- Abstract
The internet era has changed the rules of social communication. In today’s digital age, communication mediums have provided the widest possible access to internet users. The hallmark of digital media is social semiotics that uses complex multimodalities (a combination of verbal and nonverbal signs, such as emoji, images, video, audio, and music). The multimodality of internet use can cause communication problems, leading to misunderstandings of the message. This paper aims to identify how to use narrative and multimodal communication in the new media age. The approach used was semiotics, which sees the media as a transmission medium of multimodal signs. This paper concludes that the use of multimodal communication can lead to communication problems due to the emergence of multiple interpretations. This research shows it is important for internet users to adopt a digital media culture (a critical attitude when responding to different things that they receive and spread).
