This document defines several key terms and concepts in media analysis including typography, tag lines, technical codes, and iconography. It also summarizes theories of narrative and codes by Claude Lévi-Strauss and Roland Barthes. Lévi-Strauss argued that all narratives can be reduced to binary opposites, while Barthes believed that texts can be interpreted through five codes: the hermeneutic code referring to mysteries; the proairetic code referring to plot actions; the semantic code giving additional meaning; the symbolic code organizing broader meanings; and the referential code founded on canonical works.
