Hyperglycemia is a condition of elevated blood sugar levels that can potentially lead to various health complications if not controlled early. This condition is often influenced by unhealthy eating habits, lack of physical activity, and low awareness among adolescents regarding regular blood sugar checks. Adolescents are an age group that is vulnerable to lifestyle changes, putting them at risk of developing metabolic disorders later in life. This community service activity aims to increase adolescent knowledge and awareness regarding the dangers of hyperglycemia and the importance of preventive measures from school age. The activity was carried out at SMK Nurul Ulum Lebaksiu, involving 59 students as participants. The methods used included health education through audio-visual media, interactive lectures, discussions, and Random Blood Sugar (GDS) tests for early detection. The results of the activity showed an increase in student knowledge based on a comparison of pre-test and post-test scores, as well as the implementation of GDS tests on all participants. This activity is expected to foster healthy lifestyle behaviors and increase adolescent awareness of the prevention of non-communicable diseases.

This final project aims to examine how cinematographic techniques are applied by the Director of Photography (DoP) to enhance the delivery of visual messages in the feature video "Ibu untuk Bumi", which highlights the role of mothers in shaping sustainable lifestyle habits within the family. This research employs a qualitative approach using a production study method. The author was directly involved as the DoP, designing the visual concept from pre-production to post-production. The analyzed elements include composition arrangement, camera angle selection, shot type, camera movement, and lighting. Shots such as medium shots and close-ups were used to build emotional closeness between the subject and the audience. The lighting system combined key light, fill light, and back light to create a natural atmosphere that supports the narrative. The results show that consciously designed cinematographic techniques can reinforce the message of a feature video, especially when the visual narrative focuses on everyday life relatable to the audience. This work demonstrates that the DoP plays a vital role in delivering social messages and shaping a reflective and empathetic viewing experience.
