Tóm tắt	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.	Visual analysis is a qualitative research approach that systematically examines visual materials — such as photographs, films, artworks, advertisements, and diagrams — to understand how meaning is produced, communicated, and interpreted. Drawing on traditions from art history, semiotics, and social science, it treats visual objects as data that carry social, cultural, and ideological significance. Multiple frameworks exist, from formal compositional analysis to discourse-based and audience-reception approaches.
