Finale
Welcome guys to the finale, so I said I was going to cut this comp down but I hadn't realized that it was already finale time anyway. So yay it is here and we never lost out on any assignments. This assignment is going to be a 2 part finale with a longer deadline, so I hope that you won't mind this.
Part 1
Commitee
Throughout the year all students are required to participate in at least one of their schools committees. So whether you preferred designing yearbook, working on the paper, organizing prom, helping fund raise and help out charities or taking on the more authoritative roles as monitors and such for certain areas of the school, we would love to see what your get up to for it together.
This photo requires a setting to do with your committee whether a meeting for it or your couple participating let us see.
Requirements
◎ Both your Sims must be shown in the picture.
◎ Committee related
◎ Must be bodyshot
◎ Thin Black Border
Part 2
Prom fashion editorial
It is time for the exclusive senior prom and your couple have bought their outfits. I would like your couple wearing their prom clothing for a magazine worthy fashion editorial. Got it? so editorial wearing prom clothing.
Requirements
◎ Both sims in the shot
◎ Editorial posing together
◎ Prom clothing
◎ Anything from a waist down shot
◎ simple/plain background.
◎ Thin black border.
Due Date: 20th December (I hope two weeks is long enough but I would like them all in before Christmas when I know I will sure be busy again)

Ava with Rachel Courtland and Dev Saunders
Part 1
Literary Magazine Committee
Dev and Rachel had always loved to be a part of the school's annual Lit Mag. Well, Rachel, at least, with her passion for writing and design. Dev was mostly just there for Rachel, and come senior year, it became clear that publication just wasn't his calling. Every year, without fail, he'd managed to lose the submissions...thankfully, after the first year, Rachel made sure she had her own copies.
Part 2
Cyan with Daryl Thorne & Lurleen Kitchens
Part 1
Prom Committee
Daryl was not much of one for dances or dressing fancy, and ESPECIALLY not committees of any kind, since she really was a pretty anti-social butterfly. Lurleen, however, was always the opposite - she loved the idea of prom, and loved helping out, so behind her girlfriend's back volunteered them both for the committee organizing the upcoming prom. At first Daryl refused and didn't go to the meetings, but once they actually started working on decorating, much to Lurleen's surprise and joy, she showed up, ready and willing to actually help set up.
Part 2
Vid with Ethan Mont & Shawn Summers
Part 1
Yearbook Committee
Ethan and Shawn behind the scenes as usual in yearbook committee. With Shawn's artistic skills and Ethan's passion for photo taking, they make a great team. It's just too bad they tend to be a distraction for each other.
Part 2
We have finally reached the end and it is now time to reveal this cycle's winner!......

Well done vid on coming out on top this cycle! You have always been consistently great throughout this competition and certainly deserve this. Well done again.

Vid, once again you amaze me with the realisticness of your sets! I really love how there is people in the background doing other jobs but doesn’t distract the photo away from your couple! I really love the pose and how they are interacting both with each other and with the photo(meaning they look like they are doing their job –or in their case distracting- rather than just posing there.) You have blew me away again!

.5 away from a perfect score! You really hit it out of the park with this one. The set is, as always, perfection, and you incorperated so many things into it. I love the pose, and the slight tilt, and everything about this shot! The only thing I would recommend would be to change the cheerleading squad to darker colours, or more faded, as they are rather eye catching against the more dim sorroundings. AMAZING WORK!

Ahh I really love the background for this so much!dhsjkhf!... okay carrying on, I really like your styling and how it matches with the whole theme of things! Like the others Imma be nitpicky about the pose, it doesn’t feel coupley enough for me… I guess I just feel that proms all lovey dovey and they just sort of look a bit like bros here. Well done & good luck!

I love the black and white theme you having going on here Vid! The boys look amazing together! The pose is great, and styling is wonderful, and even though the background is rather busy, I quite like it! Very yearbook! Although, I am not very fond of the shadows, as they could have been blurred and smudged, and maybe even lightened a little. Also, a little smudging could've been used around the noses, but that is just me nitpicking! This is amazing! Good work!

Ava, I really love how cute this picture is!.. I love how Rachel looks all like “dev you done it again” and dev’s just like “my bad, what do you expect” but they still look lovingly at each other! I really love the styling of them two and the set is on point!

Beautiful, wonderful, amazing photo! I love this. At first I was confused on the posing, but now that I read the little story, I fully understand--and love--the choice you made to use it. The quality is killer. The set is amazing. I'm wowed.

Oh this is such a cute shot! I love the short story behind this shot, it’s quite cute. I really really like the set. You really gave it that classroom-ish feel to it. Every little detail is filled in and The poses are absolutely cute! I know how committees can be hard but Dev and Rachel make it look easy and fun. They look adorable in this shot. Good job.

Aw how cute do they two look together! I love rachels part of that pose however I wish dev wasn’t looking into the distance, maybe looking at the camera or Rachel would have been better! So yeah maybe some editing of his eyes or what not, but yeah that’s not really a big thing just a personal thing. I love the styling it’s very promy and fits in with the background and the theme of a tropical sunset prom. Well done and good luck!

Oh my Lord! This is absolutely stunning .-. I have no words tbh. I think the whole shot is pretty editorial and it looks like it should be in Seventeen magazine! I love the background and I love how her dress goes so nicely with the background. Rachel looks fantastic and Dev looks very handsome. The poses are cute, however, I wish Dev was looking at the camera. He’s looking at the side and it makes him look like he’s not interested :P But overall, amazing work! Really love this one (:

I'm really pleased with the chosen set this assignment! I've said it once and I will say it again, I love how both girls have a specific style that influences the photo each round--adore it. Although, I was not quite pleased wiht the pose this time around... Daryl looks less then thrilled to be there, ad I wish that the shot had incorperated them working on decorating.

Haha that is such a cute idea! I love it. Totally digging Daryl’s styling. She looks so hardcore and amazing! Not really a fan of Lur’s styling because she’s such a cutesy-girly girl and in my opinion that hair and dress doesn’t exactly fits her personality but no worries she still looks cute! I love those screaming girls in the background, that was a nice touch. The set looks a bit unfinished - it’s okay considering it’s under construction for prom. You did a good job giving it an unfinished look. Good job (:

Unfortunately for me I feel this picture lacked compared to your usual! I mean I like the set and the styling but it wasn’t wowing for me. Also the posing looks more like friends going to prom rather than partners. Well done however on a still good enough photo and good luck!

I really do like the background of this shot, even though it was slightly busy. It reminds me very much of a pathway to prom c: Also, I love the outfits both girls are sporting, although I was expecting Daryl to be wearing a pant suit as she isn't fond of dresses XD However, the poses are rather far from editorial, and I am not fond of the expressions,. Also, the dresses are clipping into eachother. Overall, great job!

Very cute! I love the whole thing! Cyan you did a great job here. The poses are adorable and this might sound weird but the poses describes both girls perfectly. It’s so weird seeing Daryl in a dress :P However, she looks stunning and so does Lurleen. That green dress really goes very nicely with Daryl’s red hair. The background is pretty cool too.(:

Just so everyone knows, I'm going to England for 2 weeks tomorrow so I'll be emailing my stuff to Ayana :D
Good luck everyone!
The rest of you this is due tonight, please try keep something to the gmt time zone, I understand some of your days end later but last time people were still handing in 12 hours later (I'm not even sure if there is a time zone like that) but yeah. So if there not in when I wake tomorrow (which is usually about midnight in America) then they will have a point deduction.
