Ep 14. The Dream Team

In the 14th episode of Face Off's 8th season, the remaining contestants are put into dream teams consisting of three people each. Their challenge is to create three unique characters that will be the focus of a horror movie.

As always, the teams have to work under a very tight deadline and need to make sure that their visions are aligned. The stakes are higher than ever as the competition gets closer to the finale, and each contestant is determined to create a phenomenal look.

The judges take a closer look at the three characters created by each team, evaluating each aspect of the design and execution. They're looking for a cohesive vision, excellent workmanship, and uniqueness in each character.

The contestants had to navigate some unique circumstances in this episode. Apart from working in teams, the contestants were met with an additional challenge: a specific type of horror sub-genre was assigned to each team. These included slasher, monster, and haunted house themes.

The teams had to find a way to incorporate their sub-genre into the design without it overpowering the overall vision. This meant that each team had to find a way to balance between creating individual looks that fit into the sub-genre while still having an overall seamless look.

As the clock ticks down, the judges enter the workroom to take a closer look at each team's progress. They offer some guidance where needed, and the contestants had to make adjustments on the fly. The judges provide advice on how to make the designs even more impressive, and the contestants take those suggestions to heart, working furiously to incorporate those last-minute changes.

Finally, the time runs out and the contestants present their work to the judges. They're excited to see each team's interpretation of their assigned sub-genre and are eager to evaluate each look. Although there are some criticisms, the judges are overall impressed by the work created by each team and are left with the tough decision of deciding who will be sent home.

The episode ends with a tense elimination, as one person is sent home, and the remaining contestants are one step closer to being crowned the winner of Face Off Season 8.
