Prolonged trauma then encourages the emergence of a trauma coping phase, which is the process of recovering an individual from a trauma. The number of traumatic experiences encourages drama films to raise the issue of trauma coping, one of which is the drama series Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. This film first aired on the Total Variety Network and received great attention about trauma coping, resulting in 347,000 search results on the Google search engine since 2022. This research tells the story of the protagonist Hong-Du Sik, who is trying to confront his trauma after being in a relationship with Yoon Hye-Jin. However, the trauma-coping process carried out by the main character becomes complex because trauma coping is closely related to self-concept, relationships and interpersonal perceptions, which will be influenced by perception, memory and thinking. The more negative the self-concept, relationships and interpersonal perceptions, the less easy the trauma-coping process will be. Through a qualitative approach and the semiotic method of Charles Sanders Pierce, the researcher</em></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><em>intends to look at the representation of trauma in the drama series. Through this research, it was found that the drama Hometowan Cha-Cha-Cha focuses on the traumatic experience of Hong Du-Sik, who has lost his family, forming a negative self-concept, which causes him to have difficulty establishing new relationships with others. After meeting Yoon Hye-Jin, Hong Du-Sik exhibits trauma coping strategies: confrontation, isolation, and compromise. The character's trauma coping strategies are visualised through clothing, verbal dialogue, actions and facial expressions. Not only that, this film also represents trauma coping that occurs in South Korea, which has experienced trauma, so this film really describes the actual situation..</em></p> <p><strong><em>keyword: </em></strong><em>representation; semiotic; film; trauma coping</em></p> Annisa Nadira Fristiani Aceng Abdullah Evi Rosfiantika ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 1 23 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.10598 KOMUNIKASI POLITIK AGENSI-STRUKTUR KOALISI MASYARAKAT SIPIL ANTI KEKERASAN SEKSUAL (KOMPAKS) DALAM GERAKAN PENGESAHAN UU TPKS https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11154 <p><em>The community has an important role in the legislative process for the Prevention of Sexual Violence Crime Act (UU-TPKS). Various elements of society who are members of the Civil Society Coalition Against Sexual Violence (KOMPAKS) movement are actively carrying out political communications that undermine the ratification of the TPKS Law. Actors in the KOMPAKS movement consist of various civil society organizations (CSOs), student organizations, and academics (individuals and groups). This research aims to analyze political communication that occurs in the KOMPAKS environment and create a dialectical relationship between actors and social structures.

However, this research has limitations because it only focuses on observing the monitoring process of the TPKS Law carried out by KOMPAKS as a form of civil society movement. The research results show that (1) political communication occurs through the connectedness (duality) of KOMPAK's agent structure, and (2) KOMPAKS is able to overcome internal and external challenges in the process of forming the TPKS law. KOMPAKS' internal political communication challenge is coordination between KOMPAKS members, and the external political communication challenge is discussion of the contents of the TPKS law which is considered LGBT-friendly.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>: Communication; Political; Woman; Movement; KOMPAKS</em></p> Dia Puspitasari ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 24 37 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11154 ETIKA DAN DAMPAK KOMODIFIKASI KOMUNIKASI DALAM INDUSTRI MEDIA MASSA https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11188 <p><strong>ABSTRACT </strong></p> <p><em>This research examines the ethics and impact of communication commodification in the mass media industry. The research method used is qualitative descriptive. The findings of the study indicate that practices in mass media communication are influenced by communication commodification, communication ethics, and relevant theories. Advertising and promotions are part of this commodification, where mass media sells ad space as commodities to companies or individuals for promotional purposes. This is related to the theory of communication commodification which reveals how communication is increasingly mediated by economic values and becomes a trading object in the media industry. Paid content is also popular in the digital era, where users pay to access specific content. Digital Ethics and Privacy emphasize the importance of maintaining privacy and ethics in digital practices, including payment and access to digital content. Sponsorship and endorsement practices are also part of this commodification, where media sells rights to support events or products to companies or individuals. Ethics in mass media communication practices can be seen from the perspective of Communication Ethics which includes principles such as truth, justice, responsibility, and integrity. The Hegemony and Media Control Theory describe how power and control in the mass media industry can influence the content produced, distributed, and consumed by the public. The commodification theory highlights the transformation of mass media into commercial products that require principles such as truth, impartiality, privacy, social justice, humanity, wisdom, integrity, and independence. The PEC theory emphasizes the relationship between economic and political structures and the production, distribution, and consumption of media, thus requiring principles such as independence from external pressure, truth in information, and social justice. Digital ethics and privacy are crucial in protecting user information and building public trust. Integrating these theories provides a more holistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities faced by the mass media industry in the modern era.</em></p> <p><em>Keywords: Communication Ethics; Mass Media Commodification; Media Economic Impact; Media Power</em></p> <p><em>&nbsp;</em></p> Muhammad Darmawan Setiadi ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 38 61 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11188 ANALISIS SEMIOTIKA FOTO HEADLINE HARIAN DI’S WAY JULI 2020 https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11057 <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Daily DI's Way, a print media that was first published on July 4, 2020, was initiated by a former senior Jawa Pos official, Dahlan Iskan.

This theory is related to the current globalization of political and economic media and explains the transition from old media to new media. Mosco's theory shows how the structure of the media industry is shaped by economic (such as content monetization and corporate profits) and political (such as government regulation and control) interests. On Wattpad, this shows how companies monetize user content and how government laws can impact access and freedom of expression online. The method used in this study is a case study and a qualitative approach based on critical traditions and paradigms. This study uses secondary data originating from documentation, and primary data comes from observation and interviews. The theory used in this study is Vincent Mosko's Political Economy of Communication Theory. This study shows that overall, the structuration of Wattpad in Indonesia, through the lens of Vincent Mosco's theory, shows that this new media platform not only provides space for creativity and expression but also shapes the structure of the media industry, which changes the dynamics of power, resource distribution, and interaction. social.&nbsp; Thus, it illustrates how new media contributes to significant changes in the communications and publishing landscape in Indonesia more broadly. By using Vincent Mosko's theory to build the structure of Wattpad in Indonesia, several important implications can be seen. One is that Wattpad allows for more diverse content and includes stories that highlight local culture and experiences that may be underrepresented in first-stream media. An example of a Wattpad story that raises a cultural theme is "The Kite Runner" by writer Khaled Hosseini. Even though this story is not an original Wattpad work, it is popular on this platform, and it highlights Afghan culture with its complex historical background.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong><em>Economy Politics Communication, Structure, Wattpad</em></p> Sherina Syarofa ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 103 120 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11110 KREATIVITAS DAN INOVASI DALAM REDAKSI DIGITAL : KOMODIFIKASI BERITA MENJADI VIDEO PENDEK DI TIKTOK https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11152 <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><em>This research highlights how creativity and innovation are crucial in today's digital era, where the traditional way of disseminating news has evolved to become more dynamic and interactive. The purpose of this study is to identify the commodification of digital news editors into short videos on TikTok The research method used is a literature study, which allows researchers to explore in depth the literature related to the use of TikTok as a new medium in the news industry. This study delves into the phenomenon of news commodification, specifically in their shift to the short video format on the TikTok platform. The results of this study stated that these changes not only affect the way news is consumed, but also force professionals in the media industry to adapt their skills by mastering video editing techniques, understanding platform algorithms, and developing creative perspectives to present relevant stories. Studies on content commodification highlight the transformation of news into short videos on TikTok, changing the way traditional media delivers information and influencing consumer interactions with news content. With a focus on appealing to audiences who prefer quick and visual consumption, news media are faced with the challenge of maintaining substance and accuracy in short content. The commodification of audiences through platforms like TikTok reflects the media's strategy of reaching younger generations with compelling video editing and writing skills, as well as a deep understanding of social media dynamics. The shifting role of journalists in the digital age demands adaptation to new technologies and the ability to create relevant content, reinforcing the need for new skills and deep understanding in an increasingly competitive media industry. </em></p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>: Commodification, News, Tiktok, Industrial Transformation</em></p> Amelia Nurazizah ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 121 138 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11152 EFEKTIFITAS IKLAN MEDIA BALIHO PT KENCANA MAJU BERSAMA TERHADAP BRAND AWARENESS CABANG SURABAYA https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11291 <p><em>PT Kencana Maju Bersama chose billboard advertising media to market its products.

The t value is 7.887 with a significance level of 0.001 ≤ 0.1. This means that advertising on billboard media marketed by PT Kencana Maju Bersama can be said to be effective. It is hoped that the results of this research can be used as additional knowledge or guidance to support future research, especially those studying communication science, interested in knowing the impact of using billboard advertising or advertising media using the CRI, Media Exposure, and Brand Awareness methods or other methods as a means of promotion by companies that want to increase consumer brand awareness.</em></p> <p><strong><em>&nbsp;</em></strong></p> <p><em>Keywords</em><em>: Effectiveness, Advertising, Billboard media, Brand awareness</em></p> esterer fisa ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 139 153 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11291 BUDAYA HEDONISME DI KALANGAN LGBT (ANALISIS WACANA KRITIS N.

One of the phenomena that highlights this dynamic was based on a podcast broadcast on a YouTube channel owned by an artist named Deddy Corbuzier who guest star Lucinta Luna, a transgender celebrity who has caused a lot of controversy in Indonesia. This research examines how the implementation and development of the culture of hedonism is discussed, especially by one of the marginalized groups in Indonesia, such as the LGBT group. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach. It uses Norman Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis Theory, which examines the structure of language or text, discursive practices, and the socio-cultural context behind a discourse that is echoed. The results of this research show that Lucinta Luna as a subject who represents the LGBT group in her presentation uses language that can be said to be blunt, very open, invites a variety of opinions, and makes the watching audience have a different perspective when describing the needs and lifestyle of hedonism as well as the power he obtained and exercised from the controversial wealth resulting from being a transgender person, especially in Indonesia. This is a reflection of other LGBT people, who are starting to dare to promote the culture of hedonism as a necessity to achieve fame and success for LGBT groups. These findings provide a new understanding of the discourse practices of marginalized LGBT groups in Indonesia and critical discourse studies in a digital context.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>: Hedonistic Culture, LGBT, Critical Discourse Analysis, Group</em></p> Josephine Virgiawan Dinda Nur Amalia Khusnul Fathoni ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-07-31 2024-07-31 3 02 154 171 10.30996/sintesa.v3i02.11289 SIMBOLIK PESAN IKLAN KAMPANYE PILPRES 2024 VERSI “OKE GAS PRABOWO GIBRAN PALING PAS" https://jurnal.untag-sby.ac.id/index.php/sintesa/article/view/11254 <p><em>This research highlights how creativity and innovation play an important role in the transformation of the media industry.
