Perancangan Animasi Serial Edukasi Bencana Untuk Anak Kelas 1-3 SD Studi Kasus Bencana Tsunami

Indonesia sebagai negara yang terletak di wilayah cincin api berpotensi bencana,terutama bencana tsunami. Empat juta jiwa masyarakat Indonesia berada di wilayah terpapar tsunami. Berbagai upaya mitigasi yang dilakukan pemerintah memerlukan banyak biaya dan waktu, sementara tsunami bisa datang kapanpun. Salah satu strategi pengurangan resiko bencana yang bisa dilakukan saat ini adalah dengan melakukan pendidikan dan pelatihan mengenai kesiap-siagaan bencana, terutama kepada anak-anak sebagai kelompok paling rentan saat terjadi bencana. Edukasi kebencanaan bagi anak usia kelas 1-3 SD memerlukan penyampaian materi yang sesuai dengan kemampuan kognitif dan disampaikan secara menarik agar dapat dipahami anak dengan baik. Perancangan ini menggunakan pendekatan metode riset kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data secara pengamatan langsung dan observasi terhadap media edukasi kebencanaan terdahulu, wawancara dan studi pustaka. Metode kuantitatif digunakan untuk mengetahui preferensi visual anak dalam penyampaian informasi baik visual, bahasa, dan pilihan gaya gambar. Penulis mencari rumusan tepat dalam merancang animasi sebagai media edukasi bagi anak-anak kelas 1-3 SD dengan pembahasan konten mulai dari tindakan kesiapsiagaan pra bencana, prinsip penyelamatan diri saat terjadi bencana, hingga tindakan pasca bencana sesuai dengan kemampuan kognitif mereka. Hasil konsep perancangan ini adalah animasi sebagai media edukasi mengenai kebencanaan yang dikemas dengan cara yang menyenangkan bagi anak. Dengan tema petualangan anak akan belajar mengenai bencana sekaligus aktif secara motorik saat menirukan simulasi penyelamatan diri dari bencana tsunami. Eksekusi perancangan menggunakan kombinasi ilustrasi vektor untuk karakter utama dan digital painting untuk menggambarkan lokal konten yang ada sebagai setting utama dalam animasi ini. Dengan melakukan studi kasus bahwa setiap daerah di Indonesia memiliki potensi bencana dan sumber daya alam yang berbeda. ================================================================================================================== Indonesia as a country located in the area of The ring of fire is potentially catastrophic, especially tsunami. Four million people located in tsunami hazzard zone and exposed to tsunami. Various mitigation measures taken by the government is not only expensive but also time consuming, while the tsunami could come anytime soon. One of the disaster risk reduction strategies that can be done now is giving education and training of disaster preparedness, especcially to children as the most vunerable groups in time of disaster. Disaster education for first to thrird elementary grade requires the delivery of material in accordance with cognitive ability and interesting in order to be well understand able by children . Qualitative research method of data collecting techniques by direct observation and earlier study interviews, and literature is used as approach. Quantitative methods are used to determine the child's visual preferences, delivery of visual information, language, and ilustration style options. Author search for the right formula in designing animation as a medium of education for children grade 1-3 elementary school with a discussion of content ranging from action pre-disaster preparedness, the principle of self-preservation in time of disaster, post-disaster to act in accordance with their cognitive abilities. The result of this design concept is the animation as a medium of education about the disaster that is packaged in a way that is fun for children. With adventurous child will learn about disasters as well as active motor current simulations mimicked escape from the tsunami disaster Indonesia as a country located in the area of The ring of fire is potentially catastrophic, especially tsunami.

By conducting case studies that every region in Indonesia has the potential for disaster and the different natural resources
