Camera Angles - Filters being used?

Deceptive camera angles and filters do not help us with sizing...just saying

Seems like standard model placement. Stand at an angle with 'pretty' feet. And heaven forbid, so not show the rear so we can see what it looks if one is a little broad in the beam. Marketing an illusion.

@soozer. Have no idea what you're talking about. What do camera angles have to do with sizing and why?

@soozer Can you be more specific? I don't know what you're seeing or talking about.

Sizing is best based on the Actual Garment Measurements found on the app or website. Watching the models has always been irrelevant to my body type. I do not believe, but have no proof, that Q uses filters. Some of those ladies and a few men up close in HD look every bit their age, unless they use botox and fillers. Necks, eyes and hands in up close shots show every spot, wrinkle and crinkle.

Rick, respectfully, I see your lines of demarcation at the jawline and when you do not blend on those SK Friday shows. Which also proves the makeup team really is gone, because sometimes it so bad he needs to go to the hairline and not stop at the cheek.

Re RICK, both men and women on TV wear makeup. TV studio lights are bright and enormous, washing you out instantly.

Totally understand what you are talking about. It's about all the things presented. I remeber Kathy Levine kept a ruler with her. As much as she was about selling....she wanted people happy with their purchases

Have no idea what this is about either.

I am noticing that the model Lu Ann (sp) is modeling the tsv today and turns to fully display the back of the jeans ...maybe she (or the pwb) read our opinions here?

@LTT1 😃 I have often wondered if they did read our opinions because we have no way of knowing!🥰 Perhaps there are more experienced producers working today!😁

My mother told me I had the BIGGEST "rear end" she had ever seen in her life. SHE wore 6 sizes LARGER...so, I guess beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.....

I've often thought that some clothing items are not presented in the best light that they could be. Just the opposite of what the OP is talking about I guess. I always go by the garment measurements and not how it necessarily looks on the model.

@ellaphant Exactly, yes! I was using Rick as an example that the makeup pro's are gone, and he needs to take a little refresher from LG or Mally, or any of his male co-hosts to work on that blending.😊 I think he is a trip, and this is only a makeup skill observation.

I have seen very unflattering shots of the models on a regular basis. Lots of rear views, close ups of stomach bulges, tight fitting knees, etc.

A couple of the models know we want to see the garment fit. A 1X model comes to mind. She turns around, shows the waistline. Even though I am not built as she is I find it helpful to see how the garment behaves once it's on.

@D Kay I think you are missing the point. We want to see all that, because IRL we are not a flat stationary image from one angle with our clothes smooth down. I want to see them move to see how the features we all have will look in the garments.

@Kachina624 I don't think you are that naive. I am not watching what the op saw, but I have posted about that. Sometimes they only show the models from high angles, or posing in one spot from one angle without moving. High angles make people look thinner, everyone has one good side, and if you don't move, we won't know what the garment looks like when we raise our arms etc.

I want to see models from the angle other people will see me, turning around, raising my arms, bending, all the movements we do IRL.

@NYCLatinaMe

It helps me so much to see the details they are often trying to hide!
