Goffman describes three sign-vehicles – social setting, appearance, and manner. These are the devices used by people to communicate information about themselves. The setting is the place where the action takes place and includes scenery, or the furnishings you use to communicate messages. Appearance indicates how we look or play the role and includes the props people use to convey information by decorating themselves (clothing, hairstyle, etc). Manner indicates the attitudes we demonstrate as we play our roles.
