Cycle 5 Opening video + 5th Challenge

Hey guys!
I have good news, the Cycle 5 opening video is finished. I already wanted to post this yesterday but I couldn't get to my computer (long story, don't want to waste time by telling you this).
So, for the opener I decided to do something different - namely to feature everybody of the Top 12 (even the eliminated ones). Oh and I also decided to change the theme song. Cycle 5's new theme song is "Move In The Right Direction" by Gossip. Hope you'll like it! :)



Alright ladies, only one more month until the Finale show. 8 contestants are left and it's time for the next challenge. This time, you'll have to do two tasks. The first one will be a photoshoot, the second one a catwalk task. Oh my, I can't believe we haven't done a catwalk task yet!! O.e

This week is all about crazy. We want to see your crazy side, your creativity and of course amazing outfits and looks. Okay, this is what you have to do...

Circus Photoshoot - Yeah, this week we're doing an editorial photoshoot in the circus manege. Remember the theme song of Cycle 4? That was Britney Spears - Circus. I don't know if you've ever seen the music video but this is what the photoshoot is based on, though there aren't any rules what the photo should contain. You could be the only person in the spotlight, you could be an artist on the trapeze or you could be surrounded by a big crew and animals. Just let your creativity flow and think of something amazing, something sexy, something crazy! Maybe these pictures are an inspiration for you:






Crazy Couture catwalk - Okay, now you might think that I am crazy because the first catwalk task in this cycle is already such a big challenge. But first let me explain it...


High fashion - on the one hand we've got Haute Couture, gorgeous elegant dresses that you could die for; on the other hand there are also extreme and complicated dresses, if you can even call them dresses which you would never wear out on the streets. Those dresses are more like costumes, they are mainly used for editorial photoshoots and not meant for common sale. Couture shows are always a pompously staged as they represent the designer's creativity, talent and style.
And that's what will be your task! First you have to create an impressive outfit. Don't forget about the make-up because on every couture fashion show the models have an extravagant make-up. And then you have to present that outfit on the catwalk. Don't be afraid of stepping out of your comfort zone and try some daring poses. These images might inspire you...









UPDATE!!! 
DEADLINE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6

If you have any questions, then please ask me. Good luck!
xoxo Rafael

Question: are both graphics or could one be a scenery.... or what???

I'm always quite confused about this. You never really specify. You just give us this photo idea and say 'go'!

I'm quite new at this so sorry if I misunderstand. :/

Rafael/Rafi101 said...

Oh sorry I forgot to mention that.
Well, it's actually up to you. It doesn't have to be a scenery or a whole graphic. If you are more practiced at making sceneries, then do so.
You can of course use a graphic program, too.
Whatever you feel more comfortable about. Hope this helps you ;)

Hi, I have to tell, that I'm away for all the weekend (incl. Friday) is it okay, If I hand in this task 2-3 days later, because I think I won't be able to finish this task in only one day... yours, Nora

Rafael/Rafi101 said...

@Nora: Sure, I think that will be okay as we'll need 2-3 days for judging anyway. Just be sure to enter your tasks as soons as possible ;)

Flowerpin said...

@Rafael/Rafi101 Thanks, that helps. Now I know what to do. I am actually going to take my time and do a real graphic. You have given me finally enough time to get myself a decent entry! :D I'm excited about it too.

ExtvaganceSD said...

To my entrys:
- circus-shoot: I wanted to create a fierce looking, crazy but also fashionable and couture circus-look, and used the studded headpiece.
- Haute Couture: Here I created a black and white, little minimalistic dress with different patterns and materials... I didn't overdose the makeup, because I want to focus on the dress and the hairstyle
