Assignment 8: Fantasy Couture
Finale! So this week, I want to see a fantasy photo! This must be a super high fashion photo with a detailed outfit and background. Your model should look stunning and fantastical, and the entire photo should give an ethereal vibe. Fantasy can mean mythical creatures, magical styling, and pretty much anything your imagination can create! I can't wait to see what you two come up with!
Requirements
Fantasy setting and styling
Detailed set
High fashion styling
Fantasy elements
Full Bodyshot
Example Photo:
September 26, 12 am EST
Single Elimination Round
Scoring for this competition will use the rubric below to rank each photo. The competitor who's photo comes in last will be eliminated, unless there is a drop or no show.
Scoring Rubric
Quality /5
Fashion appeal /15
Composition /10
Creativity /10
Requirements /5
Judge's choice /5
Total /50
Scoring Information:
Quality- Your score for quality is partly about graphics. I know some users don't have the best graphics cards/computers, and the we will take that into account, but things like lighting, in-game settings and light editing can make a world of difference. Quality isn't just about graphics, though, it also is about effort. Does your photo look thrown together, or thought out?
Fashion appeal- Fashion appeal is the largest part of the scoring rubric, because this is a fashion comp. Even assignments like fantasy should look like they belong in a magazine. Fashion appeal includes your model's pose, styling, and outfit.
Composition- Photo composition includes setting, lighting, and the overall appearance. Is everything in your photo off to one side? Is your background cohesive? These are the types of things judges will look at when giving you your composition score.
Creativity- Is your photo unique and outside of the box? The assignments only give what is required, the rest is up to you. So adding something extra to your photo will really boost your creativity score. Creativity applies to every aspect of your photo. This means your styling, setting, and overall idea will be part of the creativity score.
Requirements- Requirements don't need much explaining. They are listed clearly in the assignment, so follow them! They will usually be pretty simple, so following them will hopefully not be an issue.
Judge's choice- This will be an extra few points that will reflect the judges' basic opinions of the your photo. You obviously can't know everything about the judges' personal tastes, so to score highly here, just do your best to add that extra something to your photo.

O_O it's the results. Of the finale.
No pressure.
Any-who, I have had so much fun hosting this competition, and Clover and Ava, you have been great competitors, as have the rest of the original contestants. It was a close round, and both photos were beautiful.
So let's find out who won!

Ava, I cannot believe how much you've improved throughout this competition. This is a gorgeous photo. That dress is so pretty, and it looks great on Isabella. An ice fairy was such a creative route for this assignment, and you executed it perfectly. My only complaint is the hair, it makes her head look huge and it's sort of an awkward style. Otherwise this is such beautiful photo. You have come so far since the first assignment, and I'm glad you finished with such a stunning photo. Amazing job!

Well, well, well, What a Fantastic Photo! I love Ava here, her dress is very Fashionable yet Fantastical at the same time. The pose you chose really flatters the dress and the gorgeous body of Ava, she really shines here. Her hair is another great point to mention here too, She really does look stunning. My only thing here is the set, although somewhat detailed, It is a bit washed out with all the color white in everything, but is detailed enough to be a ‘detailed set’, however it would have been nice to see you add some more elements to it. I think ‘Fairy’ was a good choice for your Fantasy Elements requirement; she looks adorable as a winter/snow/ice fairy. You might have gone a bit over-kill with the sparkles though, maybe erase some of the ones that were on top of Ava to give them the appearance they were circling her, rather than on top of her. I absolutely love this photo, Congrats, it’s one to really be proud of!
2nd Place

Lissie probably looks the best she ever has in this competition. Really, she is stunning. Even though that old cazy hair is pretty awful quality, the headdress helps. And that pose! Where did you get it, it's gorgeous! I have really no complaints here, your styling and the body markings are perfect, the setting is great, and the whole photo has an awesome, enchanting feel. I'm so glad you were able to complete this competition, your photos every week have been beautiful, and you have accomplished so much. Awesome finale photo!

I love all the colors, and the earthy vibe here! I have this dress, and from experience, it is hard to use, but I think you did well in choosing a pose that worked with it rather than against it. I think the setting is ok, although the background is detailed, I think you might have been able to use it better, with a different pose interacting with the setting, or some creative use of objects or something to fill some of the empty space around Lissie. But even with the styling of your model and the background, nothing really screams fantasy, it is mildly Fantastical, but I think for the finale it should have been over the top and clearly fantasy. Also you need to really watch the edges of you model, as you have been missing some of the choppy-ness left over from cutting out, her left arm and the bottom of the legs really show it. But I must say, the colors you chose are enchanting, it was a beautiful shade of red/pink and it really goes well with the green, and this is a lovely photo, Lissie rocks everything you put on her!
Please reserve me. Will be using my favourite model this. :P
