OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[Adeline]

Thank you Judges for your critiques. I found them very helpful, and in all honesty, agree with the majority each of you said. I found my shot to be 'good' but no where near stellar, and your marks represent that. I hope to take your notes forward in helping me become a better model in the contest, while also improving my screenshot techniques and creativity.

Congrats to my fellow models for passing on to the next round. Ferah and Adam (maybe?), even if you all aren't moving forward, continue to take beautiful screenies. You're both really good at it, and if you weren't you wouldn't have chosen to compete. Much love ~ Ade

Adam and Ferah. ; ;
You're both too adorable to be out of the running.

[Tyriont]

I apologize for nothing.

The adorableness will never leave!

Wow! first off I can't believe I made it into round 2!!!! /faintsslightly. I'm a lil' nervous about it now haha, but we'll see what we'll see. Also thank you judges for taking the time to share your critiques with all of us, hopefully we can nail what you all like and are looking for personally from us!!

*goes back to being nerv-e-xcited!*

This cycle they had us do 4 different shots, Battle (no dungeons/instances), Amphitheater, Scenic, and Close up picture (which wasn't judged), so I'm not sure what they'll ask for next cycle

I happened across this picture, and I couldn't help but think that it is something we should all keep in mind (the keeping angles of our shots in mind I mean >.> )



Or we may end up with unintended interesting...concepts in our pictures LOL

Rongi has already said that Judge D from the men's and women's competition are DIFFERENT PEOPLE. It's not surprising at all that they should have different opinions. I'm not seeing any favoritism at all.

Also if this competition is going to put guidelines in for judging then those guidelines should be broad like "Pictures will be judged according to creativity and the scene chosen". Judges should be allowed and encouraged to judge according to personal preferences. Otherwise every judge is just going to score every picture the same every single time and it'd defeat the purpose completely.

Sorry for being snarky here, but learn to read.

The female JUDGE D is not different for male and females if its the FEMALE JUDGE. Thus the opinion is NOT DIFFERENT...ERMG PEOPLES...
I was stating a simple fact that is once again being looked over, just like every other fact I have mentioned in this darn thing.

And if judges arent scoring the SAME WAY...then it does defeat the purpose.... /flail

Look I understand this is all community driven/ran and the people volunteering their time to judge/photoshoot themselves are not by any means phd graduates in this type of field, I get it, im just trying to state a simple but already blaring fact that the judging is not being done in a more careful approach.
