Semiotics is defined as the study of the social production of meaning from sign systems; the analysis of anything that can stand for something else. A sign is the combination of its signifier and signified. The signifier of the sign is defined as the physical form of the sign as we perceive it through our senses or an image. Basically it’s what the person sees. While the signified is the meaning associated with the sign. For example an example of a sign would be the Batman symbol. The signifier of this sign is the bat that shines up in the sky and is on Batman’s costume. The signified for this sign would be the Batman himself.
