Did anyone watch the first episode of The Shot on television this week?
I missed the premier on Sunday, but saw the replay of it just now. It's reality-based competition between photographers. Currently, they are split into two teams of five each, but ultimately they are competing for one and only one grand prize.
"Each episode will contain a "teach challenge", where Russell James presents the cast with a new technical or creative lesson, and a photo shoot, in which the cast will be asked to utilize what they've learned in a legitimate, fashion-oriented photo campaign. Each week Russell and his professional panel will review the cast's photos, eliminating the weakest shooter."
The winner gets US$100,000, an editorial spread in Marie Claire fashion magazine, and a national campaign with Victoria's Secret.
What I especially enjoyed about the show (at least the first episode) was when they critique each photo that the contestants submitted.
