This is my semiotics project. The character I used for this project was Charlie Chaplin I made two photoshopped images and one PAPERmache image. I made the paper mache image out of a balloon and newspaper and a few photoshopped pieces of paper that look like a dollar‚ this was the wealthy part of the project.
