George-Fashion Journalist
Julie Helson-Owner of 'Dreamz' Model Management
Michael Grange-Notified Fashion Photographer
George-Welcome to your first panel ladies, but before we get started how about I talk about your fabulous prizes? The winner of Make Me A Top Model will receive a fashion spread in ‘EL Magazine’ courtesy of the editor in chief Josh Kebano. And representation with Dreamz Model management! They will also win a campaign with Essence cosmetics! Now on to our wonderful judges, noted fashion photographer ‘Michael Grange’ and The owner of Dreamz Model Management, Miss ‘Julie Helson’. So let’s begin with Brenda:
Brenda-Hi everyone
George-So Brenda, personally I LOVE this photo! You look like a doll which is an image a lot of photographers want.
Michael-I agree George, your legs look lovely in this picture Brenda and I love how your eyes connect with the camera
Julie-This is a beautiful shot Brenda, I just wish your mouth wasn’t as tense but really well done!
George-Bryony, you’re next
Bryony-Hey
George-....I’m not loving your picture Bryony, you just hung there, basically the harness did all the work!
Michael-You’re lost in the background, as a Top Model you can’t fade away
Julie-I agree, this is not a good picture, do you really want to be here?
Bryony-Of course I do! I’m just used to being behind the camera
Julie-Well you need to start practicing
George-Candice, you’re up next
Candice-Hey guys!
Michael-You’re very cheery today
Candice-It’s my dog’s birthday!!!
Michael-....oh, well happy birthday to your dog
George- Picture wise, I see Christmas but I don’t see model. You relied too much on the outfit Candice
Julie-It’s unfortunate really because you have the girl next door looks, but it’s just not transferring onto film, you just look stiff and bored
Michael-Maybe she’s in need of a makeover?
George-Elina, the Russian beauty
Elina- Äîáðûé äåíü.
George-Is that hello?
Elina-It is!
George- ahhh! Now your picture Elina has me torn, you look absolutely stunning, but I don’t see you doing much
Michael-I see a lot here George! She looks beautiful and she’s so graceful just look at her left leg
Julie-Do you dance Elina?
Elina-I’ve done ballet for around 10 years
Julie-Well it’s paying off because I see a sexy cupid who looks like a model, well done!
George-Moving on, Lucy
Lucy-Hi everyone
George-You definitely had a hard costume to work with Lucy and I like this picture because you have perfect posture, however it just doesn’t read high fashion to me
Michael-The face is a little too cheesy for my liking
Julie-You need to know the difference between commercial and high fashion, I think you need to read some magazines
George-Can we see Marcia please
Marcia-hi
Julie-You don’t look too happy Marcia, what’s wrong?
Marcia-I just feel like I’ve been tricked out of a good shot this week
George-how?
Marcia-Well all of the other girls got really amazing costumes, and I got a short dress
Michael-It’s about you not the costume Marcia, a top model should be able to make anything look good
George-I really don’t like your picture Marcia, you look stiff and way too commercial
Julie-Above all else there’s no contact with the camera!
Michael- I expected more from you to be honest, during casting we saw a beautiful girl who was full of energy
George-Moving onto Marissa’s picture
Marissa-Good evening
George-The positioning of your legs is really edgy Marissa, and you coped well with being up in the air...but I don’t see angry/evil at all
Marissa-It was just hard for me to be like that
Julie-Modelling is all about acting Marissa, you have to look nice but it’s all in the face
Michael-I love how you merge with the background but don’t get lost, Bryony could learn some tips from you!
George-Martina’s up next, and who were you?
Martina-I was the peace fairy
Julie-First off I love how you twisted your body sideways to differ from the other girls!
George-I agree but it’s your left leg that’s annoying me, the way it’s bent doesn’t look natural
Michael-I think you have potential Martina; you just need to work on giving natural poses!
Martina-Thank-you
George-Mika our Asian Goddess
Mika-Ni Hao
George-Ni Hao, and you were the Queen Fairy in your photo shoot
Mika-I was
George-I love this shot Mika! The positioning of your legs is wonderful and you’re also selling the clothes!
Michael-I agree George, you already look like a model as your angles in this picture are perfect
Julie-Really well done Mika, I can see so much potential in you!
George-Little Rhianna from Texas!
Rhianna-Hey ya’ll
Michael-Wow you’re the spitting image of Candice!
Rhianna-Everyone keeps saying that!
George-I think a makeover will change that, as for your photo you definitely caught the light and it’s emphasising your perfect skin
Julie-You do look perfect in this picture and though it’s awkward I like the way your legs are contorted
Michael-I’m just not seeing anything in the face unfortunately...you’re a stunning girl who needs some mirror time
George-Sindra the space fairy is next
Julie-WOAH! That hair is way over the top
Michael-I agree, you look like a rock star, not a model
Sindra-Do you guys not like it?
George-Unfortunately not Sindra, but once again a little makeover will change our mind
Michael-About your photo, I didn’t know there was fairies in space but you look like one super cool space fairy!
Julie-Your eyes are captivating in this shot and your body looks great!
George-I do like this shot Sindra but I wish you’d have given us more variety
George-And finally we have Talia
Talia-Hey
George-When I first looked at this shot Talia I saw destruction and burning passion, out of all of the girls you got your fairy element perfected
Michael-Yeah you look stunning but you still look like you’re going to destroy everyone and everything.
Julie-You’re acting the part Talia but you’re not doing anything with your body
*After the judges deliberate it’s time to find out whose being eliminated*George-Ok ladies, the judges have deliberated and I will call out your names in an order of who we thought did the best to who did the worst. The first name I’m going to call is....
1.Brenda
2.Talia
3.Mika
4.Rhianna
5.Elina
6.Sindra
7.Marissa
8.Martina
9.Lucy
10.Candice
That means in the bottom two we have Bryony and Marcia. Bryony you evoked no emotion in your picture and you made no attempts to pose with your body. Marcia on the other hand, you looked stunning but the judges say your look is too commercial! You know the saying, you can make a high fashion girl commercial but you can't turn a commercial girl high fashion. So who stays? Click the question mark to find out!

Her picture was dull, but with a makeover I see potential.
