This research innovates dance creation by integrating Betawi dance, cinematography, music technology, visual arts, and scenography, aiming to broaden our understanding of dance in a cinematic format. It challenges the assumption that dance is confined to stages and advocates for a broader visual platform. Drawing inspiration from the Topeng Nindak Jirumklan, the dance film symbolizes life stages. The research problem formulation for creating a dance film involves exploring how to depict the different phases of life using the framework of a single-mask dance that features four mask characters. Betawi Mask Dance is an adaptation of the Cirebon Babakan mask, where each dance embodies aspects of human life. Using a qualitative approach, this study encompasses focus determination, data collection, observation, document use, interviews, and data collection matrices. Guided by Hawkins’ creation theory, it explores experiences, perceptions, feelings, imaginations, realizations, and formations. The anticipated outcomes of Betawi arts, including mask dances, Wayang, and Tanjidor music, extending across various regions with Malay influence, and the dance film Nindak Jirumklan, incorporating music, dance, comedy, and drama, inspired by the single mask dance, encompasses providing an imaginative journey, enriching artistic memories, exploring space through technology, and contributing to choreographic knowledge.
