Audience Effects Theory

BLUE PLANET II

1) Passive audience - The information from the media that has the same effect on everyone

2) Active audience - The information from the media that makes people interact with and  make              choices regardless the media they consume

3) Hypodermic needle theory - The audience takes in the intended message from the producer                  without disagreeing with anything.

4 )
      INFORMATION/SURVEILLANCE

     Blue planet - This fits information/surveillance because from watching the TV show you learn             new information and also their is close surveillance of the creatures of the sea.

     IDENTITY:
 
     Ball in the family - This fits identity because your lifestyle could be as devoted basketball also             like the character in the TV show therefore you relate to the TV Show.

     DIVERSION/ENTERTAINMENT

      One Piece - This fits diversion/entertainment because the anime is unrealistic . Therefore you are         able to escape into a different world, a world full of pirates and  super human strengths / power.

     RELATIONSHIPS

     Baywatch - This fits relationships because the main actors - Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron-               could be childhood favourite actors of yours, someone you look up to / want to be when you're           older.
   

    5) Blue Planet II uses vicarious pleasures by showing the people of the world what life is like                 under the ocean and this is also an example of information/surveillance as you get learn new               things about the ocean and the creatures living there.It is also diversion/entertainment because             you are escaping your normal life as the TV show makes you feel like you're the person                       exploring the world.

Blog feedback and Learner Response

WWW: Your blog reflects the excellent start you’ve made in Media – well done! I’m impressed that you’re writing in some depth from the very first blog task this year – that’s a brilliant sign and suggests you’ve got the right attitude and should definitely be aiming for those top grades. I’m particularly impressed with the Skyscraper film poster analysis – the fact you’re already using media language such as ‘sans-serif’ font is an extremely good sign (I imagine you’ve been speaking to other Media students to help you here but that’s not a bad thing!)
