OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[Urusamajor]

That's so cute Adam. I can't wait to see what else is in store art wise for the YT cycle !!!

[Psychosamm]

Haha talk bubbles, that's adorable, can't wait to see all the upgrades you make from YT1 to YT2 :P

[AdamFyi]

the other Judge's (as Terrini guessed it) Talk bubbles!

Ahem, you still haven't sent me the other Judge's portraits and costume they want me to draw for them for reference yet. I'm still waiting for them. Or else I'll just draw everyone else in their small clothes. >:T

Now does everyone see why I was screaming for you to email me for 3 days straight?!

I want to participate in the screaming..

Check your email Addy-waddy! I want you to show off the Judges table first so they can see what it is going to look like and develop an outfit around it! Since we are going with the computer-y/steam punk theme for the Judges table I am sure the Judges will want to glamour an outfit to fit that theme! Once that guy is shown, theyll send in their stuff real quick and you can work on that while I photoshop them into the table. Hehe.

Youtube Cycle 1 is great! I still watch a few parts of it all the time just because I am so proud of myself for finishing a long term project xD
Cycle 2 is going to be radically different! So far the models and Adeline seem pretty positive about the way its set up, so I hope all the fans enjoy it too! My goal for Cycle 2 is to make the video more watchable "for the masses." Cycle 1 was very Judging Critique heavy and thanks to my (non)editing in the last few episodes it really slowed down the flow of the episodes. But it was soooo hard to pick out critiques from hour long skype conversations!

For cycle 2, the Judges will be assigned random models each round and be told to give a no more than 8 second Positive or Negative critique. Then I will just drag and drop them in, and taduh! Lightning fast episodes!

The opening will be much much shorter in each episode, instead of 45 seconds, and the Adeline and I have come up with a great concept instead of Rongi narrating the whole thing. x_x so less voice work for me, more Themed voice work from Adeline, and the Models will now give their subtiles during the Montage instead of during Judging. Judging will include a speech bubble for the talking judge and also I am thinking of displaying the picture in 3 ways on the screen.

|-------------|
|AAA| CCCC|
|-----| CCCC|
|BBB| CC(D)|
|-------------|
Box A will be the models picture small and stationary, B will be a close up of the models body scrolling up or down, C will be the picture scrolling left or right, and D will be where the judges speaking bubble pops up.

Thats the goal anyway!

All in all, I cant wait to get them out and I hope you like them!

I have a confession to make. I haven't finished the judging tables.. yet.
And, I don't see an email.

[EorzeasNTM]

I resent it to you. Check your spam folder! One of the youtube models are also having the problem where their email thinks I am a spammer. xD ; ;

If the judging table is as awesome as the judge's speech bubbles, I cannot wait to see ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. And Rongi's entrance is going to be amazinggggg. xD

So stuck on round 1... T_T I have an outfit picked for round 2 and I'm trying to find a premium location.

It doesn't help that I need to finish a big project for drawing, and finish a minor but tedious project for metalsmithing by Tuesday; along with refining a project each from sculpture and 3d design and finishing a 2/3rds done "slice of cake" stool in two class periods for sculpture. Oh yeah, and trying to pick out and record a dub for the redubbing competition by the 1st. XD So so so busy right now.

Were we able to put placeholder shots in the dropbox folders in case we don't get a better shot by the deadline?

[Tinsley]

yes you can replace shots up until deadline in the dropbox

[NozomiKei]

Yay! I thought so but I figured it was best to get clarification before assuming. Submitted what I hope are my final pics for Rounds 1 and 2.

[Bramble]

Oh. My. GOSH you guys!!! I know this is late but... I WON, I WON, I WOOOOON!!!!

When i first found out:


Then the disbelief and emotions:



Then the moment it went to my head:


Here is a suuuper rough sketch i did of Sylvie (my tablet is officially broke, so pen and paper for now) with her winning grin :3


Just want to thank everyone involved and apologise for not being more active. I've not been able to play the game in a lil while so was denied forum access again but i'm back (for now) and rooting for all the new (and seasoned) participants of the next forum and YT contests! I've been following the thread and I literally cannot wait to find out the themes and see all your screenies!
