Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic hits every factor of our lives, including entertainment. The face-to-face environment in the movie-going experience has become a high health risk due to the nature of watching movies in a dark, closed-spaced venue. Movie theatres in Indonesia were required to shut down by government regulations for nearly a year, affecting the distribution of movies, not only the production house but also student films. With the last stage of filmmaking disrupted, which is distribution, the only question remains: is there any option to distribute the film, especially student films? This study aims to examine and analyze a particular issue, the Exhibition stage for student films in Jakarta, Indonesia, using descriptive research to define and list requirements for creating screening space suited for student films. For this research, we use the observational method to collect data. The research finds four alternate screening spaces for student films to exhibit and watch movies in Jakarta: Non-Conventional Theatrical Exhibition and Non-Theatrical Screening Space.
