This study aims to examine the necessity of analysis of nonverbal elements on discourse, and describe the method of discourse material transcriptions. In previous studies, discourse analysis has focused on verbal elements. Nonverbal elements, however, take an important role in communication: not only does it complement the verbal element. The non-verbal element substitutes or conflicts with the verbal elements expressing a different meaning from the verbal elements alone. Therefore, for a complete understanding of discourse, nonverbal analysis is foreseeable. In this study, we will analyze head movement, face expressions, upper body and lower body movement, hand movement, and smiles. These are all nonverbal elements that happen between communicators in person during exchanges. Background pictures, sound effects, and subtitles are also considered to be nonverbal elements of communication though the difference between the two groupings are face-to-face exchanges; and video-type exchanges such as television programs where the exchange would be between the show and the viewers. Since this will study will focus only on television programming, further studies will be needed to satisfy the various purposes of discourse studies. This study will focus on building the transcription and annotation criteria of nonverbal elements on discourse analysis. Diverse genres of discourse should be added. Developing a program to transcribe and annotate the nonverbal elements simultaneously with the verbal elements, should also be included in later studies.
