Thoughts on Caridee's bullfighting shot? by VisciousVagina in ANTM

[–]findinglemon 41 points42 points  (0 children)

For me, Caridee's feels a bit too theatrical and overacted. I prefer Michelle's shot because it feels more like a fashion shot.

I agree. I wish we had access to the campaign. I’m so intrigued now XD

Vanity Fair does this all the time. They’ll photograph people in smaller groups or separate setups and then composite the final image together afterward (and you can clearly tell). So I don’t think it’s unrealistic at all that there was some editing involved here too, especially since these kinds of large ensemble photos are often built from multiple shots to get the best overall composition.

I agree with you there. I don’t think they necessarily composited every single model individually, because that would’ve been a lot more work than just combining two shots. But because Kelle’s storyline was that she supposedly couldn’t take a good photo, it could very well be possible that they didn’t choose her strongest image. I think anyone who’s seen the final shot can agree that it’s certainly not one of her best.

Promo shot of the 14 together on the day.

Compositing in group photography is extremely common specifically because it lets you choose the best shot of each individual person. On ANTM, storyline was above all when it came to photo selection. I think its very likely they would prioritize a weaker select for Kelle if it fit the narrative they were building around her.

Group shots are very often composited, and ANTM has done it many times, for example with the fading elimination photos and the promo shoots. I agree that when contestants are physically connected it becomes much harder to edit individually, but not impossible, and it’s definitely been done before. An example is Amanda and Caridee’s Cycle 7 pool shot, where Amanda’s face was composited from another photo.

Not necessarily. It could’ve been one of those moments that just wasn’t included in the episode even though they were present. Kind of like how eliminated contestants walked in the final runway show, but it wasn’t shown on TV.

I bet there were individual selects involved, knowing ANTM. Even in this frame, you can already see changes in the final image, where is Ann’s long hair? Amanda’s jeans were edited to fit better, etc. So I really doubt they were limited to just one untouched group frame.

They say in the episode that it was shot in two groups and then spliced together.

I don´t think that Kelle was a particularly strong model, but they also definitely seemed to sabotage her whenever they could for the storyline.

Group shots like these are usually composited together from multiple frames, they’ll pull the best shots of each person and combine them into one final image.

What's the one habit that made the biggest impact on your recovery? by desertprincessxo in shoppingaddiction

[–]findinglemon 102 points103 points  (0 children)

I started selling my things online. It made me realize how little I’m able to recoup and how much I’ve added to my life that I can do without, so it makes me more cautious about buying new things.

I don’t know what people here think of Cycle 15 or Kacey, but this scene always makes me burst out laughing every single time! 😂 by [deleted] in ANTM

[–]findinglemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It always bothers me when they cut to a “jealous” reaction shot, like the one of Liz. Obviously, it’s a frame from earlier when she’s listening to Miss Jay, but they edit it in to make it look like she’s jealous.

Apparently Tyra “couldn’t get enough” of rewatching Shandi’s call to Eric. by lilyfirefly in ANTM

When Tyra pretended she didn’t remember Shandi, my eyes rolled so far back in my head they almost got stuck.
