Now Casting Models for Eorzea's Next Top Model (Cycle 3 and YouTube!)

[Tinsley]

Popping in as well to wish you all luck! As with Vahn, I will be a judge for Cycle 3.

Also, just to give a bit of help for the closeup picture of your character

Stand in front of a solid object like below


then swing your camera around and you can get a much closer zoom.


hope this helps

Thanks Tinsley. I think I'll retake that additional face shot then

This was my best picture, but the stupid PS4 SS icon got in the way, if it will hurt my chances please let me know.

Face Shot

[Kaiyoko]

For the face shot do you want a flat background so it's easier to edit out or are you using the background we give?

[EorzeasNTM]

Kaelah probably prefers an easier background to edit you out of! ^^;

Regarding the zoomed face shots!

These are so that I can provide banner images akin to this:


That being said, here is how I can get the best, most uniform image.
Tinsley is correct, you can get closer images using something to push the camera closer, however, I would like all models to have the same zoom.

So if you please~ :3 (For examples sake, look to Marik's & Kaya's. Both are great.)
1. Zoom camera as close to you as possible without using an object.
2. Take the picture in daylight.
3. Take the picture against a bright background which will contrast your character. (If you have brown hair don't stand in front of something brown, makes you harder to cut out.)
4. Shots must be head on.
5. To create a more uniform image, it helps if everyone has the same quality. If your machine can handle it without exploding, set graphics to max -just for the picture-.

Good luck all, and thankoo! I look forward to making the banners.
