After the nationwide auditions, finalists are chosen to attend Master Class workshops with respected industry veterans. The top 10 finalists then undergo a gruelling round of weekly presenting challenges and eliminations before the cream of the crop are selected for one final round, elimination and the announcement of the winners.
The judges are tasked in looking for winners who reflect the dynamic spirit of SA with a go-getter attitude that makes them own any room they walk into. They should be unapologetic about who they are, proud of their background and be able to represent South Africa on any stage be it local, regional or international!
