Back to Basics

Back to Basics (BTB) is a photo shoot game on RTVG. Originally the point of the competition was to have themed weeks in which you had to do two similar basic shots, one commercial and one high fashion. This format changed in season two when the cast went from female models to male models.

Elimination & Scoring
You get scored based out of 5 (no lower than .5/5). When all scores are added the two with the lowest overall scores will end up in the bottom two. The one with the lowest overall score then gets eliminated. Because in Season 1 there were two pictures judged, the score was out of 10.

Changes from Season 1 - 2

In season two there were some changes. First there was the addition of co-host and past judge Jamie Dornan. Secondly the cast went from female to male models, this also brought about a change in photo shoots. There will no longer be themed weeks, and there will be some runway challenges, which only happened in Cycle 1 as an elimination round an bonus challenge which was only scheduled after the death of Lee Alexander McQueen. There was also the addition of semi finals, which did not happen in season 1, as well as cutting the cast from 13 to 12 models.
