Vantage Point - Reception Theory


Vantage Point  - Reception Theory.

1 – “Reception theory is a version of reader response literary theory that emphasizes the reader's reception of a literary text.”
“An active audience theory which sees the audience as being actively engaged in the interpretation of media texts rather than as passive consumers.”

2 - My experience of watching vantage point could have been different if I had watched it in a different environment with different people. I may not have concentrated on the film and story line if I had watched it in a different environment as there might have been too many distractions, for example. Loud noises. If I watched it with different people I may have paid more attention and found it less humorous. Depending on what the age of the people are that you are watching the film with depends on the concentration.

  1. Where did you get the first quote from?

    You need to discuss how where you watched the film changed your reception, your not just discussing how it could have been different if you watched it in another environment. You need to actually discuss your experience.
