ANTM4 Photoshoot 9

#DNTM4 Ok so this week I will do the same thing as last week but the pose will be weighted more by counting that score twice then dividing by 5. Overall I enjoy that this shoot had the most realistic high fashion with the theme in general and the execution from the models was strong as a group! Marilise Pose: 5 Face: 6 Styling: 7 Composition: 7 This pose is probably my least favorite of the bunch, which in a week about the pose that is tough. The overall photo feels clean and polished, but the brief was about creating angles in the pose, and this just feels really uninspired. It is giving Instagram not high fashion. Had you hunches the shoulder forward, tilted the knee the was up a bit toward the camera and the bottom leg bent at the knee resting on the toe instead of the heal it gives a bit more excitement and high fashion. The hair looks better in this shot but I think you could have styled it in a more high fashion way still. You have so much hair to work with I want to see something with it. Total: 6.0 Marquis Pose: 8 Face: 7 Styling: 8 Composition: 7 Pose is the best one when you consider the brief. The only thing I will say about the pose I think actually fits into the composition score more which is that the arm resting on the leg looks a bit oddly placed there (like almost too far in front of the leg), but it is minor. The arm you are resting on could have been angled a biiiiit more so your elbow to hand area isn’t pointed directly to camera. It looks a bit stumpy, but again it’s a minor flaw. The face is good because it looks very high fashion. You do lose a bit of your beautiful bone structure with the lighting. The outfit is super nice it could have even been strong enough without the train of fabric. I am not sure if the photo would look better or worse without the train? This is your best photo of the season either way. Total: 7.6 LeQuishaQ Pose: 7 Face: 7 Styling: 9 Composition: 8 Given the dress, you did about as much as you could do with the lower body, but the brief asking for angles and strong poses means I have to cap this pose score at a 7. The face is strong but needed to catch the light a bit more. The dress is the best styling choice all season from any model. The overall photo stands out and is yet another consistent entry for you. These girls just can’t catch you. Total: 7.6 GuiltyAsSin Pose: 5 Face: 6 Styling: 6 Composition: 7 This is a miss for me. I like what you tried to do but the bottom leg getting cropped out is very distracting to the eye. The upper body is also a bit stiff and could have had some slouch to it or something to make this work. The face is weak except for the eyes. The eyes are giving a good smize, but the rest of your face feels a bit lacking. Overall the photo is good, but when you isolate the parts and compare it to the brief and the other entries, it doesn’t hold up this week. Total: 5.8 SpaceLab Pose: 6 Face: 6 Styling: 6 Composition: 6 If I had to picture your photo before I saw it, this is what I would have pictured in my mind. It’s a fine photo, but this deep in the competition you have to step up and do better than fine. The pose is alright, but what could have elevated this would be the straight leg being a bit closer to the box so your knee goes past the other leg more, and then your upper body hunched a bit forward so you could stick out your neck and serve some sass. The clothes are also fine, but not really the direction I think that matches this studio black and white theme. Some of the others got the memo on what style works for this brief a bit better. I made a few edits just to the pose if you want to see that version to see what I meant. Total: 6.0 CupidStunt Pose: 6 Face: 6 Styling: 8 Composition: 7 Considering the dress, you couldn’t do much with the lower body, but I would have liked to see something. I know this is a real dress, but if you had modified it to have a slightly different bottom to the skit where you would be able to move your legs a bit more you could have worked a different angle with the legs. The upper body is nice but it is a bit look at me, and not exactly saying high fashion. The jaw line is giving as well a the neck, but so much of a profile in this shot I couldn’t score the face higher than 6. The dress is obviously very high fashion, I am a fan of using real looks since none of us really decide what high fashion is, but I would have liked to see some personal touch to it. Style it with some jewelry on the neck even? It is a strong entry but it has more potential than this. Total: 6.6 Antog Pose: 7 Face: 7 Styling: 6 Composition: 7 This pose is not my personal favorite, but I liked that you did something different and made it work. Although the back leg is getting hidden in the fabric I can still see where it goes so it isn’t as bad. I would have maybe liked this better if you had bent the bottom arm a little bit more so the fabric would come up a bit more. Not a lot because then you cross into something tacky, but I think it would have added a bit better angles. Even though the eyes are closed it works for this shot because the makeup is well done and you are catching the light well. I think you could have done more with the styling to make it look more high fashion and elegant, but it isn’t bad. Overall good job but just doesn’t stand out like some of the other photos did. Total: 6.8 Fancy Pose: 7 Face: 7 Styling: 6 Composition: 6 I like the pose. It does create angles and it sets you up for the face which you delivered on. The top and jacket work really really well for this look, but the pants were not the right choice for me. If you had gone with something a bit less busy it would have given this photo a bit more polish. The only other thing that I struggle with is the height of the box. It looks like your elbow should be resting on it the way it is exactly parallel to it, so either the box could have been higher so that you were leaning on it, or you could have tilted your body back a it further to create a better angle. Overall it’s a good shot. Total: 6.6 Ranks Marquis 7.6 Quisha 7.6 Antog 6.8 Fancy 6.6 Cupid 6.6 Marilise 6.0 Space: 6.0 Guilty 5.8
