
  audience.

• Decide which of your productions you
  would write about for a question on
  audience.
The Hypodermic NeedleModel
    The Hypodermic Needle Model
• 1920s attempt to explain how mass audiences might
  react to mass media

• Audiences passively receive the information

• Audiences do not process or challenge the data
  so the information is unmediated .
The Hypodermic Needle Model
• As an audience, we are manipulated by the creators of media
  texts, and our behaviour can be easily changed by media-
  makers

• Audience are passive and heterogenous



• This model is quoted during moral panics
Stuart hall and
reception theory
McDonalds want you to think....
You may agree

       Or.....

  You may disagree
Or.....

You may think that big macs do taste good,
but I’ll only have them every now and again
So here we have three separate readings of
that one advert
The preferred or
dominant reading
is the reading media
   producers hope
 audiences will take
    from the text.
The audience may reject
   the preferred reading,
     receiving their own
alternative message. This is
  an opposition reading.
Negotiated reading is
      when audiences
acknowledge the preferred
  reading, but modify it to
 suit their own values and
 opinions – a compromise.
Stuart Hall – Encoding/Decoding

• Dominant – ‘flag waving patriot who
  responds to George Bush’s latest speech’.
• Oppositional – ‘the pacifist who
  understands the speech but rejects it’.
• Negotiated – ‘the viewer who agrees with
  the need for a response to Sept. 11th but
  doesn’t agree to the military means
  announced’.
Uses & Gratifications
• 1960s – generation had grown up with TV

• audiences make choices about what they do
  when consuming texts




• audiences made up of individuals who
  actively consume texts for different
  reasons and in different ways
Uses & Gratifications
Blumer and Katz (1974) state a text might be used for the
  following purposes:

• Diversion - escape from everyday problems and routine.

• Personal Relationships - using the media for emotional
  and other interaction, eg) substituting soap operas for
  family life

• Personal Identity - finding yourself reflected in texts,
  learning behaviour and values from texts

• Surveillance - Information which could be useful for
  living eg) weather reports, financial news, holiday
  bargains
Audience
• How useful is the concept of audience in
  understanding your work?
• Who is your target audience? How did you
  develop your target audience?
• How does your production appeal to your
  target audience?
• What uses and gratifications will the target
  audience get from the production?
Sample Question
  “Media texts will never be
  successful unless they are
carefully constructed to target
established audience needs or
           desires.”

  Evaluate the ways that you
constructed your media text to
  target a specific audience.

  • 15. Audience • How useful is the concept of audience in understanding your work? • Who is your target audience? How did you develop your target audience? • How does your production appeal to your target audience? • What uses and gratifications will the target audience get from the production?
  • 16. Sample Question “Media texts will never be successful unless they are carefully constructed to target established audience needs or desires.” Evaluate the ways that you constructed your media text to target a specific audience.
