In order to preserve my anonymity, I have decided to forgo a voice recording on this screen cast. If you have any questions about any steps in this video, please ask below and include a timestamp. I will be around all evening to answer any questions about memesmithing. We already had a great warmup discussion going last night.
While this video is roughly 20 minutes in length, a typical meme only takes me around 5 minutes to produce. The Elon Musk memes I’ve been making require a bit more work to get right. If all you wish to do is layer a Pepe atop an image, that can be done in a matter of minutes, and the skills necessary to accomplish that feat are the same as presented in this video.
As a last note, I just uploaded this video to Rumble, so the resolution is still rather poor. Give it another hour, and the 720p version should be processed.
Have fun! Don’t forget to post your finished memes on The Great Awakening tonight. Top memes will be stickied!
I tried that, but the result wasn't great. Not all faces are perfectly alike, and the result didn't look quite as good. Plus, a goofy painted mustache makes the meme funnier in my opinion.

If I was doing that in, say, Photoshop, I would simply erase the lip on the front layer to expose the moustache behind. Feasible?

Understood, thanks.
