Abstract

This research aims to identify the representation of Chinese culture in the animated film Wish Dragon using John Fiske’s semiotic approach. The film presents Chinese culture through various cultural symbols, such as character portrayals, settings, traditional clothing, belief systems, and celebrations, all visually depicted. Behind these symbols lies the cultural meaning of Chinese traditions. The analysis was conducted using a qualitative method through John Fiske’s semiotic approach, which consists of three levels of coding: reality, representation, and ideology. Data collection techniques included observation of scenes in the film and source triangulation. The findings show that Wish Dragon represents Chinese culture through symbolic elements that reflect the values, traditions, and cultural identity of Chinese society. The film not only uses culture as a backdrop but also conveys it meaningfully to the audience.

Abstract

This study examines the construction of nationalist visual messages in the “Garuda” choreography (koreo) performed by the Ultras group “La Grande Indonesia” during the 2025 Indonesia vs. Bahrain national football match at Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium. A qualitative approach with a phenomenological method was employed to explore the subjective experiences of supporters regarding the visual messages presented. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Data analysis used triangulation of sources, methods, and theories to ensure the validity of findings. The results show that nationalist visual messages in the Garuda choreography are constructed through a combination of visual elements such as the Garuda symbol, the red-and-white national colors, slogan typography, and background visuals representing pride and unity. Supporters interpret this choreography as an expression of patriotism, a boost for the team’s spirit, and a collective identity that distinguishes them from other nations’ supporters. The choreography also creates cognitive consonance, where national symbols align with the beliefs and emotions of supporters, thereby reinforcing unity and nationalism. This study concludes that supporter choreography is not merely an aesthetic performance but an effective visual communication medium for instilling national values in public spaces. The findings are expected to contribute to the development of visual communication studies and creative practices in building a nationalist atmosphere through sports.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the phenomenon of the increasing use of TikTok as a source of information among Gen Z students, especially Communication Science students. In today's digital era, information consumption patterns have changed significantly; the younger generation tends to choose fast, concise, and interactive platforms such as TikTok. Through the Uses and Gratification theory, this study explains that students are not only passive recipients, but actively select, sort, and interpret content that suits their needs, both for entertainment and educational purposes. With a descriptive qualitative approach and in-depth interview and observation methods, researchers found that TikTok is used as an alternative media in finding light but meaningful information, especially related to social issues, academics, and public communication trends. Communication Science students show a selective attitude and are quite critical in assessing the accuracy and relevance of the content consumed. The results of this study indicate that TikTok is not only an entertainment media, but also a digital learning space that can encourage media literacy if utilized wisely. The contribution of this research is to provide a real picture of the dynamics of Gen Z information consumption, as well as a reference for educational institutions and policy makers to better understand the mindset of the younger generation in the era of fast-paced digital information.
