Codes and Conventions

Today I have learnt about codes and conventions. There are two different types of code. The name of the codes are technical and symbolic codes.

Symbolic Code

Symbolic codes show what is beneath the surface of what we sede. For example, a character's actions show you how the character is feeling.

Technical Codes

Technical codes are all the ways in which equipment is used to tell the story in a media text. For exaple the cameral work in a film.
