More about this game
Take on the role of a photographer in this studio simulation. Your goal is to reach 100% session quality by capturing high-scoring photos. For each of the four poses, you must find the ideal combination of key light angle, exposure level, and color filter. The score of each shot depends on how closely your settings match the pose's ideal aesthetic, plus a small rhythm bonus for timing. Build a gallery of your five best frames before the session ends.
Tips
- Each pose has an ideal filter for the best aesthetic: use Warm for Classic and Seated, Vivid for Profile, and Mono for Motion.
- The key light angle is crucial, making up 38% of your score. Drag on the stage to adjust it carefully between 20 and 165 degrees.
- Timing matters! Up to 15% of your score comes from a hidden rhythm, so try capturing shots at a steady pace to maximize your frame rating.
Questions
How do I finish a session?
You complete a session when your overall Session Quality reaches 100%. Each captured photo adds to this total based on its score, contributing up to 18% per shot.
Why are my photo scores low?
Your score depends heavily on matching the light angle, exposure, and filter to the current pose. If your aesthetic settings are fighting the pose, your score will drop significantly.
How do I change the model's pose?
You can cycle through the Classic, Profile, Seated, and Motion poses by tapping directly on the main stage area or by pressing the Right Arrow key on your keyboard.
