Abstract
Elementary school students need the addition of musical material that is appropriate for their age and culture. This research aims to make children^s songs in the form of animated videos that are oriented toward local wisdom and traditional values. Research has been conducted with a developmental research design by combining quantitative and qualitative approaches. This paper is limited to explaining the research results of the prototyping process and limited trials. Quantitative data collection is done through surveys, and qualitative data collection is done through interviews. The respondents involved were 26 elementary school students. Three aspects of the song^s animated video were tested on respondents, including lyrics, melody, and video visualization. The results showed the following: First, the majority of students agreed that songs have important messages, although some words need further explanation because they are not considered familiar. Second, the majority of students agreed that melodies were pleasant to hear and easy to sing, and musical instruments were favored, although not all students were encouraged to move and dance to the music. Third, the majority of students agree that the video is interesting and that the video quality is good, so the video is liked and entertaining. It can be concluded that the presence of song animation videos based on local wisdom is favored by elementary school students so that it can be used as appropriate and interesting teaching material in music learning.
