Make a Change:

Politcal Cartoon

Cartoons have been used for a very long time to caricature ideas and people to shine a light on ideas that don't always seem obvious.

It is rather difficult to hit that punch line when it comes to a cartoon. You can either make a short comic or a short video to represent your idea.

 

Brainstorm some ideas based on the issue you have been studying. What are some things that struck you as interesting or out of place?

 

Keep in mind your artistic skills and the rules on how to make a comic funny.

 

Most comics nowadays are created in programmes like photoshop but there are free ones like medibang. That way you can get the best colours. But many also start with a hand-drawn sketch that they scan or take a photo of to then make into a comic.

I suggest making a few comic strips and asking others which ones have the most impact and then develop that one to a digital piece.

 

You should then plan to have this comic published in one form or another.

The comic by itself can be handed in for an English assessment which is to produce a visual and verbal text.
