Semiotics

Semiotics are used in everyday life and are also used in all films. Semiotics are used in films to the the audience what something means. For example:

This image of Tony Stark (aka Iron Man) shows him in his garage surrounded  by Cars and machinery whilst he is wearing his metal iron man suit. The cars in the background show me that Tony is a very wealthy man who can afford expensive items. The machinery shows me that he likes to create and put things together like cars and the Iron man suit he is currently wearing. The fact       that he can build his own equipment also tells me that he is very intelligent.


In this image we see Oliver twist. By his clothes we are able to tell that he does not own a lot as he has not got money. By his facial expressions we are able to tell that he is upset and is sad. The bowl in his hand shows that he is hungry and could also tell us that he is not fed a lot of food.










In this image we see the joker within a prison cell who seems to have a smug look on his face. From this image we can tell that the joker is a bad person as he is in prison. Also the style of his hair and make-up can show that he is crazy and can be insane. His look on his face can mean that he planning something...maybe a prison escape?
