Semiotics


I found this lecture quite interesting, as i i could relate to what what was being talked about,
Semiotics is about how we view things, for example we can automatically tell who is the hero and who is the villain.
If we see a character dressed in bright colour clothes with cheerful expressions we automaticly think that that character is the good guy, were as when we see a character in dark clothes with stern, angry features, its the opposite and we assume thats the bad guy. Our brains relate to the colours and appearance confirming how we identify the ch
aracters. Such as in spiderman he is dressed in bright red and blue when he is the hero, but his costume turns black when he becomes evil, creating an interesting switch to how we see the character.
