Jac: *Confessional* Welp, by the critiques, I'm going home and its absolute bullshit. The only girl who got an arguably worse critique than me is Catherine and GOD FORBID Queen Catherine messes up. It just gets glossed over. I'm the only one that consistently picked apart for little things. But Liya took it to a whole nother level this week. It's like she's trying to come up with an excuse to eliminate me. I can hear exactly what she is going to say. *she pulls out a picture of Liya with the mouth cut out and puts it over her face and begins speaking in her Liya imitation voice that sounds like a whiny bitch and nothing like Liya* jac, you've consistently been a strong contender week after week, but all the other girls have stood out and you just got a first fallout last week. Catherine, you're a goddess and don't have to worry about anything because the ending has already been written and you are going to win. *takes the photo away and speaks normally* Add a few big words I don't ever understand like the word "languid" or something and then my impression is exact. See ya hoes.

JUDGINGJessicaImpressive - Wow, I barely recognize you here! I really want to commend you on that actually, because this week you were the only girl to actually step outside her comfort zone and produce something I didn't expect and haven't seen before. I like the drama and power of this shot, you're really glaring down the barrel of the camera and giving a lot of tension in your expression, and I also like how edgy and weird you look since I'm used to you being so pretty. I would have liked more neck though and your eyes could use more energy, but overall I think you did well and I appreciate you taking a risk. Catherine: *looking at jessica's photo* *thinking* *thinking* WAIT A MINUTE!! THAT IS NOT HER!! THAT IS CHEATING That is Anabella Barber, The Runner Up of Modeling Academy. I knew it. I knew it! Unfair.. Jac: CALM DOWN GIRL.  --- LOL, just a role play. But honestly that is not Jessica. I know that cover of Anabella Barber  |

Catherine: Looking back, I think i did the worst. There's a 70% chance that i'll be going home this week. The other 30% is my potential, consistency and overall performance on this competition. I still have faith on myself. I hope its not ends here. Please philippines, be nice to me.

Oh, well then chacha can just use this instead. Okay, well, thanks for clearing that up and sorting it out everybody! Luckily I didn't have enough time for eliminations last night so none of the outcomes were affected, so I edited Jessica's critique and re-scored the new photo. Eliminations are coming up now! |

ELIMINATION Liya: Hello lovely ladies, and welcome to your final elimination before the finale! This week we came to the Philippines where you had a double shoot; first you shot a sexy beach editorial for GQ, and then you went back to the studio where you had one frame to impress me. Overall the results were strong per usual this week, and GQ was impressed enough to put all 4 of you into their spread, even the eliminee. Now, this week has the toughest elimination so far this cycle and perhaps in the history of the competition, but at least the first call-out was clear. So, the first girl entering the finale shall be...  ABBEY LEE! You picked the perfect week to step your game back up, Abbey Lee! Congratulations, you are the in the finale! The next model joining Abbey Lee in the finale will be... JESSICA! Congratulations Jessica, you also stepped your game back up this week and impressed me enough to earn a spot in the finale! Will Catherine and Jac please step forward? This is such a difficult bottom two, perhaps the most difficult in the history of this competition because both of you have such strong histories and so much potential and talent. Catherine, this week you were the worst in both assignments. Neither of your shots were bad, your GQ one was actually quite good in fact, but they paled in comparison to the other girls. You do have four first call-outs to back you up, but this is also your third time at the bottom so your inconsistency is worrisome. Jac, you are nothing if not consistent; I don't think you've ever been called outside of the top half, and you have booked every client we've had so far except one. However, even though you have been near the top each week, you have struggled to reach the very top and with so few girls left, the top and the bottom are so close together that it has caught up with you. So, after that long-winded speech, who will be staying?  JAC! You were actually the frontrunner in terms of scores going into this week and had a much stronger performance than Catherine's, so you will be joining Abbey Lee and Jessica in the finale. Congratulations! *tears up as she hugs Catherine* Catherine, I am so sorry to see you go, but I am sure you have such a bright future ahead of you. This has been our strongest and closest final four in the history of the competition, so nobody was safe this week and everybody else performed while you seemed to crack under the pressure. You can definitely be a star though, so go out there and make me proud without the prizes. Goodbye, and good luck. [/center] |

FINAL ASSIGNMENTS*the final three exit the elimination room, surprised by who isn't joining them, to find a limo waiting for them which brings them to the airport once again* *they board another short flight and get off at another unfamiliar airport where Liya is waiting to greet them* Liya: Hello lovely ladies, and congratulations on making it to the finale! You have a very busy and fast-paced final week ahead of you, so of course I had to bring you to the bustling and fast-paced city of... TOKYO, JAPAN!!! *the girls scream and cheer* Yes, in case you didn't manage to guess when you shot your Vogue Japan covers at the onslaught of this competition, Tokyo is your end destination where you will perform your four finale tasks, which are as follows: 1. Print ad for Shiseido cosmetics: Shiseido is Japan's biggest cosmetics company and one of the leading brands in the world, so this is a huge deal. Their ads are very refined and modern, though they vary between more edgy and quirky or soft and natural, so you can go for any of those styles and work any product in their line. 2. Editorial for Vogue Japan: You all already shot your covers in casting, so this week it is time for you to shoot your accompanying 4-page editorial! The theme is completely up to you as long as it fits the Vogue Japan aesthetic, and while the four photos should be cohesive amongst each other, it does NOT have to correlate with your cover because the winner will have a separate photoshoot to correlate with that after the competition is over. 3. Runway show for Kenzo: This Paris-based fashion house actually had its origin here in Japan by Japanese designer Kenzo Takada, and he has decided to come back to his roots to put on a fashion show in Tokyo fashion week which you will walk in! His designs tend to be bold, dramatic, and colorful, often featuring unique prints and patterns, and he likes to see confidence and elegance on the runway. (You can submit photos, gifs, or videos) 4. Print ads for Kenzo: Then, after the runway show you will be shooting a subsequent ad campaign for Kenzo! His latest campaigns have tended to be quirky, colorful, artistic, and dynamic, although he has also been known to be inspired by nature and go for more serene, evocative ads like when I modeled for him. Good luck! |

I just remembered that Ash already pm'ed her tasks to me, so I have started the critiques and scoring for the finale but I won't have enough time to finish them right now, but hopefully I'll be able to post the finale later tonight around midnight or so!

FINALE JUDGING: PART 1Liya: Hello ladies, and welcome to the first part of your final judging! This week you had many tasks so the panel is going to be divided into two parts; first I will critique your Shiseido ads as well as the Kenzo ads and runway show, and then second I will critique your Vogue Japan editorials. I have very high expectations this week since these are your last tasks, so let's hope you impressed. Now, let's get started! ShiseidoAbbey Lee - Dang Abbey Lee, this is STUNNING. You look so incredibly gorgeous here, all of your features just look amazing...if this makeup could make me look like that, then I would totally buy it. You're selling everything from the lipcolor to the mascara to the blush, and you really just look so flawless. Your eyes are very beautiful and calm yet still captivating, and overall I'm just really impressed by this shot. I don't think this quite screams Shiseido though; my mind would probably go to L'Oreal or Maybelline first, but I definitely do think it fits their aesthetic well enough to work. Jac - You gave me so much to choose from this week, your film was very strong and though there were some photos that worked much better than others, all of the shots were good. What I love most about this shot is the emphasis on the product; I know that the lighting helps a lot, but either way you really really do sell the lipcolor and nail polish. Your skin also looks very nice and even though your eye is shadowed, it still has power and the covered eye adds to the sense of mystery being conveyed here. I could definitely see Shiseido using this. Jessica - Your film went two ways this week; lively but unrefined, and refined but unlively, whereas I was looking for a balance of both, though this one is close to that balance at least. This shot is very icy in a good way, which is something I didn’t expect from you. Your eyes are so very beautiful in this shot, as is your skin, and your lips really stand out here with that deep red as well. I wish you had turned toward the light a little more though because the shadow is enveloping you more than I would like, and I do think that there is a certain spark missing to make me say wow, but overall I do think that this is a good shot that works for the brand. Kenzo Runway Abbey Lee - You did a good job on the runway, definitely fitting for a Kenzo show, though you didn't particularly stand out. You did have a lot of poise and elegance, and a nice subtle confidence in both your posture and expression which I liked, but overall your walk was a bit lacking in energy. Jac - You did very well on the runway, though not quite spectacularly. You had a lot of power and confidence in your face and your stride, and I love how you set your pace to the rhythym of the music. I do think that it came off as slightly robotic though, so you would have benefited from a little less tension and speed. Jessica - You were very average on the runway to be honest. You weren’t great but you certainly weren’t bad, you were just kinda there. You walked with a good amount of poise and grace and the outfit looked good on you, but there was a certain presence lacking in your face and power lacking in your stride. Kenzo AdAbbey Lee - I really don't understand what you were thinking with this shoot because you failed to produce a usable frame. This shot is very cute and quirky and whimsical so it almost fits the aesthetic in that sense, but it has none of the colorfulness or strikingness or dynamic energy that is associated with Kenzo. It's a good shot for sure, but it's just not right for the client. Jac - I was rather disappointed going through your film for this Jac, you didn’t seem to quite hit the mark for what was wanted and most of what you tried came across as very contrived and unnatural. You lucked into this shot though, it fits Kenzo pretty well and actually reminds me of last year’s campaign featuring Xiao Wen Ju. You brought a lot of quirkiness with the expression and posing which was great, and I like how you are peeking out from behind the bag which you sell quite well by the way. Normally I might want your eyes a little less wide but it works for something quirky like this, though an open mouth might have worked better with it and less tension overall would have been better as well because it is kinda stiff. Jessica - You gave me much more to chose from in this shoot thankfully, though I kept on gravitating toward this shot. It reminds me a little of one of my own ads for them actually with the dry setting, flowy styling, and the emotion you’re conjuring up. I love the sense of longing you brought, you’re really evoking with that expression and you connect so well with something in the distance as opposed to just squinting like the model next to you. And speaking of the extra, you totally outshine her here without ruining the cohesiveness of the shot though because you two look like twins, except as I said you look much better. One of my favorite parts of this shot is your profile though; I haven’t really seen you in full profile like this yet and it’s almost like you’re a totally different model, you become much quirkier and edgier than when straight-on. |
