Cycle 4 Week 2: Baby photos.
1. Angelo- LOVE IT! Really sexy, cool and fashionable- you've added the fashion spin to your baby photo which I think was the point of the shoot and not everyone has done that.
2. Chris- love the shapes created with your body and you're giving me some drama in the eyes, very creative.
3. Christian- legs look a little stumpy, but i really like the symmetry of the arms and your face is great.
4. Alejandro- like the artistic side of this shot, eyes seem slightly disconnected though, like they are looking just above the lens.
5. Brianna- Great confidence and adorable baby pic! Don't see how they relate, though.
6. Abby- this is hilarious (in a good way), I love your massive eyes! So interesting.
7. George- doesn't have heaps of a fashion edge, but you are my favourite face in the comp and knowing you from all-antm, I love your style
8. Mitchell- seems a bit too candid, would've looked better as a full body, but those eyes- DAMN!
9. Emily- soooooooo pretty, but I think it was a wasted opportunity to produce a killer shot. Instead of reenacting the photo and sitting there smiling, I would've loved to see some crazy poses in the chair, give it more of a fashion edge.
10. Sparrow- I think wearing the baggy pants with the tight shirt was a mistake- makes you look much wider than you are in the bottom half, but I really like your look.
11. Edith- this is a sexy kind of pose, but you lack the confidence and self assurance behind it to make it convincing.
ELIMINATED:
12. Victoria- seems kinda awkward and uncontrolled, I dont really get it
WEEK 3- Monsters
1. Alejandro- HOLY SHITBALLS I think this is one of my fave online NTM pictures I have ever seen. The position your body is in is so crazily animalistic and savage.
2. George- those eyes!! <3 I love the story behind this. Like you ate your lover to death and now can't stand to leave their body haha. So cool. I love weird, sick crap like that.
3. Sparrow- This is so cool, I really love the feeling of a story, like you've been caught in the act and are a bit reserved or cautious about who is watching you. Could see this as a screenshot from a horror movie. Great eyes, can't fault it!
4. Edith- LOVE the styling!! And the eyes are so gorgeous. Mouth is a little tense, but as a whole picture, it really works.
5. Abby- once again, I'm completely enthralled by your eyes. But also once again, I don't see anything fashion about it.
6. Angelo- love the intensity of the eyes, but I think it would look better without the arm there. I think you could've pushed the boundaries a little more, it seems kind of generic and predictable.
7. Christian- I think you relied on styling a little too much, without the costume I wouldn't know you were an animal or a monster, there's just not much feeling or no character behind it, as good as you look. Its like you're not sure whether you are actually a monster or not haha.
8. Chris- I like what you went for, but...lord, how do I say this- because of where your hands are...it kinda looks like you've bitten your thing off lmao!!!
9. Emily- this is just way too heavily edited for my liking, I can't tell which parts of it are actually you and what's fake. But in saying that, if I focus solely on the face, it is quite strong, so that saves you from the Bottom 2.
10. Mitchell- Cool styling but maybe not appropriate for the shoot. Droopy eyes.
ELIMINATED:
11. Brianna- take away the makeup and it's nothing but a beauty shot. There's no feeling behind it, it's kinda boring, I hate to say.
WEEK 4- Natural Beauty Shot.
1. Brianna- from worst to first! This is STUNNING. So naturally beautiful and the lighting shows off your features perfectly, especially eyes and lips.
2. Abby- finally seeing some fashion edge to your pictures! This is gorgeous.
3. Chris- I don't like how you're holding the plant, it seems kinda purposeless, but there's no denying that face is beautiful and so alluring.
4. Sparrow- I love how your face looks different in every shot I've seen so far. There's a really interesting expression happening there that I think could be interpreted in many different ways, meaning it's gonna appeal to a lot of different people.
5. George- I don't think this is the best you could do, but like I said in week one, you've got a great look. Love the lips in this one.
6. Alejandro- This picture is pretty awesome. I dunno what the exact brief was, but judging by the look of everyone else's I assume it was meant to be more natural than this and it seems you are hiding behind photographic effects.
7. Christian- Can't believe you were eliminated for this! It does gimme a liiiiiitle bit of a Zoolander Blue Steel vibe haha, but it has more feeling than the ones below.
8. Emily- sucha pretty face, but is a little stiff and uncomfortable.
9. Edith- It is very pretty, but I don't find it particularly interesting, it doesn't have that kind of wow factor that you look for in a beauty shot.
ELIMINATED:
10. Angelo- face has been completely washed out and the eyes are sleepy.
WEEK 5- Modern Card (?)
1. Brianna- killer legs!!! Beautiful face. I don't think I understand the concept of this whole shoot, but I love your picture! haha
2. Alejandro- love the styling and the face, really interesting. But those hands look monstrous! Haha. One looks massive and the other looks like a fin.
3. Edith- This is the best I've seen your face, its such a good angle for you! Great cheekbones and love the drooping downwards lips!
4. George- such a shame you quit
There's not a whole lot of feeling behind this, but this is a great angle for your face.
5. Emily- so pretty! finally I can say that about your picture WITHOUT following it up with a "BUT" haha, this is a lovely picture.
6. Chris- really cool styling and colouring, I think the "smize" seems a little forced though.
7. Sparrow- really strong gaze into the camera, very commanding. Could've been more adventurous with the creative side of it, though.
8. Angelo- I actually don't think this is a bad photo, but for some reason it doesn't grab me as much as the others.
9. Abby- really don't wanna have to say I would eliminate you here, but it is the worst picture imo. The proportions of your face, limbs and body seem really odd and I'm not getting anything from the eyes like I usually do. You're saved by George's quitting
WEEK 6- Nerds
1. Emily- FINALLY!! Living up to her potential!
2. Chris
3. Sparrow
4. Brianna
5. Alejandro- I liked it better in the thumbnail on the facebook where it looked like her was laying down.
6. Abby
7. Edith- god awful camera effect.
ELIMINATED:
8. Angelo
WEEK 6- Top Model in Action
1. Chris- this is really cool and suave. I love how effortless it is, like you aren't trying too hard, which is something I criticised you for last week.
2. Brianna- easy, breazy and beautiful!!
3. Angelo- this is really cool, but it also has a story behind the eyes, a kind of pain, like a lost soul. Its nice!
4. Emily- great eyes and beautiful styling! Very chic. Not too keen on the open mouth though.
5. Sparrow- don't really like the idea behind this shot and your eyes are kinda disconnected, but your features save you.
6. Alejandro- oooh undies!! haha
There's something strange going on with the face.
7. Abby- I don't really like the expression on your face or the heart made with the hands, which is difficult to make out anyway at the angle its on. You've gone back to taking a pretty picture without the fashion edge.
WEEK 7- Deadly Sins.
1. Chris- Not only does the styling work but your face looks incredible.
2. Abby- I love how kitsch this is, very cute and quirky and I like how you've gotten into character. Its a great angle for your face, even though I think you've strained your neck a little.
3. Emily- This is gorgeous, really sexy, great styling and some of the best makeup I've seen this cycle.
4. Brianna- LOVE the energy in the face, but it ends there, the body is very dead. This is such a bad angle for a lying down shot, it makes your body look 20 times longer than it should be in comparison with your head.
5. Sparrow- I see greed in the styling and props, but not in the eyes.
6. Alejandro- I'm guessing you didn;t do the shoot and just sent this in coz it doesn;t convey pride to me. You are saved for having a stronger portfolio.
ELIMINATED
7. Angelo- this doesn't convey envy at ALL. It's quite boring.
WEEK 8-
1. Sparrow- I think you've edited in the donkey, but regardless, this pic is really edgy and cool.
2. Brianna- THAT FACE!!! <3 So gorgeous. I like how you matched your styling with the dog, showed you thought about the image as a whole and it makes it much more interesting.
3. Chris- like the pose, interaction with the animal seems kinda awkward though.
4. Emily- pretty, but too candid, doesn't look like a model in a fashion campaign at ALL.
5. Abby- Makeup is kinda trashy.
ELIMINATED:
6. Angelo- it must seem like I hate you haha, but yeah this is the weakest for me.
WEEK 9- Levis
1. Brianna- how old are you? I dont even know if its legal for me to be looking at this lmao! Best BY FAR though. Kinda resemble. Michaela from Cycle 2 of NZNTM!
2. Abby- your best yet!! I love the variety in the three different shots!
3. Emily- LOVE the two on the outsides, they are gorgeous!! You could be number 1 if you didn't look so drunk in the middle one haha!
ELIMINATED:
4. Chris- really like the third one, I just wish the other 2 were a little more masculine.
5. Sparrow- hate to eliminate you, but the three shots are too similar, no variety.
