Abstract

This study aims to implement the squash & stretch principle through rigging methods to create various facial expressions on the animated character Murdasa. Using a qualitative experimental approach, this research visually observes how the deformation of facial elements, such as eyes, mouth, and eyebrows, generates dynamic and emotional expressions. Squash & stretch techniques were applied to several expressions, including happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, and disappointment. Visual observation revealed that squash conveys pressure and emotional intensity, while stretch emphasizes openness and expansion of expression. This approach provides deep insights into the process of creating facial expressions in animation and produces an expression library sheet that facilitates animators in efficiently creating a wide range of expressions. The findings demonstrate that the squash & stretch principle significantly contributes to the development of lively and emotionally engaging animated characters.

Abstract

The concept of visual literacy reading activities based on technology represents an implementation of the smart education paradigm, which is currently gaining recognition as a potentially transformative approach for engaging the digital native generation. The strategy of combining the power of visual-based storyteling media with virtual reality technology represents an innovation that aims to present a more engaging and enjoyable reading experience for early childhood. The objective of this study is to examine the impact of the Augmented Reality Children's Storybook (ARCS) Timun Mas media on the cognitive and visual responses of early childhood. The study employed a qualitative case study methodology with a purposive sample of children aged 4-6 years at Darrunajwa Kindergarten, Jombang, East Java. The data collection techniques selected were observation, interviews, literature studies, and documentation. The findings of the study indicate that the Timun Mas Storybook media based on Augmented Reality can facilitate the formation of five indicators of children's cognitive-visual abilities, namely visual sensory, visual attention, visual memory, visual spatial relations, and visual sequence memory. This visual response will subsequently contribute to an enhanced visual perception of children towards the forms of visual elements, storylines, and moral messages contained in the ARCS Timun Mas media.

Abstract

In the learning activities carried out at TK Dharmawangsa, students feel bored quickly during the learning process, especially when learning to recognize numbers. This is because the learning media used before were less attractive, because they only used books and makeshift tools. The design of interactive multimedia about number recognition is able to be a solution to this problem, because interactive multimedia is able to display text, graphics, audio, and animation to attract students' interest in the learning process. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop interactive learning multimedia that has a number recognition feature and contains games to arrange numbers and guess the number of objects to help students and teachers of TK Dharmawangsa in the teaching and learning process. For data collection techniques used in this study, namely observation, interviews, questionnaires, literature, and documentation. And for the method of making media starting from the pre-production process, production, to post-production. Based on the test results, the material experts get a very good predicate about this interactive media as an auxiliary media in the teaching and learning process, while the media experts get a good predicate about the appropriateness of this interactive media to be published. Based on the results of the questionnaire that was given to 21 students of TK Dharmawangsa, this interactive multimedia about number recognition received very good 100% responses as an interesting and fun learning medium.

Abstract

This study examines the experiences and perceptions of Denpasar residents regarding alcohol advertisements in public spaces. In a society that upholds religious and cultural values, the presence of such advertisements sparks controversy due to concerns about their impact on social norms and morality. Using Maurice Merleau-Ponty's theory of the phenomenology of perception, this research aims to analyze how alcohol advertisements influence public perception based on the interaction between the body, consciousness, and social environment. The method employed is a phenomenological approach with in-depth interviews and observations of advertisements in public spaces. The findings reveal that perceptions vary significantly depending on age, gender, occupation, and religious background. The majority of respondents from Muslim and Hindu religious groups reject the presence of these advertisements, considering them to be in conflict with religious values and expressing concern about their potential influence on younger generations. On the other hand, younger respondents tend to be more permissive, as long as the advertisements do not disrupt social order. This study has not yet explored in depth how differences in the context of public spaces, such as tourist areas and local environments, influence public perceptions of alcohol advertisements.

Abstract

Digital media and emerging technological tools are expanding the reach of various practices, including art, which increasingly takes abstract, visual, or musical forms. This transformation has led to a growing detachment from traditional art forms, contributing to their diminishing appeal. Furthermore, regional cultural institutions, such as art galleries, often struggle to effectively promote traditional arts, exacerbating the challenges of preserving and revitalizing these cultural expressions in the face of rapid societal change. This research explores the innovative intersection of digital comics and traditional arts as a means of cultural preservation and promotion. This research investigates how the storytelling power of comics, with its engaging visuals and narrative structure, can be harnessed to communicate the richness of traditional art forms to a broader, more diverse audience. By integrating elements of traditional culture into digital comic formats, the study seeks to bridge generational and cultural gaps, ensuring that the cultural significance of traditional arts is not only preserved but also made relevant in today’s digital-centric world. The research emphasizes how this hybrid medium can serve as an accessible platform for education, engagement, and cultural exchange, providing an interactive way to showcase traditional art techniques, history, and symbolism. Furthermore, the study examines the potential of digital comics to expand the reach and visibility of traditional art, particularly among younger generations who may be less engaged with conventional art forms. Through an analysis of case studies and the development of prototype digital comic projects, the research highlights the effectiveness of combining modern digital tools with the timeless appeal of visual storytelling. The study suggests that by leveraging the popularity of comics and graphic novels, traditional art can be introduced in a fresh, dynamic way, fostering greater appreciation and understanding. This research ultimately proposes a new model for preserving cultural heritage, blending creativity, technology, and tradition to create compelling narratives that resonate with a contemporary audience.
