Abstract

This research explores the intersection of algorithmic curation and brand authenticity on Instagram, focusing on @scarlettofficial. In a digital landscape governed by engagement-driven algorithms, brands face a tension between high-fidelity production and consumer demand for unvarnished authenticity. Utilizing a netnographic approach (July–September 2025) and grounded theory analysis, this study investigates how the strategic deployment of low-fidelity User-Generated Content (UGC) serves as a structural bridge to bypass algorithmic gatekeeping. Findings reveal that @scarlettofficial navigates the "pseudo-individuality" trap by integrating raw, peer-driven visual assets into its marketing matrix. These low-fidelity markers—characterized by natural lighting and informal narratives—function as potent social proof, fostering deep discursive engagement that satisfies both algorithmic metrics and the psychological need for authenticity. This study contributes to digital communication theory by framing authenticity as a dynamic, algorithmically mediated social construction.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi komunikasi pemasaran digital yang dilakukan oleh akun Instagram @jcoindonesia dalam menyambut Selebrasi Hari Kemerdekaan Indonesia 2025, dengan fokus pada aspek promosi dan kemasan konten (content packaging). Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis isi (qualitative content analysis) terhadap unggahan berupa feed, Reels, dan Story selama periode 1 – 31 Agustus 2025. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa J.CO memanfaatkan momen kemerdekaan tidak hanya untuk meningkatkan penjualan melalui promo “Sweet Freedom” dan “Freedom Deals”, tetapi juga membangun kedekatan emosional dengan audiens melalui narasi patriotik, visual merah-putih, dan storytelling. Secara semiotik, elemen-elemen tersebut mencerminkan makna denotatif berupa simbol nasional serta makna konotatif berupa kebanggaan dan persatuan (Barthes, 1977; Hammar & Johansson, 2024). Engagement tertinggi ditemukan pada konten berbentuk Reels karena memadukan visual dinamis, audio tematik, dan call-to-action yang jelas. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa sinergi antara strategi promosi, kemasan konten, dan pemanfaatan momen budaya mampu memperkuat brand awareness, brand image, dan customer engagement. Artinya, keberhasilan kampanye tidak hanya ditentukan oleh penawaran diskon, tetapi juga oleh kemampuan merek membangun makna, emosi, dan identitas budaya dalam ruang digital.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the paradigm shift of corporate communication to digital platforms, specifically the strategic role of Instagram in the religious travel industry to build public trust and corporate image. The purpose of this study is to analyze the communication strategy of the @rahmahtravel.id account, identify the visual and narrative elements shaping its corporate image, and explain Instagram's contribution to this image formation. The research method used is qualitative with a constructivism paradigm. Data was collected through upload observation, documentation, and literature study, and subsequently analyzed using qualitative content analysis focusing on integrated visual-verbal discourse. The results show that @rahmahtravel.id's communication strategy is built upon a harmonious synergy between visual aesthetics (representation of collective piety and professional facilities) and the power of linguistic narratives (the use of spiritual metaphors, lexicons of trust, and warm imperative structures). Instagram contributes by transforming monological communication patterns into participatory interactions (co-creation of meaning). The impact of this research provides empirical evidence that intersemiotic integration on social media effectively projects a religious and professional corporate image, which serves as a crucial foundation for safeguarding the company's reputation from trust crises while building long-term customer loyalty.

Abstract

The expansion of digital media has transformed domestic spaces into arenas for the commodification of children's leisure time, disrupting family communication structures. Departing from the dominant literature that views shifts in parental authority solely through a relational lens, this qualitative single-case study examines digital parenting practices through the critical paradigm of the Political Economy of Media and the Culture Industry. Located in the peri-urban area of Depok, this study analyzes the tactics of a full-time stay-at-home mother in mitigating algorithmic hegemony over her three children (aged 11, 8, and 5). Data were gathered through naturalistic non-participant observation and in-depth interviews. The findings reveal that children's consistent preference for YouTube content (such as reaction videos and gameplay) is not a manifestation of free choice but rather an expression of pseudo-individuality constructed by the platform's addictive design. The mother responds to this exploitation of attention capitalism through moral curation by offering educational alternatives; however, these efforts are frequently thwarted. As an ultimate resolution, the mother reclaims the children's cognitive space by enforcing absolute biological routines (nap and bath times) and accompanying them with vocal escalation. This physical and repressive approach proves to be the most effective instrument for de-commodification to sever the digital screen's annexation. This article enriches the discourse of critical communication studies by positioning household routines as micro-resistance instruments against technological commercialization.
