Results - Round 7//Round 8 Theme

Yay, you all got your entries in! I love all of these; great job interpreting the theme, everybody!

Bekah with Alayna

Priya with Penelope

Silence with Felicity

VKPixie with Maya

Willow with Josefina

Phoebe with Evelyne

Madeline with Katie

Great job, everybody! I know that this theme was somewhat more difficult than others, but you all did a really awesome job. Since you all got your entries in, I have to eliminate two of you... :'( So I made the very difficult decision to eliminate... VKPixie with Maya and Silence with Felicity.You two were really great contestants and I hope you can compete in Season 9!

Onto special mentions...

Phoebe with Evelyne -  Very cute. I love how bright it is, and it depicts a very realistic scene.

Willow with Josefina - This is really awesome. The lighting and setup are all done in a realistic manner, and the overall idea is very sweet.

I figured that putting the new theme in this post would create less bulk, etc. So, your theme for round eight is...

Creativity!

Obviously this theme is very vague and gives you a lot of scope for the imagination [kudos to whoever catches that quote!]. I think this theme shouldn't just depict creativity, but it should be creative in and of itself.  Get some crazy ideas, guys. Anything goes in this round, as long as it's creative. I really want this theme to be bursting with creativity and awesomeness.

Your entries for round 8 are due on or before Tuesday, October 9. Now I shall proceed to say what I say every round. I know you're sick of it, but I'll say it anyway:

Remember what counts:

*Quality

*Creativity [duh, haha]

*Setup/angle

*Awesomeness

And as always, try to keep your camera steady with a tripod or something of the sort.

Have fun, and get crazy with this theme!

much love,

~Jessie~

Your entries are due today!!

Just a reminder that you all should have your entries for round 7 in by 11:59 pm tonight, Pacific time. I'm just waiting for Willow's, Madeline's, and Silence's, and then I can show you the results! If I get all three before midnight I can probably post them today. Remember, focus on creativity and quality. Have fun!

much love,

~Jessie~

Round 7 theme

Wow, round 7 already? This season is going by way too fast. Anyway, I'm here with your new theme, which is...

Remembering You.

You know, like remembering a special someone, like a parent or friend. Try and keep it clean, as in no boyfriend/girlfriend stuff. I know, I know, that totally just ruined your amazing idea, but I'd like to keep it appropriate for all ages.... There is a Steven Curtis Chapman song with the name 'Remembering You' that I was sort of inspired by, so you're definitely allowed to base your entry off of that.

These are due Wednesday, September 26th. As always, focus on creativity and quality. I don't know how many times I've said this, but I'll say it again: Use. A. Tripod. Seriously, guys, I've improved so much in photography since season 7 of AGC and I've learned that tripods are the way to win. Or at least make sure your photos aren't blurry, that always helps. (: Go out and get shooting! I eagerly await your pictures.

much love,

~Jessie~

Phoebe with Evelyne

Y'all were SO creative with this round!! I loved each and every one of them.

Only one person (Emma with Lanie) didn't get her picture in, so she is now out of the contest. ): Thanks to those who did get their entries in!! I won't be eliminating anyone who got their pictures in this round.

Bekah with Alayna--so sweet! I love that you only showed the hands. The quote is adorable and the lighting/setup are great!

Phoebe with Evelyne--This is super cute. I really like the angle and the focusing! The whole idea of the picture is awesome.

Your next theme will be posted asap. Hopefully today if I can remember it. Great job again, everybody!!

much love,
~Jessie~
