DNTM 7 - EP 5 PHOTO REVIEW

Again, just my personal opinion. The judges comments matter the most for sure but I do hope my opinions can help you at least in some ways. 🫶 Lyanka & tezu - A unique concept, my interpretation for this photo could be about teamwork or sportsmanship in a model-esque way, which I like. Just one comment though for tezu. I noticed on the hair or clothes wind/motion effect, although is a great idea in photos, sometimes can be overused like in your case which is used for the 3rd straight week. Just don’t use it too much because even without the need for the motion effect could still produce amazing shots like what you did the first 2 weeks. Lyanka on the other hand, it finally showed a different side of you which I like. Just one critique.. I know it’s a hug so it makes sense but make sure to show more of your gorgeous face with intimacy like in your current photo. But other than that, I love the overall photo. I get your story here. Oren & Torree - So editorial, so vintage, and I could see this in a magazine. I love it. I love the photo quality because it doesn’t look like from AI. Your looks screams very high fashion for me. I love the expression for both models. Just one comment for Oren. This is just my opinion. The poses work for both of you but yours stood out just a little less than Torree especially on how you are sitting. It worked on your last week’s shot but I do feel like a different strong pose this week would be a tiny bit better, BUT I still do think it is still a strong shot and again you injected your unique identity there, and your face is FIERCE baby.. Then torree, I love how you pose that shows your strength which is your figure. You standing there looking beat up but still strong. And how you open your legs a bit to give way to Oren but you still stood out a bit more. Very great overall shot! I think this is the best out of the bunch. RobbieRIOT & camell22 - Redemption arc is getting stronger, especially for Robbie. In previous photos, fierce shots were lacking from you. But finally you shown that you can be F-I-E-R-C-E! You’re sitting there like a goddess. So regal, so elegant, and I like it. And camell, I love how you’re more of a support but you stand on your own. This is like the complete opposite of Torree & Oren’s shot where Robbie, the one who’s sitting down, stood out more than camell22. For the looks, I am not overly amazed but still a good cohesive concept. But overall shot is nice! honey & TommyXx - If the instructions were different, I think this would’ve been a very strong shot for me. Cus I like the dramatics of this shot. But if this were to become an editorial shot, I don’t think this is like a strong shot but more of an action film poster and the creativeness is a bit lacking. Honey, I do wish your hair is the same as your makeover because I think it would fit so much with the boxing theme because it’s so edgy and strong, but I get why you change it a bit for this specific photo. And the face, I think I need more from it. Even facing the camera or not, I want to see your presence. For tommy, I love the hair it fits on the theme, but the face, same as honey, I get you’re getting punched here but I also need to see your strong presence. HOWEVER, I do think it’s still a good shot. The dramatic lighting is the best from the bunch IMO. So it’s a conflicting shot to me. Like I would love it if it’s a different instruction, but def not for an editorial photo. Zee_ & caramels - Good comments first. I understood the creativity of this shot. You used a different take on the looks that’s not conventional to the boxing theme, which I totally respect and applaud. Now, for the execution and production, this is the downside for me. Based on this photo, I can tell that there were be a lot of miscommunications because it felt so disconnected. I am not saying that you guys should hug too or be closer. For both masculine models, it could be very hard to conceptualize but I think there are better choices to show more chemistry. But in this shot, sadly, Idon’t see a chemistry whatsoever. Individually, I do see Zee standing out more but still lacking a bit for me especially you’re at the back and sitting on the corner but your face card never declines. For caramels, I know you’re trying your best to create dynamic posing because of the last critiques but make sure to do it with intent and not forcing it. Cus it looked less modeling and more action-ey for me. Overall, unfortunately I think it could’ve been a better shot imo cus I know both of you can do better than this. #dntm7
