PENERAPAN PRINSIP SINEMATIK DALAM PROSES PEMBUATAN STORYBOARD FILM ANIMASI PENDEK 2D “ISWARAMU”

ABSTRACT

Storyboarding is one of the most important stages in the pre-production process of animated films, serving as a visual guide for production while also functioning as a medium for conveying narrative and emotional expression to the audience. This study aims to apply cinematic principles through the use of camera shots and angles in the storyboard of the 2D animated short film “Iswaramu” to enhance visual storytelling, strengthen character emotions, and support the delivery of messages regarding the importance of family communication. This research employed the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE development model, which consists of five stages: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Data were collected through literature review, observation of the animated short film One Small Step, interviews with several participants who had experiences related to family communication, and a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) conducted through a screening session of the animated film “Iswaramu”. The findings indicate that applying cinematic principles from the storyboard design stage plays a significant role in enhancing the quality of visual storytelling and serves as an effective guideline throughout the animation production process.

ABSTRAK
Storyboard merupakan salah satu tahapan penting dalam pra-produksi film animasi yang berfungsi sebagai acuan visual dalam proses produksi sekaligus sebagai media untuk menyampaikan narasi dan emosi kepada penonton. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk menerapkan prinsip sinematik melalui penggunaan shot dan angle kamera pada storyboard film animasi pendek 2D "Iswaramu" agar mampu memperkuat visual storytelling, membangun emosi karakter, dan mendukung penyampaian pesan mengenai pentingnya komunikasi dalam keluarga. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Research and Development (R&D) dengan model pengembangan ADDIE yang meliputi tahap analysis, design, development, implementation, dan evaluation. Pengumpulan data dalam proses penelitian dilakukan melalui studi literatur, observasi terhadap film animasi “One Small Step”, wawancara dengan beberapa narasumber yang memiliki pengalaman terkait komunikasi keluarga, serta Focus Group Discussion (FGD) melalui kegiatan screening film animasi “Iswaramu”. Dengan demikian, penerapan prinsip sinematik sejak tahap perancangan storyboard berperan penting dalam meningkatkan kualitas visual storytelling serta menjadi pedoman yang efektif pada proses produksi film animasi.
