Still like that old time rock and roll,
That kind of music just soothes my soul,
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time rock and roll.

I just want to thank Tim Kern aka YMONSTER for letting me use his house and my lady ROANE for giving me the idea for this set.

Enjoy

For the record, one of my top recent favourites. I think it's funny, hot, well shot. I can't think of any reason this should have been rejected. It's a theme that hasn't been done before and it's just downright awesome.

PUT THIS SET UP!

I'm with the consensus when it comes to the opinion of your set: It deserves to skip over other sets in the cue system and be put up 1st thing Monday morning. What in the name of God was SG staff thinking? ugh...

I loved it! I'm normally not at a loss for seeing areas where a rejected set can be improved, and I like to give what I think might be helpful criticism for a Hopeful's next try. But I have nothing to offer here because this one already hits every note perfectly!

The model is adorable, just as advertised, with great ink and cute new black hair. She is sexy and creative in her posing and the props she uses are interesting in themselves. The location has personality but doesn't impose on the subject or get in the way. The lighting is brilliant and vibrant and every shot is dynamically composed and beautifully focused (check out the detail and luminosity every time the camera looks into Addie's eyes!) The images are sequenced nicely (other than being in reverse order, which is obviously not Addie's fault but a problem with SG's code or instructions based on how often if happens in Hopefuls' sets) and Photoshopping several of them into multiple images adds urgency and motion to the story. And the story -- is there anyone looking at this site who doesn't know the iconic image of Tom Cruise in his briefs singing his freedom into existence for no one's pleasure but his own? The set is fun and funny and exciting. So... WTF?

If this set isn't a perfect SG set, then I think this community needs an explanation of what exactly IS a perfect set! Enough of this crappy arbitrariness and the Cheney-like secrecy in making decisions on which sets go pink! I would love to hear an SG photo editor explain point by point why this set is rejected and justify that explanation in relation to some of the recently accepted sets. I won't hold my breath.
