The encoding stage of communication involves the sender using language and other symbols to craft a message that will be received by the receiver. Framing, which involves selecting certain aspects of the message to highlight and present in a particular way, is the process of shaping the perceptions of the recipient. The use of rich, colorful, and carefully selected language is an example of framing, as it seeks to influence how the recipient understands and interprets the message. Therefore, choice B, framing, is the best answer.
