VH1's 'The Shot' Premieres on Sunday November 4th at 10:00 P.M.
From The Producer Of AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL Comes The New VH1 Reality
Competition Series 'THE SHOT'
NEW YORK, Oct. 29 -- In VH1's new series "The Shot," 10
amateur photographers get the chance to live out their wildest fantasies in
pursuit of their ultimate dream: to become the next great fashion
photographer.
Premiering Sunday November 4th at 10:00 p.m. "THE SHOT" is an eight
episode series that will give 10 aspiring photographers 30 days to compete
for a chance to kick-start their career as a professional fashion
photographer. The cast will live and work together in a downtown L.A. loft
while being guided by world-renowned fashion photographer Russell James.
James, known for his outstanding work in Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire, W,
Photo, Sports Illustrated and Victoria's Secret will guide these aspiring
photographers through a series of photo shoots meant to challenge their
creativity and expose their individual weaknesses. For the first time in
their lives, the cast will work with supermodels and high-end
professionals, while traveling to exotic locations -- all to capture that
one perfect shot.
Our hopefuls quickly find out that the world of high fashion is not
always glamorous -- from challenging location shoots to difficulties with
models -- these aspiring photographers must stay on task to prove that they
have what it takes to get the shot.
Each episode will contain a "teach challenge", where Russell 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 which includes Marie Claire senior fashion editor Zanna
Roberts and Italo Gregorio a lead hairstylist from Victoria's Secret
Beauty, will review the cast's photos, eliminating the weakest shooter.
After a month long journey the best photographer will emerge victorious
with $100,000 courtesy of the skin experts at Vaseline, an editorial spread
in Marie Claire, and a photo spread in the Victoria's Secret catalogue.
10 aspiring photographers ... 30 grueling days ... 1 shot at a
glamorous life in the world of high end fashion photography.
