Active Audience: An active audience is one that actively engages with the text. They do not simply accept every media message. They question what they see and develop their own interpretation
Passive Audience:A passive audience does not actively engage with a media text. A passive audience is one that does not question the message that the media is sending and simply accepts the message in the way the media outlet intended.
Audience Reception Theory definitions: Audience Reception theory-the media text is not simply passively accepted by the audience but the audience interprets the meaning based on their life experiences. for example, a group with similar backgrounds will understand the text in similar ways. the less shared heritage the audience has with the creator the less the audience will be able to recognise the artist intended message. for example if you watch 12 years a slave and you know that your heritage/ancestor was a slave you might see the film interprets differently.

Monster
Monster's target audience is teenagers, mostly sporty teenagers that enjoy outdoor activities. We know because it is an energy drink and the logo and colour of the product is bright to dark colors with bold, plain writing. Also, it is appealing to teenagers because it's in a big tall can containing up to 500ml so it's aesthetics are different to most brands which make it stand out in the market. The drink has a sweet, buzzing and addictive taste so after one the audience will have one once in a while.
Fanta
Fanta is a very fizzy and also fruity drink that comes in many flavours. For example fruit twist is mixed with all kind of fruits and a recent one called peach. The can is very colourful and depending in what flavour the colours they are. It can be different for example fanta peach: Pink. Also, the font is bold and funky which make it look ex-sighting to the audience which would be 5-13 year old boys and girls. The bottle shape has a nice curved grip shape that makes it comfortable to drink from. So it is eye catching to most children and teenagers because it is a odd shape. Also there are many different flavours so they change the colour of the liquid so that is a big feature that can catch peoples eye for example, What was that drink.
KA
KA target audience is teenagers because they have sweet different flavours, For example, Caribbean Cola and fruit punch. Not many brands have these type of flavours which makes teenagers fell encouragable to drink this different drink. It is excitingly displayed in a can with dark colours and a simple cover. The font is bold and colourful so that your getting a dark background then colourful font and logo. My favourite flavour for this particular drink is Fruit punch. I do not know many drinks that have the flavour Fruit punch it's very tasteful with a sweet and tangy taste, giving the customer an taste sensation and that feeling of An tropical drink
