::JUDGING PANEL::
week one
---
Welcome models to your very first judging panel of the cycle. This week, it will just be me judging you. Unfortunately, two of you will be put up for the public vote based on your performance this week, and the public will determine which one of you is out of the running.
Shall we begin?

http://antm411.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/raina44.jpg Raina – If you failed this week, I would’ve been so disappointed in you, but you did not cause you really turned it out for this shoot! This is one of my favs, definitely! Your face is filled with a striking, haunting sex appeal that is really captivating. It’s hard to notice anything else with this picture in your face. Good job!
http://i55.tinypic.com/30us5k5.jpg Analeigh – Very expressive. I get the anger. I love the intensity in the eyes. You just really need to watch out for your lips. They’re just a bit too stiff. If you’d loosened them up, maybe opened them a tad bit, I think the shot could’ve been very much improved.
http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu44/igoddess/PhotoShoot1GuideLines-1.png Jessica A. – A bit stiff and blank to be honest. The expression just looks very sad and you’ve lost your neck. The whole shot just feels too controlled.

I love the extension in the neck. You did a good job!
http://i51.tinypic.com/2mrfyqd.jpg Cris –You look beautiful in this photograph. Just work on bringing some light into those eyes. You don’t look completely present in the shot. However, I love the placement of the hands and the wind in the hair. Just focus on really harnessing your expression. It’s a really nice shot overall!

You look pretty, but there’s not much to it. There’s just something about this shot that feels so “high school portrait”. I just feel you could’ve done something a bit more interesting.
http://i55.tinypic.com/5xvr9.jpg Chanel – You look very pretty in this shot, Chanel, very classic, very nice. On the commercial side, but you gave a decent shot. It does feel a bit stiff. The expression does look a bit forced, and the shot overall isn’t the most memorable.
http://i368.photobucket.com/albums/oo126/theybf/June%202010/c36d4ae4.jpg Bre – You’ve got nice cheekbones! I guess my main concern is the expressiveness in your eyes. A bit too blank for me. I would’ve squinted a bit to give your expression a bit more intensity and a bit more impact. But you’ve got a beautiful face, and this shot shows that.
http://ausntm.all-antm.net/albums/userpics/10001/Cassi_-_Show_5.jpg Cassi – I know they loved this shot on AusNTM, but to be quite honest, I don’t get the hype. I think you look beautiful, but the teeth are just a bit too much for me. If you had tilted your head forward a it and given your eyes the spotlight more than the teeth, this could’ve been a stunning shot, but I’m just so distracted by your mouth that I don’t really see you.

Please exit the room while the decision is made. When I call you back, I will announce the models who will be up for the vote. Good luck.
