सारांश	Visual elicitation semiotic analysis is a qualitative approach that uses visual materials — photographs, images, film stills, or artefacts — as stimuli to provoke participant accounts, then subjects both the images and the participant-generated responses to semiotic analysis to unpack layers of denotative and connotative meaning. The method bridges the participatory strengths of photo-elicitation with the sign-system rigour of semiotics, making it especially productive in cultural, media, and social identity research.	Multimodal Discourse Analysis is a method for examining how meaning is created through the integration of multiple modes of communication: language, image, sound, gesture, and spatial arrangement. Developed by Gunther Kress, Theo Van Leeuwen, and others, this approach recognizes that in contemporary communication—from videos to websites to classrooms—meaning is rarely conveyed by language alone. By analyzing how text, visuals, sound, and other modes work together, multimodal analysis reveals how complex meanings are constructed.
