ANTM - PE - Challenge 5: Best In Show
« on: January 20, 2013, 01:27:14 AM »
Arena's Next Top Monster
Public Edition - Challenge 5
Best In Show ... aka dolls and their pets!

Kia ora, guys and ghouls!

I reckon the Monster High pets are undervalued. Most of them are really cool, yet I hardly ever see them in photos. So for this week's assignment, your models will be posing with their favorite animal friends. The shoot can take place indoors or out, light or dark ... just make sure that the model, his/her pet and their relationship are the main focus of the image. More specifically, I want to see some interaction between the model and their animal friend.

NB. Actual Monster High pets are preferred, but if you haven't got any, don't dispair! Just find a suitable substitute from some other toy line. A pony will do just fine!

You have until 10:30pm NZDT on Sunday, 27 January 2013 (4:30am EST / 9:30am GMT on Sunday, 27 January 2013) to submit your entry to me.

Here's Deuce with his two-tailed rat, Perseus, to show you how it's done:


Here are some more examples:

THE RULES

HOW IT WORKS
1. A photography challenge is posted.
The poster may or may not post an example photo.

2. Participants are given seven days to submit their best photo.
They must PM a single photo to the poster of the challenge before the deadline.

3. At the conclusion of the seven days, the poster will anonymously post all the entries in a public poll.
The public will be allowed four days to discuss the entries and vote.

4. At the conclusion of the four days, the participant with the most amount of votes will be determined the winner.
The winner will be allowed a max of three days to post the next challenge.
If the winner does not post the challenge within three days, the runner-up will be allowed to do so, and so on.

5. In the event that two participants tie for first place, they will determine the next challenge together.

6. Once the public poll has ended, the poster will reveal which photo belongs to which participant.


The Specifics

- You do not have to use the same doll for every challenge

- You do not need to participate in each challenge consecutively

- You may edit your photo with any sort of software you like

- You may use custom dolls and dolls of any gender

- You may use any backgrounds, props, or sets that you like

- We advise hosts to NOT participate in their own challenge round

(Whoever the winner of this challenge turns out to be, please post the Rules and Specifics at the bottom of the next challenge when you post it. Thanks!)



May the best ghoul (and their pet) win!

I have all my dolls' pets, but I'd love to use a pony! That sounds like a lot more fun!

Got it.


I just thought I'd add that I'm happy to help out with photography / photo editing tips, if anyone's interested. Just let me know if there's anything you want to know how to do or feel you could do better or something.

Well then, I had a shot on this subject (well, for one of my dolls without a pet) for a while.. and just had no motivation. This must be my motivation being shoved into my face telling me to get off my lazy butt! Will probably work on it tomorrow, since my fiance's off from 'work' (interning, so not.. a paying job /sob) since I need one of his toys and I don't touch his stuff without him closely supervising. I'm a bit of a klutz, whoops.
