SEMIOTICS 
• The philosophical theory of signs and 
symbols and their role in social life. 
• From the Greek ‘sēmeiōtikos’ 
meaning "observant of signs“
• Ferdinand de Saussure was a swiss 
linguist who was one of the first to 
produce a semiotic theory during the 
early 1900s. His theory claimed a sign is 
made up of two parts- The SIGNIFIER 
and the SIGNIFIED 
SIGNIFIER- Any motion, gesture, image, 
sound, pattern or event that conveys 
meaning and communicates. (a word, 
colour, image etc.) 
SIGNIFIED- The concept, meaning or 
association that the sign refers to. 
For example- The colour BLUE is often 
associated with SADNESS
• Charles Sandres Peirce was an American 
philosopher that also formulated a 
semiotic theory in the early 1900s. Peirce 
stated semiotics to be the relationship 
between a SYMBOL, ICON and INDEX. 
SYMBOLS 
Signifier does not 
resemble the 
signified- is purely 
conventional 
INDEX 
Signifier is directly 
connected in 
some way to the 
signified 
ICONS 
Signs where the 
signifier resembles 
the signified
Denotation and Connotations links strongly to both 
theories. 
Denotation- The literal or primary meaning of a word 
Connotation- The feelings, ideas and cultural meanings 
which are associated with the word- not the literal meaning. 
Example- 
ROSE 
Denotation Connotation 
Flower Love 
Red Passion 
Thorns Hurt
Semiotics can benefit my magazine design through the use of 
colour relation. Certain colours have specific connotations 
therefore the audience associate specific colours with specific 
ideologies. 
Common colours used in rock magazine include red, black 
and yellow. Red has connotations of danger and power which 
links to the rock and roll lifestyle which is associated with rock 
music. Black has connotations of fear and mystery which, 
again links to the reckless lifestyle rock stars lead. It also links 
to the gothic image associated with rock music and how the 
gothic style consists of black clothing. Yellow has mixed 
connotations as it connotes warning and caution which could 
link to the rock and roll lifestyle. However, it is also a very 
bright, eye-catching colour with positive connotations which 
draws the reader in.

Semiotics research

  • 1.
  • 2. SEMIOTICS • The philosophical theory of signs and symbols and their role in social life. • From the Greek ‘sēmeiōtikos’ meaning "observant of signs“
  • 3. • Ferdinand de Saussure was a swiss linguist who was one of the first to produce a semiotic theory during the early 1900s. His theory claimed a sign is made up of two parts- The SIGNIFIER and the SIGNIFIED SIGNIFIER- Any motion, gesture, image, sound, pattern or event that conveys meaning and communicates. (a word, colour, image etc.) SIGNIFIED- The concept, meaning or association that the sign refers to. For example- The colour BLUE is often associated with SADNESS
  • 4. • Charles Sandres Peirce was an American philosopher that also formulated a semiotic theory in the early 1900s. Peirce stated semiotics to be the relationship between a SYMBOL, ICON and INDEX. SYMBOLS Signifier does not resemble the signified- is purely conventional INDEX Signifier is directly connected in some way to the signified ICONS Signs where the signifier resembles the signified
  • 5. Denotation and Connotations links strongly to both theories. Denotation- The literal or primary meaning of a word Connotation- The feelings, ideas and cultural meanings which are associated with the word- not the literal meaning. Example- ROSE Denotation Connotation Flower Love Red Passion Thorns Hurt
  • 6. Semiotics can benefit my magazine design through the use of colour relation. Certain colours have specific connotations therefore the audience associate specific colours with specific ideologies. Common colours used in rock magazine include red, black and yellow. Red has connotations of danger and power which links to the rock and roll lifestyle which is associated with rock music. Black has connotations of fear and mystery which, again links to the reckless lifestyle rock stars lead. It also links to the gothic image associated with rock music and how the gothic style consists of black clothing. Yellow has mixed connotations as it connotes warning and caution which could link to the rock and roll lifestyle. However, it is also a very bright, eye-catching colour with positive connotations which draws the reader in.
