I decided to make a political cartoon for this project. Mr. Florendo said this could be funny, so I got the idea to photoshop Borat and the current president in a scene together with Rudy Giuliani. The message of this is that America is not actually a great success right now, politicians and leadership is kind of a wreck. But Borat enjoys it.
I used clipping mask and blending techniques. I used clipping masks to make my layers work, I blended with the brush tool, and used different color filters with different opacities to make the rainbow look semi realistic.
I honestly thought this was fun! You don't have to take this assignment too seriously if you don't want to, which I enjoyed. I feel like this is a lot more creative and liberating than natural composition, which seems to require more skill.
