More Semiotics ;D

Semiotics can play a very interesting part in my opening sequence project.
As i only have up to 2/2:30 minutes maximum of time, signifiers can influence an idea or point very simply through bringing in a certain object, symbol, sound, action or colour. For instance, if i wanted to show haste in my filming, i could have sounds of heavy breathing or foot steps.
i watched a previous A level piece and they has a lot of haste/running and then stopping, in between these shots they has the traffic lights changing rapidly, this is a signifier, representational of the running and stopping.
i plan to use signifiers in my opening sequence as they encourage a deeper meaning to what is being shown.
