hmm... I think the emblems aren't related to Semblance at all. Weiss and Jaune are using family crests (Schnee, and Arc), whereas Yang and Ruby seem to have a personal motif. The others are mostly unknowns. Semblance wise, I really need to know more about the semblances to comment, but I kinda thought they were based off the user's personality somehow, in which case the vissible manifestation would also reflect them. Certainly Blake's shadows are rather subtle and understated compared to her teammates, Yang's is excessive and noisy, and for Weiss, a gigantic sign with her family crest on it is rather appropriate for that level of pride. Of course, it's almost certain I've got that entirely wrong, so no guarantees.
