Abstract

Panji Mas shop is a business selling decorative and automotive paints in Singaraja, Bali. Most of its customers are men between the ages of 41 and 65 (low-middle-high income). However, due to the current re-generation of business owners, Panji Mas shop will also concentrate on expanding its target market to 18 to 40 years old. The main problem for the shop is that Singaraja people are still unfamiliar with it and its products (lack of brand awareness). The main cause is because of not using specific marketing strategies. Therefore, the writer chooses a company profile video shared on Facebook and Instagram as an ad based on Esp and Bie Production (2022). The company profile video will also highlight the shop's USPs, which are the wide range of automotive and decorative paints, mixing colors, and great services. As a result, it can help the shop increase its brand awareness.

Abstract

My screenplay The Listener is the story of Mike, a guy in his late 20s who loves money and thinks that money can buy happiness. My work’s main idea revolves around loves of money and how it can lead into a bad decision. I used the theory Base of Materialism Theory from Belk and Measurement of Materialism and Money Attitude from Rimple, Srikant, Naseem, and Kumar to construct the personalities of the main character. The purpose of this creative thesis is to increase the awareness that money cannot buy happiness. I used crime as the genre and Heist Flicks as the subgenre because I see a lot of similarities and genre convention with my screenplay’s subject matter of loves of money and money cannot buy someone’s happiness. The story mostly tells about how Mike faces the hardship in making decisions due to his loves of money. Later, he focuses on his prestige by having lots of money. At the end, he realizes that friendship is more important than money. Keywords: The Listener, Love of Money, Prestige, Materialism, Heist Flicks

Abstract

Established in December 2018 by Mr. Steven, the CEO of Boga Group Jatim, Onokabe is an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant by Boga Group Jatim. Onokabe has three competitors, which are Cocari, BBQ Frenzy, and Hanamasa. The competitors have similar concepts, prices, and products as Onokabe. However, due to ineffective marketing, Onokabe lacks customers and brand awareness. Whereas, Onokabe has strong USPs among the competitors, which is high-quality meat and a lot of buffet variation. Therefore, through a promotional video that highlights its USP, Onokabe can improve its brand awareness and attract potential customers. Besides that, a promotional video can be spread widely in this digital era to reach more people. Hopefully, highlighting and spreading the strength of Onokabe through a promotional video can solve the problem of Onokabe and increase its sales. Keywords: marketing, promotional tool, promotional video, Onokabe, restaurant

Abstract

Although everyone must have gone through a stage of grief in their life, often times people are not aware of how to properly deal with it and are having difficulties to move on. There is a misconception in the society that mourning is a negative emotion that one should get over with as soon as possible. Using the Tasks of Grief theory, however, I discovered that this misconception of the grieving process tends to lead someone into denial, as they are not urged to accept the emotions carried out by the grief. To illustrate how denial can hinder someone from finding closure to their grief, I created a fifteen-minute screenplay which tells the story of a man who seems to have moved on from his breakup with an ex-lover while, in fact, he is living in a denial by his attempt to mask his own emotions. After a series of event, the protagonist gradually comes to accept the true nature of his loss and finally moves on with his life. I hope that this creative work will influence the audience and society to remove the misconception of suppressing emotions and forgetting the deceased being a way out of their grief.
