Artist Statement
1) The style elements I took from the example campaign ads was the one with Obama had the mushroom cloud behind him. i used something similar to that because i thought of McCain and how his thoughts on war is positive. so seeing your example ad helped me think of a good ad for me to make using McCain.
2) The main tools i used to help create my AD's was layer masks. The layer masks helped me alot with the pictures because what i would need had a lot of unnessicary things around the pictures. using the layer mask helped take everything out that i did not need and keep the main image in the picture i wanted.
3) the main changes i made was to take everything around the photo of McCain and Obama out so it would just be a picture of the Running presidents. i dont think i would change anything because i feel that i did everything good to my standards.
