PERAN PROGRAM DIRECTOR DALAM ALUR PENCERITAAN PADA DOKUMENTER “WARNA-WARNI INKLUSI”

Warna-Warni Inklusi is an expository documentary program that highlights art
communities formed by persons with disabilities who are actively involved in the
creative industry. The documentary is structured into three narrative segments: the
introduction of the community, the challenges they face, and their hopes for the
future. The story idea was developed based on research, visual references, and a
creative process that emphasizes an inclusive and educational narrative approach.
The visual tone was inspired by the documentary Makayla’s Voice, while the
narrative style follows The Mind: Explained, which presents content in a light,
structured, and accessible manner. During the production process, the writer, as
the Program Director, conducted briefings with sources, produced interview
transcripts, monitored daily callsheets, and directed the editor to maintain
narrative continuity. Script adjustments were made based on actual production
results to ensure alignment with the original vision. This program serves not only
as an educational medium to promote inclusive workspaces for people with
disabilities but also contributes to the development of visual storytelling practices
in vocational education, particularly at Politeknik Negeri Media Kreatif.

komunitas seni penyandang disabilitas yang aktif dalam industri kreatif.
Dokumenter ini dibangun dengan struktur tiga segmen yang terdiri dari pengenalan
komunitas, tantangan yang dihadapi, hingga harapan masa depan. Ide cerita disusun
berdasarkan hasil riset, referensi visual, serta proses kreatif yang
mempertimbangkan pendekatan naratif edukatif dan inklusif. Gaya visual dan tone
warna terinspirasi dari dokumenter Makayla’s Voice, sedangkan gaya naratif
diadaptasi dari The Mind: Explained dengan pendekatan populer dan ringan.
Selama proses produksi, penulis sebagai Program Director melakukan briefing
kepada narasumber, menyusun transkrip wawancara, memonitor callsheet harian,
serta memberikan arahan kepada editor untuk menjaga kesinambungan cerita.
Proses penyesuaian naskah dilakukan berdasarkan hasil produksi lapangan agar
tetap sesuai dengan visi awal. Program ini tidak hanya menjadi media edukasi
mengenai ruang inklusif bagi penyandang disabilitas, tetapi juga menjadi kontribusi
dalam penguatan praktik storytelling visual di lingkungan pendidikan vokasi,
