Welcome to the final week of Season 8 of the CKF Modeling Competition! It's been a wild ride this season, especially as we tried out a new scoring formula. We're not entirely sure if it worked out any differently than other scoring formats or if it really did what it was intended to do (which was to balance scores out a little bit). We even ran a scoresheet where we dropped everyone's lowest score, and the difference was minuscule: The Top 9 all remained the same, the remaining 6 just swapped a few places (10 and 11 changed places, and 13,14,15 became 15,13,14). | |
When Season 9 happens we may likely return to a traditional elimination-style from week to week, with a small change, in which votes will be much more important than they ever have been, but may mean that we'll either have to change the timing of things a little more or have more things happening at once. We'll figure it out.
With all of that said and done, Congratulations to Violet Bailey Grimwood and Aerin Halie for being our Season 9 Winner and Runner-Up! Aerin has already declined her award so it will be going to Albertina.
Madalynne has also selected monetary awards ($1 million each) for the following recipients:
The Casper Lyn Award will go to Leo Emerson - "I've never disliked his submissions, even in previous seasons. Even when I couldn't score them high on theme or quality, I always like what he does. He takes risks, but it's pretty clear that he enjoys what he does, and that's really all that matters."
The Knox Zorgani Award will be given to Jasmin Keogh - "I just think she's adorable. Every submission made me want to hug her, which probably sounds condescending since her age has a lot to do with it. But if you knew Knox at all, you'd know how much he appreciated cuteness."
