User blog:Esten Kei/TERROR WHO? (TGDG: Bubblegum Horror - Episode 5)

LAST TIME ON...
[Watch the last episode HERE] 

On the last week of TGDG, the 6 remaining artists participated in their first team challenge! Kiril and Tim, as team captains, had to lead their team as they were challenged to create a coach and background for the iconic song “I Wanna Dance with Somebody”!



Tim led his team to victory and Chichi, as his most hard-working player, won the challenge!

On the other hand, Kiril didn’t coach Erich and Helena well, and the latter’s lack of communication ended her TGDG journey…



Who’s up next?

MUAHAHAHAHAAAA

INTRO


Welcome back my artists! So, teams are officially over now… We’re back to individual mode.

So, a band I’ve really been following hard the past few years of my life is Terror Jr.

Terror Jr. have a signature style of very simplified music that makes you jam to every single beat.

So, this week we are going back to coach making...

HOW IT WORKS
Each episode, our artists fill face a design challenge that I will be grading from 1 to 10 depending on how they fulfill the respective criteria. In the end of each episode, the artist with the highest score will be named the winner of the challenge and the artist with the lowest score will be eliminated from the competition. All this will go on until only one person is left who will win the title of the “JD artist”.



YOUR CHALLENGE: TERROR JR. HOTLIST
So, for this week’s challenge you will have to design a coach based on a Terror Jr. song. I went ahead and picked my fave songs of theirs.

Now, Chichi, as the winner of last week’s episode, you will assign the songs to the artists. First please pick one for yourself and then assign the rest to the others.



CHICHI CONFESSIONAL: I have not listened to any of these songs before so I think that I will listen to them and choose the one that stands out the most. I will then assign the remaining songs based on how much of a competitor I think each person is.

CHICHI - I choose “Sugar”.



CHICHI - TIM gets “Say So”.



CHICHI - KIRIL gets “Heaven Wasn’t Made for Me”.



CHICHI - CHIBI gets “3 Strikes”.



CHICHI - ERICH gets “Appreciation”.



Thank you Chichi. Now,

here’s what you gotta do:


 * Design a JD coach inspired by the song you are assigned to.
 * Your color scheme must include at least one shade of purple.

Great time designing everybody! Good luck!

Oh oh oh! And before I dismiss you, I must say that CVs are no more! From now on, you can only rely on your skills!

See you later!

ATELIER CONFESSIONALS
KIRIL CONFESSIONAL: I listened to the song, I liked it but it was hard to figure out what exactly to do for it…

ERICH CONFESSIONAL: I hate my song… -_-

TIM CONFESSIONAL: It's kinda tough coming up with a unique dancer idea without being generic…

CHIBI CONFESSIONAL: I didn't know what to expect, but I ended up liking it. I really like the weird, glitchy sound of the song, it gave me cool ideas for my creation. I hope you'll like it!

THE JUDGING
After the creating process…

Hello my artists! I see everyone is ready. Let’s see how you did…

ERICH: I like the story behind it, that the blue part is the hair and on top of it is a shower cap. This could have been one of the best entries but your execution is very bad… Sorry.

CHIBI: Ok a very very simple one. Honestly, I don’t know what to say. It’s hair that u didn’t edit and an avatar base which both of them you just copy-pasted on top of each other.

KIRIL: But how is this Lovers on the Sun? Where does the cabaret look come from? Well, the color story is great but I’m confused with your concept...

TIM: Ok I didn’t expect such a look for that song but it looks good! And u designed everything from scratch! Good job.

CHICHI: I don’t see how these flowers match a club song… But the avatar looks great I ain’t gonna lie. Great color story.

THE CALL-OUT
It’s time for the call-out...

This was indeed hard to call...

Only 4 spots are available but there are 5 of you.

You understand that this means that by the end of this call-out, one of you will be leaving the competition.

I’ll call your names, one-by-one from best performance to worst. The first person passing on to the next phase and also the person with the best performance this episode is...

Chibi! Congrats! You are safe!

Next up,...

Erich, You are safe!

Kiril, You are safe!

So, Tim and Chichi, one of you is about to be eliminated...

<p style="text-align:center;">From the two designs left, one is uninspired but fits the assignment, while the other is inspired but missed some marks. This is a hard decision and I think someone sabotaged their own game...

<p style="text-align:center;">Tim, You are safe.

<p style="text-align:center;">Chichi,

<p style="text-align:center;">I’m very sorry my friend but your journey will have to now end. You are an amazing JD artist… <3

<p style="text-align:center;">You are eliminated.



OUTRO


<p style="text-align:center;">[CHICHI exits]

<p style="text-align:center;">CHICHI CONFESSIONAL: I’m sad that I’m out but good luck to everyone else!

<p style="text-align:center;">I really hope this tells you that even though the game is about design, strategy always plays in… Be smart players.

<p style="text-align:center;">Now, as we say, always remember to have fun!

<p style="text-align:center;">See you next week!

<p style="text-align:center;">,your awesome host, Esten Kei.
