What Should I Do

I've decided to focus on 2-D images for my final project. The content of which, however, is still up in the air. I have two solid ideas that I think will work, and I could go either way. My first idea deals with smiles and clowns, something that has always interested me. I would take a stock photo of myself, and apply common smiles over my face, such as the Smiley smile, or the Joker's glasow smile. This would give an odd look as to how we as a society view joy, since the effects would undoubtly look kind of creepy.

My other idea deals with advertisements. I've always found it odd that most advertisements preach the "Use us and get laid" approach, and I think it would be funny to parody this. I'd use modern jobs (DJ's, plumbers, this sort of thing) and make them look epic. Another idea for this is to use designer drugs, such as meth ("It'll blow your mind!"), and glorify them sarcastically. Again, my style will be very bright, very happy, and very pop art.
