Sintesi	Semiotics in Film Studies is a systematic method for analyzing how film produces meaning through signs, codes, and symbolic systems. Developed from linguistic semiotics and adapted to cinema by scholars like Roland Barthes, Christian Metz, and Umberto Eco, it examines how visual, auditory, and narrative elements function as signs—consisting of signifier (the form taken by the sign) and signified (the concept it represents)—to create meaning. The method reveals that cinema is not transparent communication but a complex coded system where understanding requires learning film's specific sign conventions.	Media Framing Analysis is a systematic method for examining how news coverage and media messages organize and present information in ways that promote particular interpretations while obscuring others. Originating in Erving Goffman's sociological work (1974) and developed extensively by communication scholars like Robert Entman, the method decodes the frames—organizing principles and narrative structures—embedded in news reports, films, advertising, and public discourse. It reveals how media selections of what to emphasize, what to omit, and what narrative context to provide shape audience understanding of events and issues.
