Today was an interesting class because we talked about one thing that would be the basis of our big paper to come near the end of the semester.
Semiotic analysis seems like an interesting concept, and after taking part of the discussion in this class, it seems completely logic. We discussed how the universe is a closed system, and that everything derives from something else originally. I think this is true because everything evolved from either the big bang or from any of the other ideas containing information on how humans got to earth. Semiotics deals with signs and text in the media, and the main thing I got out of this discussion is that we need to be skeptical of things different commercials, advertisements, and figures are telling us because it may just be in order to pursuade us to buy a product or something else.
From watching just a few commercials on youtube or on the television I really saw different things in the commercials just by taking a second look at them, and it is important for me to be able to see these things in the future of my media studies career!
