Abstract	This chapter points to a recent surge of interest in the study of emotions in digital media and their multimodal expression in late modernity. The broad reach of digital texts in globally networked environments affords new meanings, and emotions are mediated differently. The chapter outlines and applies a multimodal semiotic framework to analyse the communication of emotions in filmic media produced by young people, including visual and musical elements and their interrelationships.
