Portfolio Task 4 (Semiotic Analysis)

Write a semiotic analysis comparing 2 similar images (or texts to use the correct semiotic terminology) of your choosing, ideally a piece of graphic design. The analysis only has to be about 250-500 words but you must attempt to use key semiotic language such as denote, connote, signify etc.

This website by Daniel Chandler should help you conduct your analysis.

This is also a useful example of a semiotic analysis of different newspaper articles.
