Natural fiber based composite materials are increasingly being developed as an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic fiber-based composites. This study aims to characterize the thermal and mechanical properties of natural fiber composite materials and evaluate their potential use as sustainable materials. Composites are made using natural fibers as reinforcement and a polymer matrix through a specific molding method. Mechanical property characterization includes tensile tests, flexural tests, and impact tests, while thermal property characterization is carried out using thermal analysis to determine the thermal stability of the material. The test results show that the addition of natural fibers has a significant effect on improving the mechanical properties of the composite, especially tensile strength and elastic modulus, compared to the unreinforced matrix. In addition, natural fiber composites show quite good thermal stability over a certain temperature range, making them suitable for non-structural applications. Based on these results, natural fiber composite materials have the potential to be developed as environmentally friendly materials that have competitive mechanical and thermal performance.

Academic stress is a prevalent issue among Indonesian students, affecting both their academic performance and mental well-being.

The data was collected through questionnaires administered before and after students were exposed to 1-3 minute educational videos. The results showed a notable increase in the average knowledge score, from 82.71 to 85. The findings suggest that short videos, which are visually engaging and easy to access, are highly effective for Generation Z learners. Social media platforms, particularly TikTok and Instagram, can be valuable tools for early psychological intervention, providing students with accessible resources to manage academic stress on their own. This study highlights the potential of leveraging digital platforms to support student well-being and offers insights into innovative approaches for addressing mental health challenges in educational settings.

This final project report aims to explain the application of a three-act structure in writing a feature video script entitled "Bamboo Melody: Reviving a Traditional Symphony." The three-act structure is used as a narrative approach that functions to raise the issue of the fading of the angklung's sound philosophy among Generation Z. Each act plays an important role in building a structured and easily understood storyline for the audience. The first act focuses on the introduction of the angklung's philosophical meaning. In this act, the audience is invited to understand more deeply about the cultural values contained in the angklung, especially through the perspective of angklung craftsmen who have a direct relationship with the creation of this traditional musical instrument. The explanations from the craftsmen provide an overview of how the angklung is not only a musical instrument, but also a symbol of a profound philosophy of life. The second act highlights the crisis of cultural regeneration, which is a major challenge in preserving traditions. In this act, the perspective of cultural experts is introduced to provide an analysis of how the younger generation, especially Generation Z, is increasingly alienated from traditional cultural values, including the angklung. Cultural experts explain various factors that cause the angklung and other cultural values to be less familiar to the younger generation, who are more accustomed to global popular culture. The third act demonstrates concrete efforts to preserve angklung culture through testimonies from young angklung players and performances at Saung Angklung Udjo. Through this performance, the audience sees how the angklung remains relevant and can be revived by involving a younger generation that is adaptable to developments in media and technology. The story's conclusion illustrates that cultural regeneration can be achieved through a creative approach and the active involvement of the younger generation, so that the angklung's sound philosophy becomes more than just a discourse but can also contribute to social harmony relevant to the current context.

This Final Project report discusses the visual design process by the author as Director of Photography (DoP) in the creation of a feature video entitled "Bamboo Melody: Reviving a Traditional Symphony." This work aims to highlight the challenges faced in preserving the art of angklung music in the modern era, particularly the low interest of Generation Z in traditional culture. Angklung, which is one of Indonesia's cultural heritages, is experiencing a regeneration crisis, where the successors of this tradition are decreasing.

In the production stage, shooting techniques were carefully selected to ensure aesthetics and clear communication in each frame. The results of the application of appropriate shooting techniques are proven to be able to present the philosophical value of angklung aesthetically and communicatively. Through powerful visuals, viewers can experience the depth of meaning behind this traditional musical instrument. Furthermore, this work concludes with testimonials from young angklung players and an angklung performance at Saung Angklung Udjo, illustrating concrete efforts to preserve angklung culture. This section emphasizes the importance of youth involvement in cultural regeneration, demonstrating that with a creative approach, the angklung's sound philosophy can be revived and well-received by Generation Z. Therefore, this work not only conveys solutions in the form of discourse but also provides a concrete illustration of cultural preservation through contemporary media that is accessible and understandable to the younger generation.

The problem of waste dumping on Bali coast must be regarded as an ecological crisis which proves to be unseen under many perspectives. The article is about the making of a documentary film Apocalyptic Tides as an advocacy and educational tool bringing up this issue by means of the expository documentary style with highlights of poetry and performance elements in play.
