ABSTRACT: International Publicity contains a variety of modal symbols including text, pictures and sound, and their meanings are expressive. It is conducive for the Communist Party of China to use international publicity to exhibit its images so as to build a good international public opinion environment for China. Based on the theory of visual grammar, this paper uses NVIVO software to analyse the Communist Party of China’s international publicity, focusing on the compositional, interactive and representational meanings of picture symbols in the video. It is found that CPC constructs the international image at life’s full flowering through multi-modal symbols.
