Semiotics

In today's lesson which occurred on the 7th September 2015. we looked at the meanings behind the words, semiotic, denotation and connotation. With the new techniques i have learnt i am now going to apply them to a poster of one of my favorite films.


                          This film poster represents the newest X-men film, days of futures past.
This poster gives a wide variety of all the different and unusual characters and what they represent, for example wolverine is stood at the front with giant claws and dressed in all black, usually this would represent death and then associated with a bad person. However wolverine is on the good side and always has been, although most peoples initial thought would be that he is on the bad from this picture. Also to the left the background is a misty orange and yellow with flying robots in the sky which shows it is the dangerous side as it is contrasted with the bright blue sky which is seen as a more happy background rather than the fiery one next to it.
