1. Contact

This picture tells a story about the sister who excited to celebrate christmast with her

little brother. The image capturing the close relationship between the sister and her

little brother. She hugs her little brother with an eye contact and smiling face.

2. Character Focalization
In this picture from Chrismast is coming, the image of sister and her brother is visible,
emanating from the point where the reader is placed. In this case we can see the image
of the sister as a “protagonist” who treated her brother so well. She hugs him with a
smiling face and a warm eye contact.
3. Ideational Meaning
In the term of “ideational” metafuntion we add Kress and Van Leeuwen’s detailede
account of the possible experiential choice carried within an image.
A. Expansion relations
a. Comparison
Similarity may be foregrounded when images are presented with uniform size
and orientation within a symmetrical layout, creating a co-classification relation
(as discussed by Kress and van Leeuwen 1996); otherwise both similarity and
difference are simultaneously available and equally relevant.
The unfolding of events in time
The unfolding of events in time, leading narrative theorists to attend carefully to
such matters as the order in which events are related (e.g. a simple chronology
or one involving flashbacks, repetitions, etc.) and the variation in the amount of
text time expended on different events.
Simultaneity
This text is mainly a series of similar double pages, each of which has a full page
coloured image on the right and a colorfull images of things and a girl on the left
page. In these spreads, the right-hand page depicts sister and her younger brother
together and as we though the text, we begin to interpret “sister” as a loving
person in relation to the colorful things and her image represent her thought.

Conclusion
As meaning choices made within individual images. To exemplify, this chapter
has considered one aspect of interpersonal meaning (the contribution of visual
focalization to the construction of ‘point of view’) and one aspect of ideational
meaning (that of semantic relations between images depicting narrative
sequences).
