Abstract

The development of news about Covid-19 that hit almost the entire world, was conveyed massively by the mass media. The work process of journalists in reporting makes them vulnerable to infection. Photojournalists have to rack their brains to keep sending news. During the pandemic, female photojournalists experienced more obstacles and discrimination than before the pandemic. A strong patriarchal system gives rise to gender discrimination in the male-dominated photojournalist profession. This research is qualitative research with a critical paradigm. Researchers want to see the extent of discrimination against three female photojournalists in Indonesia during the pandemic. This research used qualitative methods, with semi-structured interviews, to explore the experiences of female photojournalists during the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings of this study are the existence of double burden gender discrimination, maternal discrimination, and layoff for those who have high salaries (discrimination based on pay) from the media where they work.

Abstract

The novel Coming Home (Pulang) by Toha Mochtar has had five cover designs that have appeared in a span of 41 years. Chronologically, the five novels were published in 1958, 1962, 1967, 1972, and 1999. The focus of this research departs from these five cover illustrations which on one side become narrative representations in the novel. However, on the other hand it can be said to represent socio-political discourses from the era when they were composed. The method used in this study is a qualitative method through examining illustrations. To examine the illustration, representation and discourse approaches (concepts) are used. From the results of the analysis it can be seen that these historical factors and determinants can be interpreted as the cause of the differences in each cover design, and when examined chronologically, the five covers show a cultural and historical process, namely the meeting between peasant life and political history. The findings in this study also show that each cover, apart from being a narrative representation, also has its own story which can be dismantled through various critical analyses. Novel Pulang karya Toha Mochtar memiliki lima desain sampul yang muncul dalam rentang waktu 41 tahun. Secara kronologis, kelima novel tersebut terbit pada tahun 1958, 1962, 1967, 1972, dan 1999. Fokus penelitian ini bertolak dari kelima ilustrasi sampul ini yang di satu sisi menjadi representasi naratif dalam novel. Akan tetapi, di sisi lain dapat dikatakan sebagai representasi wacana sosial-politik dari zaman ketika mereka digubah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif melalui pemeriksaan ilustrasi. Untuk memeriksa ilustrasi tersebut, digunakan pendekatan (konsep) representasi dan wacana. Dari hasil analisis terlihat bahwa faktor-faktor historis dan determinan tersebut dapat ditafsirkan sebagai penyebab adanya perbedaan di setiap desain sampul, dan jika diperiksa dalam perbandingan secara kronologis, kelima sampul tersebut menunjukkan sebuah proses kultural dan historis, yaitu pertemuan antara kehidupan petani dan sejarah politik. Temuan dalam penelitian ini juga menunjukkan bahwa setiap sampul, selain menjadi representasi naratif, juga memiliki cerita masing-masing yang dapat dibongkar lewat berbagai analisis kritis.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the work of the 2016 Indonesian Press Photo Award Photo of the Year entitled "Tinjau Titik Api," using the "Three Visual Layers" theory. Photo of the Year 2016 was chosen because it has the advantage of good visual value and high news value, especially for people in the news. The three visual layers analysis includes optical, cultural, and photographic meaning. The optical aspect is for the non-blind eyes, the cultural aspect includes known visual appearances and unknown visual appearances, and the photographic aspect has a functional appearance, personal appearance, and subjective appearance. The research method is qualitative analysis because its implementation is based on visual analysis to find meaning from photos depicting three figures who are symbols of the strength of the Indonesian state, namely, the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, TNI Commander General Gatot Nurmantyo, and Chief of the Indonesian National Police General Badarudin Haiti, who is inspecting the location of forest and land fires, in Geronggong Village, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, South Sumatra. Data analysis involves: Scrutinizing relevant and irrelevant information, reducing data, compiling codes against findings data, and verifying codes as a reference for discussion and conclusion. The research results show that the 2016 Photo of the Year contains meaning that shows the Indonesian government's commitment to dealing with forest and land fires in Sumatra. The photo has advantages in terms of visual value which is reflected in the composition, depth of focus, and expression of the president, and in terms of news value, it is superior in terms of character value, as well as another advantage in the closeness of the photographer to the object of the event.
