Welcome To The Final Frame!
Longevity in the modeling industry is extremely rare. At one moment you're fashion week's rising star, and the next you're clinging onto department store catalogs. For male models like myself, the challenges we face are difficult, as we are constantly being overshadowed by our female counterparts. I know from experience that dedication, passion, and talent can create a male supermodel with a lasting career. Possessing these characteristics and overcoming obstacles has helped me become one of the decade's most successful male models. But if I'm being frank,
It's Someone Else's Turn.
The Final Frame is designed to help mold 12 aspiring male models into superstars. Through weekly tasks the field will be narrowed until one model outshines the rest in the final frame. Participants in the game will be taking on the alias of an up and coming male model. They will select photos from their model's portfolio throughout the competition.
::CHALLENGES::
Challenges are designed to not only refine technical modeling skills, but also to showcase unique personalities. Each model's challenge will be publicly posted in the designated area. The winner of the challenge will be announced at panel, will win immunity from elimination, and may/may not receive additional rewards. Challenges will be evaluated by the judges and will count as 25% of the models final ranking.
::PHOTOSHOOTS::
Photoshoots will be themed and will test the models on their talent, creativity, and fulfillment of the theme. Unless told otherwise, each model only has one frame to impress the judges. Each photoshoot must be submitted privately in the model's dressing room, hidden from the other competitors until panel is posted. Photoshoots will count as 50% of a models final ranking.
::PANEL::
This is where the judges will meet, discuss, and score the challenges, photoshoots, along with each model's overall performance/growth during the week (25% of overall ranking). Once edited and posted, the judges will have selected the bottom 2 models competing in the final frame.
::CAST INTERACTION::
Although this is somewhat an alias game, as you are taking on the identity of a real life male model, I expect that the cast will interact with one another outside of challenges, photoshoots, and panels. The dressing room will be an outlet where models can voice their opinions on the competition privately, but a true model understands that a little public drama never hurts. This is also a way the judges can see your personality come alive.

::THE FINAL FRAME::
Prior to each panel, models will select a photo to be used in the event they are competing in The Final Frame. This is the last opportunity models can save themselves from elimination and impress the judges. Whichever models end up in the bottom 2 during panel will be judged based on their Final Frame selection. The judges will then vote on who they want eliminated because in the modeling industry...
