Summary: The third Venus Index transformation and open contests are in the final stretch and it's time to get ready to take your final pictures. I suggest going through and listening to some interviews of previous winners to get a good idea of how to take a good picture at home. You can listen to a previous post explaining picture taking here: How To Take After Pictures Here is an example of some simple competition poses: Marli On Stage Spend some time going through fitness magazines and pick out your top 10 favorite images/poses and try to recreate them with your final pictures. Here is the short list of what you need to send in before midnight Nov 23rd EST to complete your VT3 contest submission. 1. 3 standard poses front, side, back, with current days newspaper front page visible in at least one of the pictures. 2. 10-15 other pictures with your favorite poses, no more than 15. (be creative, look through magazines and previous contest winners and our examples here to choose how to pose) 3. Venus Index contest data chart that you filled out at the beginning of the contest. Complete this chart with all the necessary info including, name, weight, height, hip, waist and shoulder measurements from before and after, including the total change in each measurement as well as how close you are to VI...the chart will calculate all of this for you, but if you've had issues downloading it you will need to do these calculations manually. 4. 250 word essay describing your experience with VI and going through the contest. 5. Re-size all pictures to approximately 500 pixels in height. Keep the original picture in it's full size on your computer, if you qualify to be one of our cover models we'll need to the full size picture to put you on one of our product covers. 6. Name each picture with your first and last name and the associated pose ex: "Jane_Doe_Front" 7. Put all of the materials in a file and compress it to a zip file, and name the entire file with your first and last name, and VT3 after pics ex: "Jane_Doe_VT3_After_Pics" 8. Email the zip file to me at johnbarban (at) gmail (dot) com no later than midnight Wed Nov 23rd EST I've outlined all of this with some more info in todays coaching podcast. LISTEN:
