DEFENSE MECHANISMS OF JASON TODD’S PERSONALITIES IN BATMAN: UNDER THE RED HOOD. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Batman: Under The Red Hood has alluring characters, plot, and many action sequences that are entertaining which satisfies the audience. It is written by Judd Winick and directed by Brandon Vietti. This animated film focuses on the main character named Jason Todd an anti-hero that shows up in Gotham and gaining control of the city with violence methods. This research is mainly focused on analyzing Jason Todd’s personalities and also discovering his defense mechanisms through it. This research has two objectives. The first step is analyzing Jason Todd’s character through his characterization in the film. The second objective is to discover the defense mechanisms in Jason Todd’s personalities. To analyze the problem formulations, this research uses psychoanalytic approach and also some steps have been conducted. First, a close reading to the primary source a film entitled Batman Under The Red Hood. Followed by analyzing the personalities of Jason Todd, finding the defense mechanism in Jason’s personalities, then applying Jason’s personalities with Freud’s defense mechanism. The descriptions that point out of how Jason Todd is an authoritarian, sadistic, egocentric and smart character are able to be found through the conversation that some characters have in the film. It can also be seen through the film’s camera angle and point of view. The displacement and reaction-formation that Jason has in the film can also be seen with the defense mechanism theory, that can be seen through his actions toward Black Mask’s henchmen. Psychoanalytic analysis on literary works can broaden the readers’ perspective about human’s psychology and readers will find it interesting for the application in literary works such as film. xii PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI ABSTRAK SEKARTAJI, MARIA. (2019). DEFENSE MECHANISMS OF JASON TODD’S PERSONALITIES IN BATMAN: UNDER THE RED HOOD. Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Batman: Under The Red Hood mempunyai banyak karakter, plot yang menarik, dan juga adegan aksi yang menghibur yang memuaskan penonton. Film animasi ini ditulis oleh Judd Winick dan disutradarai oleh Brandon Vietti. Fokus pada film animasi ini adalah karakter utama yang bernama Jason Todd, seorang anti-hero yang muncul di kota Gotham dan menguasai kota dengan metode yang keji. Penelitian ini berfokus pada menganalisa kepribadian Jason Todd dan kemudian menggali mekanisme pertahanannya melalui kepribadian tersebut. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis kepribadian Jason Todd dalam film dan menemukan mekanisme pertahanan yang ada pada Jason Todd melalui kepribadian Jason Todd. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan psikoanalisis dan beberapa langkah yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Pertama, penulis telah membaca dengan teliti sumber utama dalam penelitian ini, yaitu film Batman: Under The Red Hood. Langkah selanjutnya adalah menganalisa kepribadian Jason Todd, kemudian menemukan mekanisme pertahanan dalam kepribadian Jason dan kemudian menerapkan kepribadian Jason dengan teori mekanisme pertahanan Freud. Gambaran-gambaran yang menunjukan bahwa Jason Todd adalah seorang karakter yang otoritarian, sadis, egosentris dan pintar bisa dilihat pada percakapan antar tokoh di film ini. Bisa juga dilihat melalui angle dan sudut pandang kamera. Pengelakan dan pembentukan reaksi dalam diri Jason juga dapat dilihat melalui teori mekanisme pertahanan yang dapat dilihat dari tindakan Jason terhadap anak buah Black Mask. Pendekatan psikoanalisis pada literatur akan memperluas pandangan pembaca mengenai psikologis manusia dan akan menarik untuk pembaca karena pendekatan tersebut bisa diaplikasikan pada karya literatur seperti film. xiii PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Film is one of the most powerful forms of literature that can be enjoyed by a lot of people. Film expresses humans’ ideas that communicate through imagery, metaphor and symbol. It communicates through metaphor and symbol. Other than that, it also communicates visually which, is through action, gesture and verbally through dialogue (Boggs & Petrie, 2013, p. 3). Film also uses characters, conflicts and other elements to present a dramatic storyline that is equal to written literary works. A character is the most influential element in a film because its development helps us to understand deeper about the plot. It is also the one that makes us drawn into a film, live action or animation, a character is the one that mostly represents human beings’ daily life and its personalities that are similar in real life. A character is also the one who draws connection with the audience, so a character is a dynamic element that allures the audience to be captivated by the film. Personality in a character is something crucial, it makes the audience feel a lot more relatable to the character in daily life. It makes a character lively and adds interesting development to a storyline in a film. Personalities

Lieber November 2013 Advisor: Sheila Schroeder ©Copyright by Matthew R. Lieber 2013 All Rights Reserved Author: Matthew R. Lieber Title: House of Cards Advisor: Sheila Schroeder Degree Date: November 2013 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to approach adapting a comic book into a film in a unique way. With so many comic-to-film adaptations following the trends of action movies, my goal was to adapt the popular comic book, Batman, into a screenplay that is not an action film. The screenplay, House of Cards, follows the original character of Miranda Greene as she attempts to understand insanity in Gotham’s most famous criminal, the Joker. The research for this project includes a detailed look at the comic book’s publication history, as well as previous film adaptations of Batman, and Batman in other relevant media.
