Please help!!! I need an idea for a project in my digital toolbox class. I need to use photoshop to merge together at least 3 images to provoke an idea or message. Like choosing an issue in society and using a brand to extort it.
For example:
An image of an overweight kid standing in front of McDonalds to show that McDonalds will make you fat and causes obesity in children.
An image of a hand tattooing a baby a picture of a Disney character to provoke the message that Disney is forced into our childhood minds from birth.
A slogan would be helpful too since we have to make one...
Thank you!!!

How about some product related to getting/staying slim - Diet Coke, 'Lite' .... whatever is common in your country eg. http://www.heruni.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/diet-foods.jpg stocked to the hilt on the kitchen shelves, but the family is obese & lazy ?
Watching supermodels walk the ramp & trying to emulate their figure, etc. by becoming anorexic ? You could show magazines with Size 0 model photos, posters in the room, etc. while the girl tries to emulate in front of a mirror.
Something similar with Health drinks, sugar-free foods, etc....
New gadgets from Apple that kids get hooked on or enticed by ? Almost a status symbol too, with people lining up for hours/days in front of stores before a new launch...
Movie franchises & their related products - whether toys, masks, clothes, or whatever - kids dreaming of Being that character & trying dangerous stunts or picking up wrong attitudes/habits ?
Hope these spark off ideas...

Do I have a chance at getting into UC Berkeley?
L2107
I'm a junior right now. I have a UW: 4.00 GPA and W: 4.72 GPA. I've taken 4 AP classes so far (APUSH, Comp Sci, Art History, Chemistry). I just took my first SAT in March and got my score which was 2070 (620 CR 800 M 650 W) which I am not too impressed with but am kinda on the edge of whether to take it again or not in October. I've taken the Korean SAT and got a 770 and im going to take the Chemistry SAT and Math II SAT this year. (both sat's i am fairly certain i will get over 750). I want to major in computer science or programming and for my extracurriculars I've been playing the drums and guitar at my church since 7th grade, i've recently started programming my own windows phone applications this year and will continue to do so, i've taken a job recently as a beta tester for a mobile phone app company, i've volunteered at my church's VBS and other activities since 7th grade also, i've made many visual effects videos which are posted on youtube.
So with this is it a good enough of a chance to get into UC Berkeley? I feel that because my SAT Score is lower than the average at Berkeley I won't stand a chance.
i am a california resident

GPA is strong, you've taken some AP's which is good, your SAT score is a little above average for UC Berkeley students which is good. Your extracurricular activities relate to your intended field of study which is very beneficial. The main weakness is your SAT II scores. I hope you're aware that with the crazy curve on most language tests, a 770 on Korean is only equal to 26th percentile and is thus rather unimpressive (http://media.collegeboard.com/digitalServices/pdf/SAT-Subject_Tests_Percentile_Ranks_2011.pdf ). Other than that, it seems like a strong application, but you'll still want to try and differentiate yourself as much on college applications as possible, because there are plenty of kids who would just love to go into a major dealing with computer anything and who tinker around with various gadgets and what not. Based on where you are right now, I'd say about 60-70% chance of getting in.
