Abstract

Rejang Inyeng  is a sacred dance preserved in Tiyingan Village, Petang District, Badung Regency. Performed by young girls before menstruation during the Purnama Kapat and Purnama Kedasa ceremonies, the dance functions as a ritual to welcome deities. However, its continuity faces challenges due to limited academic documentation and a hiatus during the pandemic. This study aims to represent the symbolic meaning of Rejang Inyeng  through documentary film as a cultural preservation strategy. The research employed a qualitative approach by combining Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotics, visual ethnography, and the Save the Cat narrative model. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, literature studies, and documentation, while information tracing was guided by the concept of Catur Guru and the Glass Box method. Analysis was conducted by linking signifiers, such as dance movements and performers, with signifieds such as purity, sanctity, and cultural regeneration, further deepened through the concept of Dasa Aksara. The findings indicate that the documentary effectively represents the symbolism of Rejang Inyeng  in a communicative way, serving not only as a visual archive but also as an educational and cultural transmission medium. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of Saussurean semiotics with Dasa Aksara, the application of Catur Guru in data exploration, and the adaptation of Save the Cat within a sacred documentary.

Abstract

Acculturation is a significant phenomenon in cultural development that occurs when two or more cultures interact and influence each other. One enduring example of acculturation in Bali is the use of kepeng coins, locally known as Pis Bolong, which originally functioned as a medium of exchange in traditional economic systems. Over time, kepeng coins underwent a substantial transformation, particularly serving as ritual instruments in Hindu religious ceremonies. The urgency of this study lies in the decreasing availability of kepeng coins in the modern era and their gradual replacement by the rupiah, which risks weakening future generations’ understanding of this cultural symbol. To address this issue, the research employed a literature study method by reviewing relevant books, academic journals, and visual documents. The objective of the study is to analyze the functional changes, symbolic meanings, and Chinese cultural visual elements preserved in kepeng coins. The findings reveal that kepeng coins have served multiple purposes, ranging from currency and markers of social status to offerings in rituals such as melasti, ngaben, and piodalan, as well as materials for crafts with both aesthetic and economic value. Visual elements such as the square hole and Chinese inscriptions symbolize cosmological concepts of earth and heaven, which were reinterpreted within Balinese Hindu traditions. In conclusion, this study emphasizes that kepeng coins represent Sino-Balinese acculturation, reflecting cultural resilience while contributing to the preservation of Balinese identity in the face of modernization.

Abstract

Srikaya cake is one of Palembang's culinary heritage with a sweet taste, followed with a soft texture made of coconut milk, eggs, sugar, and pandan. Despite having a historical value along with a strong culture, Srikaya cake's popularity among the younger generation has actually declined due to a shift in consumption patterns that's heading towards modern culinary trends, such as dessert boxes, bubble tea, and international pastries. In addition to that, the limitations of innovating the marketing, branding, and visual identity has made Srikaya cake less competitive compared to other modern culinary products that are more aggressively promoted on digital platforms. This research solves this problem by designing a visual promotional media that targets the younger generation with the main media in the form of Product Display Panel (PDP), Mini PDP, and packaging variants developed in three tiers consisting of standard, premium, and super premium. The design method applied in this research is Design Thinking, which involves the stages of emphaty towards users, focused problem definition, creative ideas, prototyping, and a testing to receive feedbacks from the target audience. The objectives of the design are to enhance the visual appeal and the perceived value of Srikaya cake, building the brand identity that is relevant to the young generation, and also to expand the promotional reach through both offline and online channels. The expected results are to increase the buying interest, better aesthetic acceptance, and to contribute in preserving the Palembang's traditional culinary heritage through marketing solutions that are adaptive towards the modern market dynamics

Abstract

Film posters serve as a medium of visual communication that functions not only as a promotional tool but also as a cultural text representing social realities and aesthetic values. The urgency of this research is the film poster of Ganjil Genap by Bene Dion Rajagukguk, which features visual elements. This phenomenon shows that film posters can be an important object of study to understand how visual elements construct meaning and communication messages. This study aims to analyze the visual elements in the Ganjil Genap film poster using Peirce’s semiotic approach. The research employs a qualitative method and is conducted through four stages of design review: description, formal analysis, interpretation, and evaluation. In the descriptive stage, all visual elements of the poster are described in detail, including illustration, color, typography, and layout. The formal analysis stage examines how these elements are technically arranged to create visual harmony that attracts audience attention. The interpretation stage applies Peirce’s triadic concept of signs icon, index, and symbol to identify explicit and implicit meanings contained within each visual element. The final evaluation stage synthesizes the overall meanings derived from interpretation and assesses the effectiveness of the poster in conveying its message. The findings indicate that the Ganjil Genap film poster functions not merely as a promotional medium but also as a form of social and emotional communication. Through its carefully designed visual symbols and communicative strategies, the poster becomes a meaningful medium of visual communication capable of engaging audiences on a deeper emotional and cultural level.

Abstract

Industri musik global mengalami transformasi besar akibat digitalisasi, dengan platform streaming dan media sosial menjadi kanal utama distribusi musik. Perubahan ini menghadirkan peluang sekaligus tantangan, terutama bagi musisi yang berupaya mempertahankan identitas budaya lokal. Musik Melayu Sriwijaya, bagian dari warisan Sumatera Selatan, memiliki nilai historis tinggi, namun semakin terpinggirkan di kalangan generasi muda akibat dominasi genre populer dan arus globalisasi. Kondisi ini menegaskan perlunya strategi promosi yang mampu menyeimbangkan pelestarian budaya dengan relevansi di era digital. Band Candei, asal Sumatera Selatan, mengadaptasi musik Melayu Sriwijaya ke format modern melalui penggunaan bahasa Basemah dan aransemen kontemporer. Namun, kendala tetap muncul pada aspek branding dan komunikasi visual untuk memperluas jangkauan audiens. Penelitian ini bertujuan merancang strategi komunikasi visual untuk promosi album terbaru Candei dengan memadukan estetika Art Nouveau dan elemen visual budaya Melayu Sriwijaya. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif melalui wawancara, observasi, serta analisis literatur terkait branding, komunikasi visual, dan musik tradisional. Proses perancangan dilakukan sejak pra-produksi hingga karya final, menghasilkan media promosi berupa logo, poster, katalog merchandise, motion graphic, serta konten digital di Instagram dan YouTube. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa integrasi gaya Art Nouveau dengan simbol budaya lokal memperkuat identitas visual Candei, meningkatkan diferensiasi di pasar musik, dan membangun keterikatan dengan audiens. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada strategi komunikasi visual berbasis budaya di industri musik digital, serta menawarkan model branding yang relevan bagi musisi independen Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the visual characteristics of vernacular stilt-house architecture in Wana Village, East Lampung, through three sketching techniques: drawing pen, drawing pen with watercolor, and drawing pen with colored pencils. This traditional house was chosen because it holds significant architectural and cultural value as a representation of the local identity of the Lampung community, reflecting adaptation to the tropical environment, the use of natural materials, and traditional construction systems passed down through generations. Amid the ongoing modernization that threatens to alter and diminish local architectural traditions, this study is crucial as an effort to document and preserve visual knowledge that represents the interrelation between architecture, culture, and environment. The purpose of this research is to explore how different visual media influence architectural representation in terms of detail, texture, depth, and visual nuance. The study employs a qualitative exploratory, experimental approach within the framework of practice-based research. Data were obtained from photographic documentation of vernacular stilt houses, which served as visual references during the reflective sketching process. The results show that each medium produces distinct aesthetic and cultural interpretations: drawing pen emphasizes structural clarity; the combination of drawing pen and watercolor presents harmony between architecture and the environment; while drawing pen with colored pencils conveys more personal and emotional expression. Through artistic reflection and iterative evaluation, this creative practice provides new insights into the relationship between visual action and cultural meaning. The study concludes that reflective sketching can serve as a visual research method that integrates artistic knowledge, aesthetic experience, and the identity of vernacular architecture.

Abstract

Traditional markets are places for socializing, trading, and cultural exchange. They form the foundation of urban communities. The link between the market and local communities creates complexity and dynamics. However, a confusing signage system and layout problems lead to an unorganized market that is difficult for visitors to navigate. These issues show a need for a visual communication system that helps market visitors while showcasing the community's cultural values and identity. This study aims to understand and address the needs of market users by designing functional pictograms using the Design Thinking method. This process involves five phases: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test, including market managers, visitors, and traders. Testing with 50 visitors revealed that the new pictograms improved comprehension from an average of 58% to 88%. The time needed to interpret the symbols dropped from 7.2 seconds to 3.1 seconds. Qualitatively, this pictogram design blends local Surakarta cultural values, such as the parang motif and the sogan color, with modern geometric shapes like circles and rounded rectangles. This combination creates a friendly and easily recognizable look. The study concludes that applying Design Thinking is effective for creating a functional visual navigation system and for improving the visual identity of traditional markets. These markets can serve as inclusive public spaces that keep up with urban growth. The novelty of this research lies in merging a human-centered design approach with local cultural aesthetics. This can serve as a model for using visual communication design to revitalize traditional markets in Indonesia.
