For the first chapter if my dissertation I chose to look into semiotics and visual communication as it is the basis of communication and practical sign development. Throughout the chapter I will focus on what semiotics is, what makes up a sign, how semiotics relates to way finding signage and how sign systems work individually and within a sequence.

| Chapter One Plan |
For my chapter plans I often make quick notes to visualise the layout and understand how one element will flow into the next one. Sometimes they will be more detailed and sometimes very simple and empty, it all depends on how well the structure is organised already in my head. When I get confused with the flow of a chapter I will make more notes to refer back to but when I am confident I will only use quick short bullet points.
Sources I've used for this chapter:
Visual Communication: From Theory to Practice (Baldwin and Roberts)
Visible Signs: An Introduction to Semiotics in the Visual Arts (Crowe)
Course in General Linguistics (Ferdinand de Saussure)
Graphic Design as Communication (Barnard)
Communicating Design: Essays in Visual Communication (Triggs)
