Abstract

The existence of animation is often compared with wayang, which has existed in Indonesia for a long time. Wayang is considered a representation of animation in its traditional form in Indonesia. At the same time, animation is regarded as a form of wayang in the modern version. However, no research has examined the similarities and differences between wayang and animation. It can be seen by comparing the two media's mise-en-scene elements. This research used a comparative study method focusing on looking deeply at the differences and similarities between wayang kulit in Indonesia and animation. The data analysis process is carried out by analyzing the mise en-scene form of animation & wayang kulit on five primary elements: setting & props, costume, hair & makeup, facial expressions & body language, lighting & colour, and positioning of characters/objects within the frame. In the identification of mise en-scene in wayang kulit and animation, it is found that both media are built by critical components that are used to form a narrative that will be told to the audience. The use of settings, character visualization, facial expressions & body language, light & colour, as well as the positioning of characters on stage, are arranged in such a way as to suit the needs of the dalang or director. The forms of mise-en-scene from wayang and animation differ in using technology in the production process. The results of this research can be used to see how the relationship between the history of traditional motion-based arts, such as wayang, influences the development of modern animation in Indonesia.
