From time to time, students doing dissertation works need to deal with still images, e.g. interpreting photos. In this case, they will find it useful to apply semiotic analysis. The major steps involved are as follows
Step 1: Choose the images to be analyzed
Step 2: Compile a denotational inventory
Step 3: Examine higher levels of signification
Step 4: Decide when to stop analysis process
Step 5: Select reporting/ presentation forma.
