In a casting special the 24 finalists will be whittled down to the final 14 models who will ultimately compete for $100,000. The winning model will also receive a modeling contract with New York Model Management, a professional modeling agency committed to promoting top talent and exciting new faces to the fashion industry with a roster of models. Based on the successful UK series, "Make Me a Supermodel" is hosted by supermodels Niki Taylor and Tyson Beckford.

The competition is fierce on the premiere of "Make Me A Supermodel". The supermodels move into their New York apartment and get to check out their competition. Hosts Tyson Beckford and Niki Taylor tell the designers what their first challenges will be.

It's all about appearance and attitude as the boys and girls are transformed and start to look and feel like real fashion models. Then the models learn how to ooze attitude on the runway.

Chemistry is put to the test on "Make Me A Supermodel" as the male and female models are paired up to see who generates the most heat. For the photo shoot, the models must find ways to work together to sizzle for the camera, and on the catwalk they'll find out if they can share the spotlight.

The competition heats up when the models have to take it all off. They'll learn the need for poise and elegance while taking direction from an artist. The temperature will rise even further when the models must let go of their inhibitions and pose for a circle of art students who will sketch them in charcoal.

The competition gets serious when the models go to work at New York's glamorous Fashion Week, where they're forced to step up their game in the presence of established working models.

The models are tested on their versatility, both in front of the camera and on the runway, when they work with an acting coach to convey a range of emotions. An androgynous runway shoot will be the true test of who has the wide range of looks that a true supermodel needs.

The models are pushed to their limits when they are taken outside their comfort zone for a photo shoot in the woods, while their catwalk is complete with wild animals and exotic headpieces as the judges look to see who can stand out from the pack.

The models head off on a winter getaway for a photo shoot that involves speed and snow, where they are tested on their ability to stay focused in challenging circumstances. They also head to a trapeze school to test their stability and versatility, something they'll need in this week's unusual catwalk.

The models get a crash course in brand management with the chance to work with a high-profile label. The competition heats up with this week's catwalk highlighting vintage clothing.

The models head to New Orleans to lend their hand doing charity work. They test their skills as the competition takes a darker turn, with a photo shoot in a cemetery and a gothic runway show.

The remaining models get a dose of what the modeling world is really like as an A-List photographer flies in for a final high-profile shoot. With only four models left, the competition gets fierce as they prepare for one of their final catwalks.

Hosted by Bravo programming executive and "Watch What Happens" host Andy Cohen, the 14 models reunite to discuss what they've been up to since leaving the competition and to set the record straight on what really went on in the house. Find out what they think of the final four models, and check out never-before-seen footage from the season.

The final four models spend the day at New York Model Management and head out to go-sees to meet clients, meet with GQ editor Adam Rappaport and celebrate their last days in the city. The winner is revealed in a final intense catwalk.

In the premiere episode, sixteen aspiring models find themselves in the heart of New York City, competing for $100,000, a modeling contract with New York Model Management, and a fashion pictorial in Cosmopolitan magazine. The models are immediately thrown into their first photo shoot of the competition, where they are challenged to create an intimate moment as they dangle high above New York City in a plexiglass box. For their first elimination catwalk, the models meet the esteemed panel of judges: model scout and manager Marlon, model Jenny Shimizu, photographer Perou, and renowned fashion designer Catherine Malandrino.

An early morning e-mail sends the models to Manhattan for their next photo shoot with photographer Suza Scalora. The competition amps up when the models get their new “supermodel” makeovers. This brightly colored challenge tests what they can do with candy as their inspiration. Continuing with the color theme, the catwalk brings high energy to the judge's table, but additional challenges keeps the models on their toes.

The models head back to high school for their next challenge, where they test their skills with wire work as they to capture an authentic sports moment. The athletic theme continues on the catwalk, and Tabatha Coffey from Bravo's Tabatha's Salon Takeover joins as a guest judge.

The stakes are raised as the models learn their prize for winning this week's photo shoot will be a trip to Montreal, where they will have the opportunity to walk in Montreal Fashion Week. Guest mentor supermodel/actor Michael Bergen fills in for Tyson Beckford and supermodel Maggie Rizer serves as a guest judge.

The remaining models compete in a military themed challenge and learn they will be broken up into groups of three for a risqué photo-shoot. The catwalk challenge keeps the lines of sexuality blurred. Author and photographer Kelly Klein joins the panel as a guest judge.

The models fight to stay afloat in this week’s challenge as they undertake their first underwater photo shoot with acclaimed photographer Howard Schatz. On the catwalk, noted Brazilian fashion designer Alexandre Hirtchkovic joins the panel as a guest judge.

It's party time as the models find themselves flashing back to the '60s in this week's challenge. They will be posing for world-renowned photographer and elite party icon, Roxanne Lowit. This week's catwalk will be an all-out style war, and stylist Rebecca Weinberg serves as a guest judge. Stakes are even higher as not one but two models are eliminated.

The models leave Manhattan behind, heading to the country for a photo shoot with photographer Aliya Naumoff who asks them to embrace their inner farmer. On the catwalk, the models gain inspiration from the English countryside. Supermodel Maggie Rizer returns as a guest judge and is joined by renowned hair stylist Harry Josh.

The seven remaining models get a lesson in accessorizing during this week's photo shoot as the items they choose are the only thing between them and the lens of photographer Bill Diodato. The models rock the catwalk, but to their surprise, they won't be alone.

The models get the opportunity to display the "Rowdy" fashion line by Grammy Award-winning producer Dallas Austin and participate in a photo shoot with Patrik Andersson. The catwalk challenges the models to perfect their balance by gliding down the catwalk — on wheels.

The models must warm up the camera on a winter day outside on a beach in New York. Renowned art and fashion photographers Markus Klinko and Indrani shoot the chilly swimsuit wearing models who are accessorized with creatures from the deep. The catwalk challenge makes the models channel their inner blond as they wear fashions from the red-hot fashion design team "The Blonds."
