  What effects theway in which an audience responds to a media text and the ways you think an audience might respond to your film opening ? • When the audience gives a response to a movie to an average communication, since they have to give their opinion, this can be better or worse. If the opinion of the public is good, obviously this will be positive, since it will be seen that the director has wanted to do the best he can and that has taken into account the audience and has tried to impress and that they like the audience. • On the other hand, when the comment is not good, but we have liked what they have seen, even if the director has been frazzled in making the film, the director has to have many things in mind when making the film, Always right and you have to think that the audience is very important too.
