Elimination 7 and Task 8!

....









This has been a really really sad week. There were only 4 girls who completed the task. Meaning that Denise (ntenia) and Paulina (Pauo-Watson) are automatically eliminated. Paulina personally told me that she has to leave the competition because of  personal issues, but Denise? I gave you an extension! That's why, again(!!!!!!!) it took so long to announce the winner and the one(s) who get eliminated. It's not the first time I give an extension but I hope it will be the last time for this cycle because everything just takes soo long and I know how it feels to wait so long, since I am in modeling comps myself.
So, moving on to you personal evaluation, in order from best to worst:

At first something in general: Rounding off the edges of your joints is something you can all work on. It can take away the realism and that's not what we want as Stardoll.model! :). Also: It was sooooo hard for us to decide who gets which place because we only have the crème de la crème in this competition!

Elle: Yet again you won a task! Congrats to you my dear. You really captured the word 'action' in your scenery and it looked like you were actually moving. You are impressing us from week to week! (Loved the head tilt ;P)

Marte: Such a pity that Stardoll didn't let you put more into your scenery! We can just imagine how amazing it could have been! Pose and styling as always superb! I actually didn't thought that you can grow as much as the others because you started on top, but the body tilt, oh my! That was beautiful.

Ioana: This was just as good as the others. The styling, the curtains, your expression, you think about every little detail! It all has a story and you put the pieces together in an amazing way! This week, I have to admit that it was just my taste which put you at the 3rd place. But I want you to stay true to yourself, because that was just a minor detail!

Isabelle. I loved your inspiration and the simple background was by far my favorite, the hair and make up as well! I know your problems with putting the clothes on your doll. A tip: Place the clothes before hiding the body parts, that makes it so much more easy, trust me! Also, your joints tend to look flat and unrealistic, place the tiles more carefully and you will grow tremendously!

So, since no one is going home this week, I am going to announce the next task right now :). Girls, this is going to show us who has what it takes to win this cycle. After this task there is only one more, before the final two are competing against each other! A real modeling job is waiting for you! You will be in Choicemagazine along with this cycle's winner of MelsModels! Isn't this amazing? I know... BUT not only the winner should get the chance to work as a real model in the Stardoll-modeling industry! So talking about modeling modeling and modeling I have a little surprise for you. And guess what?! It will be about modeling! The winner of this weeks task will get the opportunity to rock the runway of Linus Leonardsson's (Dog_boy96) next Kharma collection, which will be seen at next years StardollFashionWeek! Is this good or what?(To Marte: I know that you are in the RTW collection. If you win you will also be walking in the couture collection ;] )

So, to make it a bit tougher this week, you will have to do a two part task!

First Part: Hello Mister!

You have to do a scenery with another model. But not just any model! It has to be a male model! E. g. You could use Linus himself, if you find him ;). We want you to interact with the other model. But interacting doesn't mean touching. There should be a connection we need to feel while looking at your scenery. I know that some of you already have experienced to do that kind of scenery, that's why the others have to bring their A level this time! Make it look like an editorial.

Second Part: Around The World.

For this part I was inspired by Marion Cotillards Dior handbag ad. There were 4 different cities she portrayed and you are also going to portray 4 different cities. It doesn't have to be a bag-ad or any kind of ad, because it's very hard to portray a city. So this time it would be good, to think about a story behind your scenery. Be creative and innovative! You don't have to show the city, but show it's vibe or typical things through styling and accessories.

Here are the pics of the Dior ad:

 London:


New York:


Paris:


Shanghai:

Just to get a few ideas :). Of course it isn't important in which order you do the task and there will be only one who has to leave the competition!

Your assignments:
Ioana: Moscow
Elle: Paris
Marte: Milano
Isabelle: Shanghai

If you have any question about the task, please ask me! Of course I will give you more time for this task.


DEADLINE: Saturday April 30th 2011


Good luck and have fun! :)


Love, Melinda
