Tahun 2019 meletakkan Malaysia dalam kegemilangan filem bergenre adiwira. Dua penerbit besar, iaitu Animonsta Studio menghasilkan BoBoiboy Movie 2 dan WAU Animation Studio menghasilkan Ejen Ali The Movie, masing-masing menghasilkan keunikan watak adiwira dan kuasa mereka tersendiri. Namun begitu, industri filem animasi daripada genre adiwira masih berada di tahap yang tidak mampu berdaya saing. Hal ini dapat dilihat daripada 17 buah filem animasi yang dihasilkan daripada tahun 1998 tahun sehingga tahun 2019, hanya empat sahaja filem adiwira berjaya mendapat perhatian penonton. Animasi merupakan medium emosi, namun pemfokusan ke arah visual dalam reka bentuk watak dan naratif penceritaan sahaja tidak memadai. Sebaliknya, sebuah penceritaan mengajak audiens untuk masuk ke dalam posisi adiwira dan melihat dunia mereka melalui visual penonton. Oleh itu, objektif utama penulisan ini bertujuan menganalisis fasa perubahan arka watak adiwira Boboiboy dalam filem animasi BoBoiBoy Movie 2 (2019). Reka bentuk kajian ini merupakan kualitatif berbentuk analisis deskriptif dan menggunakan model The Character Arc yang diperkenalkan oleh Vogler (2007) menerusi bukunya bertajuk, The Writer's Journey. Kajian ini mendapati fasa perubahan watak adiwira Boboiboy dapat dilihat menerusi tindakan dan penampilannya. Perubahan ini dipengaruhi daripada dua dunia yang berbeza, iaitu dunia biasa dan dunia khas. Boboiboy menjalani 12 fasa konflik dalaman yang berbeza sehingga mencapai kejayaan dan memperoleh kuasa luar biasa untuk dikongsi sebagai rahmat bersama. Diharapkan dapatan analisis ini dapat dijadikan kayu ukur dalam aspek perkembangan watak dan perwatakan, sekali gus memberangsangkan lagi minat audiens.   The year 2019 marks the heyday of superhero films in Malaysia. BoBoiboy Movie 2 was produced by Animonsta studio, and Agent Ali The Movie was produced by WAU Animation studio, with each producing their own unique superhero characters and powers. Nonetheless, the animated film industry in the superhero genre remains uncompetitive. As shown by the 17 animated films made between 1998 and 2019, only four superhero films captured the public imagination. Although animation is an emotional medium, focusing solely on the visuals in character design and storytelling narrative is insufficient. Instead, a narrative invites the audience to put themselves in the place of superheroes and experience their world through the audience’s eyes. As a result, the main objective of this article is to examine the arc of the superhero character Boboiboy in the animated film BoBoiBoiBoy Movie 2 (2019). This study’s design is qualitative in the form of descriptive analysis, and it employs the model of The Character Arc introduced by Christopher Vogler (2007) in his book The Writer’s Journey. This research shows that the character of the superhero Boboiboy’s phase of change can be seen through his actions and appearance. These transitions are shaped by two distinct worlds, the ordinary and the extraordinary. Boboiboy goes through 12 stages of internal conflict before achieving success and gaining extraordinary powers to share as a collective privilege. It is hoped that the results of this study will be used as a benchmark for character growth and characterization while also stimulating the audience’s interest.

This chapter proposes that the ascription of star speech (as a dynamic sound form) to the computer-animated film’s puppet performers contributes to the effect and impact of their many screen performances. This chapter takes the star voice to be a unique instrument of performance that lies at the cornerstone of computer-animated film acting, and begins by implicating the potency of the star voice within wider industrial discourses. These include local dubbing practices, sound technology, and the multiplication of star sound across a range of consumer and multi-media products. The formal and structural importance of the star voice to computer-animated film performance is illustrated through the work of prominent film sound theorist Michel Chion and his work on synchresis, a neologism produced out of the combination of “synchronism” and “synthesis”. By extending Chion’s account, this chapter uses descriptors derived from synchresis to outline three prominent synchretic unions operating at the level of character design. A significant innovation here is the development of a taxonomy of the star voice as it is inscribed formally into computer-animated films—anthropomorphic, autobiographic and acousmatic synchresis—which give new precision to the analysis of star voices in animation.

And Function

2019 is a phenomenal year for the development of the Malaysian animated film industry as it has successfully produced two superheroes animated films in total. However, the animated film industry in Malaysia is still not competitive at the international level. This can be seen from the 17 animated films that have been produced from 1998 to 2019, only two superheroes animated films managed to get the attention of the audience. This is due to the lack of knowledge of the concept and function of the hero character in animated films. Therefore, the main objective of this paper aims to demonstrate how the Hero’s Journey narrative structure can be applied in BoBoiBoy Movie 2 (2019). This research method involves the use of video analysis tools namely Kinovea and Motion Picture Analysis Worksheet to explain on how the Hero’s Journey of this film conveys the storytelling. The results of this study found that each semicircle Hero’s narrative structure has an important meaning across from one half-circle to the other half-circle. As a result, it explains the concept of peace and chaos as well as stasis and changes in the narrative structure of superhero animated films. This paper will provide information to researchers on the importance and use of the Hero’s Journey approach to analyze superhero animated films.

Animation industry involves huge funds in production process and its success will give  great income. Predicting the box-office of animated film has become an interesting topic to be discussed, because past studies are shown to be contradictory. Sharda and Delen conducted a similar study that used seven parameters, i.e. MPAA rating, competition, star value, genre, special effects, sequel and number of screens; and generated pinpoint accuracy (i.e. Bingo) with 36.9% and within one category (1-Away) with 75.2%. The authors proposed new and simple parameters that can be used to predict the success of animated films, i.e. the actors/actress, animation studio, genre, MPAA rating and the sequel of the film. These five parameters are relatively simple because it can be easily collected. In this study, the use of neural networks in predicting the financial performance of 120 animated films from 1995 until 2013 was explored. There are three categories of financial performance that become the class label of this study, they are: low, medium and high. Our prediction result in bingo is 58% and 1-away is 89,7%. By using the simple parameters, this study can reach a better accuracy. It is expected that this prediction can help animation film industry to predict the expected revenue range before its theatrical release.

Aesthetic Values

Animation defined as a process which giving inanimate object or images appear to be moved. Today, the technology has advanced to another level which animators using computer-generated imagery (CGI) to animate. The aim of this research is to introduce to people about the aesthetics value in character design. In animated film, it must be a character to roll as something that can successfully give the message, feeling, and mood in a situation. So, the character must have the aesthetic value through strong physical appearance based on his or her colour patterns, body language, and shapes to express them. For example, in Malaysia we have many iconic characters in animated series that succeed in portraying the aesthetics value based on what they wanted to deliver like Upin Ipin, Boboi Boi, Keluang Man and Anak-anak sidek. However, not all viewers see the difference. Thus, by making this research, it will guide them to be more intuitive and can differentiate among characters in any movies.

The Computer-Animated Film: Industry, Style and Genre is the first academic work to examine the genre identity of the computer-animated film, a global phenomenon of popular cinema that first emerged in the mid-1990s at the intersection of feature-length animated cinema and Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI). Widely credited for the revival of feature-length animated filmmaking within contemporary Hollywood, computer-animated films are today produced within a variety of national contexts and traditions. Covering thirty years of computer-animated film history, and analysing over 200 different examples, The Computer-Animated Film: Industry, Style and Genre argues that this international body of work constitutes a unique genre of mainstream cinema. It applies, for the very first time, genre theory to the landscape of contemporary digital animation, and identifies how computer-animated films can be distinguished in generic terms. This book therefore asks fundamental questions about the evolution of film genre theory within both animation and new media contexts. Informed by wider technological discourses and the status of animation as an industrial art form, The Computer-Animated Film: Industry, Style and Genre not only theorises computer-animated films through their formal properties, but connects elements of film style to animation practice and the computer-animated film’s unique production contexts.

Election Process

From 1789 to 1913, U.S. senators were not directly elected by the people—instead the Constitution mandated that they be chosen by state legislators. This radically changed in 1913, when the Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified, giving the public a direct vote. This book investigates the electoral connections among constituents, state legislators, political parties, and U.S. senators during the age of indirect elections. The book finds that even though parties controlled the partisan affiliation of the winning candidate for Senate, they had much less control over the universe of candidates who competed for votes in Senate elections and the parties did not always succeed in resolving internal conflict among their rank and file. Party politics, money, and personal ambition dominated the election process, in a system originally designed to insulate the Senate from public pressure. The book uses an original data set of all the roll call votes cast by state legislators for U.S. senators from 1871 to 1913 and all state legislators who served during this time. Newspaper and biographical accounts uncover vivid stories of the political maneuvering, corruption, and partisanship—played out by elite political actors, from elected officials, to party machine bosses, to wealthy business owners—that dominated the indirect Senate elections process. The book raises important questions about the effectiveness of Constitutional reforms, such as the Seventeenth Amendment, that promised to produce a more responsive and accountable government.

Abstract: The phenomenon of the people who forcibly took covid's corpse 19 from the hospital to be taken care of by Fardhu Kifayah by his family and the community, became a conclusion that there was community doubt about the management of Tajhiz Mayat conducted by the hospital. Coupled with the circulation of the video of the Ruku movement 'in the corpse prayer conducted by unscrupulous parties at the Hospital, became added doubts from the public against the hospital. To solve this problem, this research uses a Descriptive Analysis approach, namely by formulating a question, namely How to arrange Covid 19's body in Banda Aceh and this question will be answered with several theories and data sets from the field. So it was concluded in a conclusion that answered the formulation of the problems mentioned. Theoretically the spread of covid 19 is very fast, the size of the virus is only 0.1 micrometer and is in body fluids, especially nasopharyngeal fluid and oropharyngeal fluids of infected people, fluids in the body of covid 19 bodies can get out through every gap of the body such as mouth, nose, eye and rectum, because it requires special techniques in its management. Fardhu kifayah to covid 19 bodies should be carried out by trained Ustad and trained health workers, so that the spread stopped. The results of this study concluded that the management of the Moslem bodies died at Zainal Abidin Hospital in Banda Aceh was in accordance with the Fatwa of the Aceh Ulama Council (MPU) and the bodies were handled by trained Ustad and health workers.
