Atlanta's Next Top Model
Template:Pp-semi Template:Infobox Television
Atlanta's Next Top Model (made-up) is an international version of the original show, America’s Next Top Model. (The country based on is the fictional island of Atlanta, off the coast of Canada.) Female model hopefuls vie to become the fashion industry's next top model after going through an alleged boot camp of challenges, tests, and lessons in the world of modeling. The show hopes to skyrocket each season/cycle's winner's career in the industry. The current host is Sophie Q (fictional), who is a top model herself from Atlanta, born in Canada. Alongside Sophie Q, 3 other "permanent" judges (and occasional "guest" judges) aid her in determining the eliminees and eventually the winner. The current roster of judges include Jo (fashion designer), and it is speculated that Taylor Vanderburgliesse (fashion photojournalist) will join the team potentially along with another new judge. Past permanent judges include Lauren Lee Claire (editor-in-chief), and Augustus Greene (runway coach and media personality).
Format
Contestants who are eligible to audition for the competition must be at least 5'7", and 16 to 27 years of age. Each cycle there will be an international destination to test the remaining top 6 (usually) contestants with their international modeling capabilities and potential.
The live finale will feature the final 2 contestants. Prior to the finale, the models will go on go-sees (sometimes at Fashion Week) themselves to determine their final catwalks that they will walk to be judged before announcing who will become AtNTM. A finalist may book all jobs or no jobs - it is up to them. Finally, the public's votes before and during the live finale will be tallied up. It will be added to the judge's final decision as to determining who will be crowned Atlanta's Next Top Model.
Changes Starting Cycle 4
From Cycles 1 - 2, the winner received management and representation by Elite Model Management, a Sephora cosmetics campaign worth $100000, and finally a cover and six-page spread within Cosmopolitan magazine.
In Cycle 3, the winner received management and representation by Elite Model Management, a $100000 contract with Revlon Cosmetics, a cover and 4-page spread in Elle Magazine, the chance to be the spokesperson and appear in a national ad campaign and commercial for H&M, and also a sexy new Nissan Maxima!
There are rumours for changes in the prize again starting Cycle 4. In addition to that, eligibility requirements may also differ. There are also going to be two NEW judges replacing Lauren Lee Claire and Augustus Greene.
Starting Cycle 4, it has been speculated that the winner will receive management and representation by IMG Models instead. They will receive the usual $100000 contract with Revlon Cosmetics. Also, they will be on the cover and in a six-page spread in Elle Magazine. In addition, they will also get a chance to go to Paris, France to meet with leading casting agents. Finally, they will win a new Honda Accord.
Reunion Show
A couple of days after the Cycle 3 finale was held, a reunion episode featuring all the girls (except for some) from Cycles 1-3 were brought to talk about how they were now and what they are doing. You can find a summary of the reunion show at the bottom of the Cycle 3 page.
