Semiotics: What We Don’t See In Movies



FilmInTheMaking

In this video I look at the way Semiotic theory is used in films to tell story as well as elaborating on characters and themes.

Leaving a like helps me out a lot.

  1. It's interesting to point out in every film since the inception of movie making in the 19th century, the semiotic paradigms can have certain bright colors as a concept for happiness; and certain dark and grimy colors to suit the presentation of something sinister and wicked could happen for a number of scenes. And they're prime examples too.

  2. Was never that observant. Something passes in front of my eyes and I don't even notice it. I should probably develop the skill. What do you suggest? Another great video.

  3. You've earned another follower here, but don't be in such a rush in your videos!
    We've all come to see the content because we find it interesting/whatever, so we actually want to sit down and go over it with you, take your time, enjoy the ride and so will we my friend. Or maybe i'm just imposing onto you my preference for longer videos, who knows.

  4. there is a relation.Women who invented writting would agree with the second a T looks like a tree trunk with two branches. no one likes people who over thik stuff make complicated or artist who use complated large words for shw when a smaller one would look better. This is not a metaphor but explanation or stereotype.

  5. There are a lot of detail in "eyes wide shut." It's ironic that you'd mentioned "Alien." I was thinking about this before you brought it up. One scene that hits me is a scene where the crew are wearing a rainbow logo. Something that I'd picked up on a few years ago. But the rainbow is also in "The shining" and can be seen as a reflection in the scene "eyes wide shut", where Bill is talking to the hooker before the bedroom scene. Speaking of that scene, noticed the tiger on the bed? The tiger is facing her, when she's talking to Bill. When Bill replies to her question, the scene shifts back and the the position of the tiger changes. His tail and butt is now facing her. My guess is that the change of position and metaphor pointing out, Bill's sexual short comings. In the movie, his sex opportunities are always interrupted some kind of way. Salvador Dali also used tigers in his paintings and interesting enough, had a not so good experience regarding sex coming up from childhood to adult.
