Semiotic film theory analyzes how meaning is conveyed through signs and codes in cinema. Films use various visual elements like lighting, shot composition, and juxtaposition of images to signify ideas beyond their literal meaning. Structuralist film theory emphasizes how simple combinations of shots can create additional implied meanings through cultural codes and conventions. Semiotic analysis involves examining signs like characters, props, and backgrounds to understand their denotations and cultural connotations, and how they relate through paradigmatic and syntagmatic relationships to construct meaning.

A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.

Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.

Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.

Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.

Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

3. How films โsignifyโ Semiotics is the study of signs; or, how films โsignifyโ A way of understanding how meaning is conveyed through the various methods human beings employ to convey messages. Body language Gesture Letters Words Pictures Visual Illustrations
5. In film, semiotics is a useful analytical tool for studying the ways by which visual images form a system for the communication of meaning. Any given moment can be rich in visual meaning. But, we cannot be too scientific about it. Sometimes a train is just a train.
6. (closely related to) Structuralism Elements within a structure do not possess meaning as individual units but gain their meaning through their relations to other elements. Structuralist film theory emphasizes how films convey meaning through the use of codes and conventions not dissimilar to the way languages are used to construct meaning in communication.
7. Structuralism An example of this is understanding how the simple combination of shots can create an additional idea: the blank expression on a person's face, an appetising meal, and then back to the person's face. While nothing in this sequence literally expresses hungerโor desireโthe juxtaposition of the images convey that meaning to the audience.
8.
9. Unraveling this additional meaning can become quite complex. Lighting, angle, shot duration, juxtaposition, cultural context, and a wide array of other elements can actively reinforce or undermine a sequence's meaning. Look at the following exercise. The meaning of the last frame has been created through the questions asked in the first few shots.
11. The sign A sign can be anything in a film shot (visual or aural) that stands for something else A personโs face A prop A background detail. There are three main components to remember: The (1)sign is composed of a (2)signifier -- the material form of the sign -- and (3)the signified -- the concept it represents. Sign -- The written word STOP Signifier -- The letters S-T-O-P Signified concept -- The motion category "stop" In semiotics, the sign is divided into two parts: the signifier and the signified
12. The signifier and the signified The signifier The aspect of the sign we perceive physically The signified The mental concept to which the sign refers. Meaning is conveyed by the relationship Signifier -------------------------------๏ Signified Denotation -------------------------------๏ Connotation
13. Denotation and Connotation In semiotics there are different 'orders of signification' (levels of meaning). Semioticians distinguish between denotation - what a sign stands for - and connotation - its cultural associations. Connotation involves emotional overtones, objective interpretation, socio-cultural values and ideological assumptions. A car can connote virility or freedom in Western cultures, and so on. Think about Midnight Cowboy. What do the following things connote? Joe Buckโs cowboy outfit The city street The greyhound bus
14. CODES Codes are the systems of meaning into which signs are organised. Different types of codes Cinematic Codes (eg Editing/shot types) Cultural Codes (eg class, status, handshakes) Generic Codes (Western/ Buddy ) Aesthetic Codes (gestures)
15. codes "The way we watch television and the way we perceive [everyday] reality are fundamentally similar, in that both are determined by conventions or codes. Reality is itself a complex system of signs interpreted by members of the culture in exactly the same way as are films and television programmes. (Fiske)
16. Paradigmatic and syntagmatic meaning If a film maker has chosen to employ a particular sign at one point from a range of possibilities that is a โparadigmaticโ choice. (e.g. what costume to choose for a character). If a sign is related to the signs that occur around it than that is a syntagmatic relationship. (e.g. the final shootout scene in The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly we see shots of eyes, guns and graves. They work together to create meaning.)
17. Myths Myths are โpowerful chains of conceptsโ by which we understand our world. (Think of the โmythโ of clean green New Zealand.) Myths are constructed but often appear natural, a part of reality itself. Is there a myth of Wellington College? Storyboard how you would present this myth in five shots. What myths are being presented in Midnight Cowboy?
18. Metonymy Metonymy refers to the ability of a sign to represent the โwholeโ of something while literally being only a part of it. The Eiffel Tower is a metonym for Paris, a palm fringed beach is a metonym for Tahiti, a TV news graphic of a tank passing a village church is a metonym for the war in Bosnia. Film uses metonyms a lot because as signifiers they are economic users of time in a text.
19. How to use Semiotics when reading a film โ (eg Midnight Cowboy) Semioticians look closely at film shots in order to break down their messages into systems of signs and codes. What signs are prominent in Midnight Cowboy? Think about how Joe Buckโs costume is a signifier. The radio. The greyhound bus Look at how the film subverts myths and codes. The American Dream The myth of the West. Generic Codes (i.e. Western codes subverted) What syntagmatic relationships can you uncover? Letโs watch some...
