\n\tThe head of the Animation Major of Udinus, Dr. Khafiizh Hastuti, M.Kom said that she was proud of the accomplishment. She highlighted that there were 13.000 movies from 120 countries in that festival, and \u2018Si Warik\u2019 was one of them. Si Warik Animation would later be featured at SWIFF 2023.

\n\t\u201cI am proud of this short movie created by the youths of our nation, specifically by the Animation Major of Udinus for having been successfully curated in such a prestigious movie festival\u201d, Khafiizh said.<\/p>\n
\n\tKhafiizh explained that 21 Animation Major students were involved in the making process of this movie, alongside six alumni and the Animation Major\u2019s professors as supervisors. The students were involved in every production process which consists of pre-production and 2D animation, production and 3D animation, and post-production process. Not only did the production involve the students, but it also involved three animators from the Manimonki Studio as industrial partners.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cManimonki Studio\u2019s role was to share their knowledge both in technicality and in production management, ensuring that the movie met the industry standards and visual quality,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
\n\tThis 20-minute 3D movie tells a story of a pair of friends, Warik and Dian. They are trying to save the last field from a menacing black smoke creature. This movie was adapted from a Semarang cultural icon namely, Warak Ngendhog. Not only that, but this movie also had tons of references to Semarang\u2019s local culture. <\/p>\n
\tThe film\u2019s producer, Nita Virena Nathania who was also one of the lecturers of the Animation Major of Udinus, said that this movie aimed to be a show for kids. Not only that, but the production of this movie also had a specific purpose to gain knowledge and to bring educational messages to Indonesian children.<\/p>\n
The essence of making this movie is in the slogan \u2018Petualangan Warak Cilik Membawa Pesan Pendidikan\u2019. In the movie, Nita revealed a message aimed at youths to conserve nature.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn this mini-movie, we encourage the young audience to conserve nature. Moreover, we also hope that this movie will educate children and instill scientific knowledge, etc,\u201d said Nita. (Humas Udinus\/Alex. Foto: Humas Udinus)<\/p>\n
