PYRAMID CEREMONYElle: Hello ladies and welcome to this weeks pyramid ceremony. This week, you all shot gorgeous, high fashion beauty shots. Let's not lollygag and get straight to the point. The first girl on the pyramid is... (All of the image hosting sites that I normally use aren't working so there will be no actual pyramid this week. Just remember 4 on the bottom, then two, then two, then one)  Caroline T. I feel like you really struggled this week. Honestly, you have one of the best bodies, but when it comes to your face, I find it to be very sensitive to angles. In front of me, it tends to look a lot rounder than in photos and this week, many of your photos showed that. Here your bone structure looks lovely and I love the look in the eyes, but as a whole, the shot isn't memorable. I just find it kind of boring. The next girl on the pyramid is...  Liza. (Right) I think the shot is beautiful, but, like Caroline T., your photo doesn't jump out to me like many of the other girls' photos did. I think you worked with the makeup and delivered a shot that really shows off how beautiful your face is, honestly, I'd flip past it in a magazine. There isn't that star quality in this shot, Liza. You can do better. The next girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...  Caroline A. After two weeks on the top, you fell hard this week. It's a gorgeous photo, Caroline, don't get me wrong, but I think that is simply because you're gorgeous. It's not enough, Caroline. Your bone structure looks great, but the eyes could use a little more oomph. The shoulders do make the shot a little more tense than I would like to see, but overall, it's gorgeous, but it doesn't wow me. The last girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...  Klara. I was hoping that once you got out of the bottom row, you'd never reach it again, but unfortunately, here you are. I think this shot really had potential to be brilliant, but it just falls short because you are still learning your angles. Everything is great, except you are looking too high up with the eyes so I only see the whites mostly. Had you tilted your head up slightly, it would have been mind-blowing, but I have to judge the shot how it is, not on how it could be. The next girl is not on the bottom of the pyramid and is safe...  Frida. You got this shot on your first frame. It's gorgeous, Frida. I love how it almost looks like you don't know the monkey is there. Your jaw looks amazing, your skin looks luminescent, and your eyes look so sultry. The hand is perfection. Overall, the shot is just stunning, Frida, but the other girls just did slightly better. The next girl on the third row is...  Montana. Gorgeous. Simply stunning. It's a risk to do a profile beauty shot because usually the eye contact tells a story. It totally works here because I see a story through the eyes looking off into the distance. You really worked with the light to create interesting shadows and to allow your eyes to shine through. It's gorgeous photo, Montana. The first girl on the second level is...  Marcelina. You, like Frida, got this on your first shot. Amazing. Those eyes are just so piercing and it's even more amazing because it is in black and white. You really worked your angles and your look to really bring off the alienesque vibe that you have. I don't have much else to say other than amazing job, Marcelina. The final girl who has not reached the top of the pyramid is...  Tahnee. This is absolutely mesmerizing. That gust of wind came at the perfect time and you were ready for it. Your eyes are soooo piercing. It's ridiculous. Your face looks divine and you look like the desert queen. I love how I feel like if we stripped away the makeup and hair, it would still be a fierce shot. This is amazing, Tahnee. And that means that...  Karlie, you're on the top of the pyramid. From facing elimination, to being able to administer it. This shot superior, Karlie. Those eyes, those eyes, those eyes. They draw me in and sear into my soul. I could seriously see this on the cover of a magazine tomorrow. Brilliant job. And by taking the best shot this week. You get to decide which two girls, Caroline T., Liza, Caroline A., or Klara are nominated for elimination. Step outside and think for a little bit and when I call you back, you can deliver the news. yoyoyo, just pm me the two girls you want to nominate and a brief explanation. |

ELIMINATIONElle: Welcome back to the judging room everyone. As you know, it is that time of week where someone needs to go home. Frida, Montana, Marcelina, and Tahnee, your positions on the pyramid make you safe for another week. Congratulations, you may all leave the judging room. *they all leave* Karlie, I determined that your photo was the best this week and gave you the privilege to choose two girls from the bottom row to nominate for elimination: Caroline T, Liza, Caroline A, and Klara. So come up here and deliver the news. Karlie: I have decided to nominate both Caroline A. and T. *Klara and Liza breathe sighs of relief* Caroline A.- I think it's pretty obvious why I decided to nominate you; you've been at the top of the pyramid the last two weeks and you nominated me last week. It's obvious you're playing to win and I'm just giving you some friendly obstacles. Caroline T.- Well you've been at the bottom a lot, but you're still one of the biggest competitors, unfortunately for you, I think you've just run into some bad luck, seeing as how you haven't done to poorly yet. But you were nominated sheerly because I think you're the only one I think would give Caroline A. a run for her money. Elle: Thank you, Karlie. Klara, Liza. Karlie has saved you this week so you three may leave the judging area. *They leave* Caroline A. Caroline T. One of you is about to be eliminated from the competition. It's very sad for me to see both of you here because you are two of the girls who probably have the most supermodel potential. Caroline A. you've dominated the past few weeks, but this week you were out-shined and your photo was lackluster. Are you losing that spark? Caroline T. while you've generally been in the bottom row, you've still taken some amazing photos. The issue is that other girls consistently perform better than you causing you to fall into the bottom. That was the case this week. So who stays? Caroline A. You've consistently been stronger than Caroline T. so you deserve to survive this week. Congratulations. You're still in the running towards Taking it To The Top. *hugs Caroline T.* I think that Karlie put it perfectly when she said you ran into some bad luck. You were put in the bottom two with one of the strongest girls in the competition and even though you've taken beautiful photos, hers have been stronger. You definitely have a career ahead of you and I want you to go out there and prove me wrong. I'm sorry, but you didn't Take It To The Top. Goodbye and good luck. |

*the girls walk into the studio to see racks on racks of clothing*
Elle: Hello ladies. So far, the majority of the shoots have been pretty high fashion, so this week we wanted to change it up. This week, you will be working with an actual client: JC Penney. You will be doing a catalog shoot for their fall catalog. Though you may not make a name for yourself by posing in catalogs, it's always a good back up to make some money so it's a great skill to have. We want to see cute, fun, happy photos from you girls this week. Good luck!

Me: I'm really busy with school now, so from now on, I'm not going to make the pyramid. I'll just be doing it how I did it last week. This week, we are cutting down to three rows on the pyramid. 4 girls on the bottom, three girls in the middle, one girl on top.

PYRAMID CEREMONYElle: Hello ladies and welcome back to another pyramid ceremony. I have a special announcement for this week. With the numbers dwindling so much, I've decided to cut the pyramid down to just three rows. There will be four girls in the bottom row, three in the middle, and one on top. This means that this week, half of you will be up for elimination. Next week, more than half of you will be up for elimination. It's imperative that you do your best to stay out of that bottom row from now on because anyone could go. This week you shot catalog photos for JCPenney, so let's find out the results. The first girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...  Klara. You didn't necessarily do bad this week. I actually don't hate this shot. It just really isn't catalog enough. And when it isn't as catalog, you need to play up the commercial look and you didn't do that to compensate. You are just such a gorgeous girl and you have so much potential, but I'm honestly wondering if you're the noun of a model, but you aren't the verb. The next girl on the bottom row of the pyramid is...  Tahnee. I'm really shocked to see you here actually. Of all the girls, I'd say you have the most commercial look, but you really struggled this week. It's not a bad shot, but it isn't as great as it could have been. There is no connection with the camera and it looks more like something I'd see in an editorial in Elle as opposed to a catalog of a department store. You don't look in control of your body and overall, it's just not a great shot, Tahnee. The next girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...  Liza. The main issue I have with this shot is that you look much older than you really are. You look like a mom. It's very mature. As a shot, it would totally work for JCPenney because they use all ages in their catalogs, but I'd prefer you look your age. You do look beautiful, but I just wish there was a little more youth there. The last girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...  Montana. You had a better shot in your film, but it was very summer. This shoot was for a fall/winter catalog, so the shot was unusable. You do look great in this however. The smile looks genuine, the pose is cute, the clothes look great on you. Now if all those things work, why are you in the bottom row? It's because the shot doesn't stand out and the other girls whom have yet to be called stood out and I remembered their shots. Thanks, Montana. The first girl on the middle row who is safe this week is...  Marcelina. This is like a better version of Tahnee's photo. I love the movement because you look in control of it. It doesn't look pedestrian. Your body looks great in the clothes and I love the spark in your eyes. I really wasn't expecting this from you since your look is much more high fashion than many of the girls here, so it was a pleasant surprise to see you excel this week. The next girl in the middle of the pyramid is...  Caroline. This is fantastic. You look ten feet tall and your legs are seven feet tall. They go on for days. You didn't go completely commercial which works when the whole shot has a catalog feel. JCPenney has done some ads recently that aren't as bubbly, so this works because it has the catalog feel. The clothes looks amazing on you and this shot is very usable. Great job. The last girl on the middle row, just barely missing getting the top shot is...  Frida. Gorgeous. I'm just mesmerized by your face. You look so stunning. It's just commercial enough that it works for the client, but you don't look like some random catalog model: You look like a working model doing a catalog. If that makes any sense. You sell the clothes amazingly by doing the whole less-is-more thing and it totally works. You were great this week, Frida. And that leaves...  Karlie on the top of the pyramid! That's two weeks in a row! Karlie, you killed everyone this week. You gave so much variety in your posing and expressions and it totally worked for the shoot. I love this photo of you. You went crazy with the expression, but it's so cute and so JCPenney. The pose is cute and I love the movement in the scarf. I could see this as the cover of the catalog when it comes in the mail. Great job, Karlie. So, Karlie, as the top girl once again, you have to nominate two girls for elimination from the bottom row. This week, you can choose from Klara, Tahnee, Liza, and Montana. I'll give you some time and when I call you back, you will deliver your decision. Good luck. Me: yoyoyo, you know the drill. |

ELIMINATIONElle: Welcome back ladies. It is time for the toughest part of each week where we must say goodbye to another girl. We are cutting down in numbers and each photo you take could be the reason you go home, so there is no room for error. Marcelina, Caroline, and Frida, your scores have qualified you for the next round of competition. You may leave the judging room. Klara, Tahnee, Liza, and Montana, you four have fallen to the bottom row and two of you are about to be put up for elimination. The girl that will determine that is the girl on the top of the pyramid this week, Karlie. Karlie, come up here and deliver the news. Karlie: I decided to nominate Montana and Tahnee for elimination. *Liza and Klara look relieved* I've essentially nominated you two for the same reason; both of you have been doing pretty well and are my biggest competition out of the girls in the bottom row. Being weak at any point may lead to your downfall and I hope this teaches whichever one of you survives to fight much harder. If I win I want to win knowing I beat the best. I wish I didn't have to nominate you two but I dont want to miss an opportunity I might later regret not taking. Elle: Thank you Karlie. Liza, Klara, Karlie has saved you both and all three of you may now leave the judging area. *they leave* Elle: I'm sad that both of you are here because I feel like you two have been stronger than some of the other girls who have made it through this week. You don't deserve this, but Karlie is playing the game and I see her logic accept for the fact that she said she wanted to win by beating the best. When she said that, I thought she'd eliminate the weaker girls, not the stronger ones. Well, we can't critique Karlie's logic because the sad-but-true fact is that you are both standing here. You've both continually taken beautiful photos and basically have equal history here. Montana, you have more potential as a high fashion model than Tahnee, but Tahnee, your photos have been slightly stronger than Montana's each week except for a few times. It's a very hard decision, but... Tahnee. You're in. It was very difficult, but your performances just barely edged out Montana. Congratulations, you still have the opportunity to Take It To The Top. *hugs Montana* I'm really sad to see you go so early because you have taken some beautiful photographs. I do not doubt that I'll see you when I'm at a fashion show or flipping through a magazine. You have a lot of potential to go far, Montana, but I'm sorry, you did not Take It To The Top. Goodbye and good luck. |
