Ink Master Is Fake And This Is Why

- The reality competition show Ink Master may give tattoo artists a chance to prove that they’re the best at what they do, but it doesn’t go down exactly as you see it on TV. In fact, some former cast members and insiders have shared that a lot of the most dramatic moments are manufactured for TV, and the buzzer-beater finishes are often just editing tricks. In addition, the judges don’t really have as big of a part to play as the show suggests. Let’s take a look at some reasons why a lot of people think that Ink Master is fake.

One thing that really made me upset was when the judges discriminated against that guy who had no tattoos. It was ridiculous and made me so upset. No tattoo artist is forced to have tattoos.
Yeah... plus I think it'd be cool to see an artist with no tattoos do some amazing tattooing.
Ngl if I went into a studio to get a tattoo and my artist had none, I'd be questioning it too
jamie from s2! i remember that so well because i thought it was such a bullshit judgement. didn't help the fact that he got sent home that episode as well. i understand the sentiment too because of course if he has a tattoo that he wants done, then he has the right to research and find the right artist. although now i think he shouldn't because that's such a different brand to have
y'all may think its BS but that isn't just the opinion of the ppl on the show. a LARGE portion of the Tattoo industry feels the same way. Your supposed to trust someone to give you something permanent yet they cant commit to something themselves. I would think it was strange. Its just an unwritten rule in the industry so i don't see how u can blame the judges for that. its not like that's ONLY the opinion of ppl on that show, that's most of the industry.
@@jessvan1206 you have to admit the way that episode played/edited out was sus because it gave the viewers the impression that they eliminated him because of the tattoo he did on top of the fact that he had no tattoos
The one thing I really hated was whenever a woman got a tattoo with a lot of gore, the judges would not like it because it was not elegant and girly. In the end, the artist would get a bad review because of this even though the woman wanted it like that.
no literally. i was just watching a clip of this girl getting tattooed a big old school cartoon show on her back and the judges said something about a cute girl walking in and leaving with a tattoo that looks like that for example makes her “less cute”. it really is some misogynistic bullshit
@@benandjerrys9147 like her ''value'' went down? weird people man
@@benandjerrys9147 the tattoo biz is pretty misogynistic unfortunately :/
when they call the tattoos feminine 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Still refuse to watch it after they heavily discriminated against that one guy with no tattoos. His work was amazing, and because he had no tattoos, they always called him out for it. It really pissed me off.
That's pretty common in the tattoo world tho I believe, giving someone shit for no art. Classic apprenticeships had u tattoo yourself first, do unto others as you would yourself. A guy with no tattoos clearly didnt, so in their world he'll never have quite have the same respect since he didnt go thru that same rite of passage
Never trust a skinny chef
B tat was his name. And discriminating is strong. They just were confused/lost respect for him because 13 years as a pro tattooer, and you don't have 1 tattoo? That's like being a comic writer, without drawing a single panel.
@@a.smarvelous9149 That's a really bad comparison. At the end of the day, as long as he could tattoo, why focus on his empty skin? There was no reason to single him out constantly just because he wasn't like everyone else.
@@averysunniemagpie8958 Its tattoo tradition.
But at the end of the day, we can all agree that we see some pretty badass tattoos on this show!
Not really, they don't focus on the tattoos nearly as much as they should.
@@marcellogenovese199 Nah most are just dumb shit that will look crap once you get old
yeah but the most bad ass tattoos always win !
@@joshuakarmann7488 are you stupid? I don't want to know how they get when they are old.i just watch to see the tattoos.
Not at all. The very first 2 season had some really dope artists
The dead giveaway is the fact that every 30 seconds they’ll say “AND THE WINNER WILL BE TITLED INK MASTER” and every person goes “Yeah” or giggles or goes “WOW” like they’ve never heard that before.
Yea all the reactions are such bullshit and clearly edited in. Someone produces unreal work, gets a good critique and you see people pulling sour faces, as if
"you will be judge by Oliver Peck, Chris Nunez and me"
"you will be judged by us, and also by America, using same criteria as the judges"
yeah, i get annoyed with how often they say it xD
@@BarugoSama they could've use footage of them concepting and being productive, but noo..
Yeah, i don't understand why they make him say that every single time. A lot of competition shows do that and it's annoying lol. I get saying it maybe the first three episodes as a reminder, but every single time gets to be too much
Omg no way, you're telling us they shoot all the "time's almost up" shots beforehand instead of making a famous rock star wait 12 hours every episode? Total shock.
And they made the artist wear some headphones from their sponsor, why is this even worth mentioning? This is what sponsors do and why the artists can win a 100k.
NOTAMV he said it because most of the people in the comments do not think that’s the way it goes. They really believe otherwise.
Your sarcasm is cringe af. You sound like a 12 year old that just found it was fake.
Lol I like your sarcasm
I was so expecting more from this video if it's titles Ink master is fake. He told us nothing that a rational person would expect. This is how TV works
Is the main guy a rockstar? I don’t know that much about rock.
I always assumed that the judges didint stick around for 6 hours waiting for the tattoos to get done... idk how thats surprising
I'm glad the time limit is fake, otherwise that's just unethical.
Bit strong mate!
People are volunteering for a free tattoo. They know the risks. There is nothing unethical about it.
GBThreeCount i thought for the artists 🤔
ImaginaryMdA The time limit is fake, but the artists still do horrible tattoos. That let's you know that the artists just aren't good.
The time limit isn't fake. The way it's portrade to the public is what's edited.
i always figured Ink Master was staged. the tattoos are real though. thats what keeps me coming back.
Bruh Sweet for real, it's mesmerizing watching them tattoo
Yeah same fam the art is cool as well can’t fake that they got rid of the ink juries as wel
exactly.
Bruh Sweet
I agree while it may be a reality tv. The talent is 100% real.
Bruh Sweet real tattoos gotten fakely so ya you are correct
I really don't care that it's fake. The programm's drama and excitement of who wins or loses get's me.
That's why we have so many shitty TV shows. British shows much are usually much better quality without the artificial drama, and tense music
Joe Staaf so you watch for the shitty drama but not for the tattoos jesus christ wtf is wrong with people.
And get to see bad tattoos and good tattoos
@quinten verbist what’s wrong with people like you criticizing people for watching the shows for a reason they don’t approve of?
@@TsukiKageTora if you watch a Tattoo show for drama, and not for the tattoos, damn you wrong
There is a time limit! My sister was a canvas on the show. If there wasn't, people wouldn't end up with unfinished tattoos! An why would the judges stay there for 6 hours doing nothing while people are getting tattoos? That makes no sense
Exactly because there's been people who left with unfinished tattoos like when Tatu Baby did the garter belt on season 3 they only had 4 hours and she couldn't finish it. So people saying there's a time limit is bs.
i agree..
@Me memememememe me me doing unfinished tattoos and bad tattoos from drama..u kidding me..that would ruin the reputation of the artist on show..they have their own shops to run after the show..they would never agree to a drama that can potentially ruin their career..people who lost in the beginning are poor tattoo artist..and most clients wouldn't prefer to go to them over someone better..so why would they agree to hurt their own reputation just to create drama! if someone does that. that's a foolish thing to do..
@@pratikshamajee3262 people have done far worse for much less, money talks.
@@selectselect5982 ya they have but doing that isn't smart though
**It's scripted not fake**
That's what people mean when they say fake....
"scripted" doesn't equal to "reality" hence you can call it "fake" in this case.
Eeh i kinda agree w u
Real btw
You're a liberal. That much is true
The saddest thing about this is the people who get bad tattoos on the show and are stuck with them for life.
MrRJMGREEN what is wrong with you are you okey??
Kinda, but they volunteered, some of them to get whatever the artist wanted; so, it was their risk.
That's why they have redemption.
MotoX Champ it’s not a big deal. When you die you rot along w the tattoos. Plus makes a dope story
The company pays for covers and removals. Some of them are done with temp or semi temp ink
HOLD UP. Season 7 New School Dino challenge canvas here. The artists are not allowed to go over 6 hours. The production crew tells them times, Dave DOES pre record the time calls. BUT they are ONLY given 6 hours to ink. The judges walk through and spend most time off set that is true, but they comment and ask questions when they are in your booth. The other artists do the same. Those stupid headphones are product placement and plugged into nothing AND we don’t even get to keep them, they clean them and record them on the next person. Our jury sent the pregnant Dino with St. Mark in second place for worst, Marq went home.
What episode? I wanna watch
It’s to expensive on CZcams does in stream in anything else? I’m checking Netflix to see after this.
Lol CZcams probably already ruined the first two seasons but it’s time to binge, would love to see this pregnant dinosaur
@@blakemorgan1444 telegram u download the episodes when u search channels it's free as well
@@blakemorgan1444 they have it in youtube. Saw it yesterday.
I would say these flash challenges fit in cause you need creativity.
Pikmii agreed, they even explain how it relates. When watching the show, I definitely see how it relates and the lessons it teaches . It good to have different ways to learn one thing. My friend who is a rat major says it’s like this, you do a bunch of other things first to learn different aspect of art and then you fine tune it into what you do. But, they shouldn’t make some of those challenges so physically taxing.
tatiana Castillo your friend is a rat major
We also have to keep in mind thag it is a Tv show and the flash challenges not only help the artists pick up on new strategies and techniques but they also switch it up for the viewer and the outcome is usually pretty awesome
Completely agree, they help the artists use new mediums to hone in on their artistic abilities and show that they are more rounded than just a “tattoo artist”. I honestly love watching the flash challenges too!
I don’t think some of them were right for the challenge they have later in the episode. I’ve seen Face Off and most of their challenges before the actual main challenge links in to the challenge somehow
I think "Fake" is being a little bit confused with "Set up for T.V." - yeah some of the shots aren't legitimate and the dialogue is forced to an extent, but ultimately the artists are producing tattoos and that part is real. Nobody expects the tattoos to all be being worked on down to the wire or the judges to spend all day just sitting around in there waiting for them to be done. Flash challenges aren't a revelation they're clearly not tattoo challenges, but it's still a form of art, it's entertainment.
The problem is that the judging is "fake". They don´t kick the worst artist out, the kick the "most boring" artists (who don´t create a lot of drama) out. They can ruin an artists reputation with this way of "judging", because the most people are not able to see, if a tattoo is good or bad and just trust the judges decisions. If the judges decide to kick out a good artist in the first or second round, oly because he is not so entertaining than much worser artists, the majority of people think, this artist is bad and they will not go to him. That´s very sad.
@@eXtremeGoLden several winners have been boring and not part of the drama. Usually the best artists stick around for a long time.
0:32 if this is true then some people had time to make a good tattoo and still made doodoo
yeah, but is also just 1 guy on Reddit saying that.. cuz, hard to understand many doing overtime and still not finishing a tattoo...
like,. wtf?
I agree with you
If you're gonna do do do then it doesn't matter how much time you've got it's still gonna be poo.
I actually skip the drama part and jump right into the critiques. There's some phenomenal work in these shows, plotted or not.
Same, most drama parts are just tattoo artists shouting at each other.
@@luda3124 It's simple for me. I watch because I still find the process of tattooing amazing. From the layout that I myself can't make out anything to the artist making it come alive with such precision and foresight.
As far as getting tattooed, it just takes me to a different place.
One of the things I have always noticed is when canvases are assigned, if an artist says "don't give me THAT one" they get that one. Same with duo or teams as well
I just watch for the tattoos. Never thought it was "real". It's good to see Angels took some lessons from The Ink Master judges...
sometimes their picks are outrageous too.
next your going to tell me that "pimp my ride" was basically a fake show
Well, now that you mention it . . . .
There is a youtube video about that actually.
Man!!! Pimp my ride!!!!!!
So many years... im so old
r/whoosh
it actually was
I mean, the thing about the judges spending time there is pretty obvious, I can't imagine them staying 6+ hours there doing nothing xD But yeah, they REALLY do play favourites, specially on Kyle's season. They were too harsh with him, and the winner, if judged fairly, would've been eliminated a couple episodes before the finale. I understand the flash challenges tho, they don't eliminate, they use artistic abilities and are entertaining. That said, it's still fun. I usually skip the drama parts and only watch the challenges and judging, the tattoos are still real, and you learn at least a little bit about what makes a good tattoo.
I started watching Ink Master to learn about tattoos, and I did. Some of the guest judges in the early seasons certainly demonstrated the diff between a fantastic tattoo and the contestants' tattoos. I did get tired of the drama. I will watch the next season tho--the ingenuity of the flash challenges is worth watching.
I just watch it so i can see the tattoos
I don't think it's any secret that the judges are barely in the room during the tattooing. These were all pretty weak arguments! If you don't like it, don't watch
right? Why would they need to be their for 6-12 hrs doing nothing while they finish the challenges or tattoos.

Horrible work?🤣
Please show me your portfolio
Exactly.
Cassidy Starke honetly curious why you are using the line “please show me your portfolio” as a way to one up the other person who didnt claim to be an artist.
@@rachele7398
Then don’t bash other artists🤷🏽♀️.
heather sin complained THE WHOLE TIME. nobody else was complaining
She was naive enough to give the producers enough to create that narrative. They spent filming and condensed her story just to the complaining. It makes the audience not like her and it's entirely that cynical.
@@heatherm7933 true, it is reality tv after all
In one episode they ultimately got rid of one of the better artist, souly because he himself had no tattoos. All the while the show promotes no judging people because of their tattoos.
IKR! Jamie! He did not deserve to go home, they were being babies. I loved it how they drew tattoos on him.
you are wrong. they did not get rid of him for that reason. they even clarified that in that seasons finale. also yeah i want my tattoo artist to know what it's like to get tattoos, sorry.
I wouldn't spend my hard earned cash at a fancy italian restaurant if i knew the chef had never even tried italian food before. give me a break bro
I mean, it's called "SHOW" for reason 😂
Yes but they are playing it off like its real and fair. There are some really obvious points though where there is some shocking bias towards certain people. You have to remember the people on the show are going in thinking they have a legit shot at winning so bias from the judges/producers is not ok
Anna k facts lol
just because it’s a show ... doesn’t mean it’s automatically fake
You could have just saved yourself the time of making a video by titling it "Reality TV is fake and everyone knows why".
No. There is no reality in a reality TV show. That's why it's a TV show. You want reality? Follow my boring ass around with cameras for a week. That's reality.
Actually, MOST people refuse to accept the reasons why--and refuse to do the research. Going down the rabbit hole of what our government is doing to it's own citizens and the world at large, at the behest of their corporate and financially elite masters--employing only what can be proven with mainstream articles, historically recorded undisputed FACT, journal entries from the most prestigious universities, etc..., will lead you to a terrifying reality. These shows are fake for a litany of complex and layered political, moral (or rather immoral), and social programming/engineering reasons. Yes, commercial interests are behind many of the decisions. However, as dastardly as that is (and the commercial decisions they make ARE diabolical, completely unethical)--that's the least of it.
Most people think its real. Or else they wouldn't tune in
What I hate about the show, it’s all about the drama, and the actual tattoo gets about 2 seconds airtime! I want to see the tattoos and appreciate them, I prefer “Angels”, because of this.
Is angels another tattoo competition show? I like ink master just because it has cool tattoos and stuff but if I can switch to something less staged I would be pretty happy
My least favourite thing about it is how they give the contestants two litres of red bull before throwing them in to film those confessionals. Too much!
Angels is actually worse. Ryan and the girls are always hard pressed to pick the female entrants over the males... and besides they themselves still are not on a level to be judging anyone. I mean some calls and critiques I've seen and heard. Some of those tattoos have no right being on TV...LOL
Giovanni Clarke - I guess you did not see my reasoning for why I prefer Angels, and each to their own?
Giovanni Clarke I hate jumping in here, but have you ever watched any episodes with female competitors? They almost NEVER make it to the next round, and even if they do they're defeated by an angel.
The judges actually say some tattoos are bad, but they're dope. It's because everyone has different eyes and see different art.
literally nothing in this is ground breaking news, i think everything in this video is common knowledge for the most part. the couple things i will say is a) Kyle Dunbar very openly on the show claimed the judges were biased against him, and he had a point. however this was an effort made by the judges as they thought he responded well to harsh criticism, the entire situation ended up blowing up, with kyle repeatedly pushing Chris Nunez and him getting kicked off the show as a result. B) the time limits seem to have impacted many contests which multiple saying they ran out of time, and producing unfinished tattoos, while they might have a few rules that may allow you to finish what you're doing before coming to a complete stop i highly doubt that this would occur as frequently as it does if the really did have an arbitrary time limit
this information seems to be twisted in a way to present the idea that the show isnt depicting what i feel is quite blatant. yes, there is no way there these are authentic personalitys, its sort of like pro wrestling, its your personality dialed all the way up to 10, and the producers will try to create conflict. The flash challenges are for entertainment purposes, very clearly. painting with blood, creating sand castles and using explosives like gun powder are clearly not tattoos, but its a fun way to show artistry and are merely to give a small advantage of skull picks. product placements and pre tapings are happening on just about every tv show. this video seems pretty redundant

Exactly
They made an unnecessary video that will make them money, it's better than shoplifting.
I actually love the flash challenges. Yeah it doesn't have anything to do with tattooing but these people are supposed to be artists. These challenges are interesting and it's cool to see each tattoo artist be challenged creatively so see more of them as real artists rather than just tattoo artists. Some of these people are really talented and creative and really get to shine and usually the more artistic/ creative people make better tattoos too cuz you know... its art
Nano Poysungnern You would think that, and that’s what the producers want you to think, however you need to realise that the entire show is based on tattooing and not art. It’s like watching a family drama and suddenly there’s action in it, you’re ok with it but it just isn’t what the story is about.
Star Cherry you cant lose in flash challenges. So your point is invalid
Exactly. In the end it all comes down to your tattoo skills the flash challenges are just some extra to challenge them creatively
What people doesn't realise is that a reality show is a show, not a championship. It's not do the best tattoo in a comfortable scenario, it's not swimming in the olympics, it's more like throwing you to a swamp with cocodriles and see who crosses it first. Same with any reality, it's just enterntaiment and anything goes. It would be amazing a championship with the best tattooers face to face but that's not gonna happen because the attempts made had way worse audiences than this. People doesn't care about art or truth, people want drama, Ink master's producers knows that and grunge knows that too, hence this video.
Couldn't agree more, these are tattoo ARTISTS, they're talents should expand beyond just tattooing, whilst the show is about tattooing largely, flash challenges break it up nicely. I mean how could you complain about the electric sparks one, all the artists got so pissed of as most of them didn't have the perseverance, but that one dude did an incredible drawing of a hammerhead shark, I thought that was awesome
Wow ruined it all. Oh well. I should have known. All shows are fake and everything on tv is fake also. Even the news. I don't watch TV anymore anyway
because online is so trustworthy also tv is entertainment not live action if you want realism go do it your self.
Lol u read me mind that true don’t let those mg manipulate u live I’m work by me self live by me self for 5!year don’t even have address Jajajaja
Wait National Geographic and ufc are fake?
ABW Backyard Wrestling & Randomness if it's on TV yes. I guess to an extent. It's like saying wrestling is fake. U know it's fake but the wrestling is real. So to an extent, yes
iNREEk, Proffessional wrestling and the ufc are opposites. Just because something is on TV doesn't necessarily mean it is fake. Like ufc, it is real. No winners are pre-determined.
A reality show faked? You don't say...thanks captain obvious

Idc if it's fake i like how the way they make beautiful art work
These are stuff you're gonna find in every Reality TV show... Thought this video would actually reveal something people wouldn't expect.
3:22 This is exactly the reason I stopped watching. It says a lot when the fans can even see the judges play favorites...
Finally someone said something about the stupid flash challenges that have nothing to do with tattooing
I agree. But TV companies aren't stupid; surely they did some sort of audience research on this...and the result must have been that the general public can't sit through a whole hour of solid tattooing. I like the flash challenges but, yeah, defo nothing to do with being the most accomplished tattooist.
rikki everyome already knew that tho lol....
Have nothing to do with tattooing, but a good artist will do art with pretty much anything
But i agree with you, i like episodes when the flash challenge is a tattoo
Sarah-I am sure they did, but you have them building sand castles and lifting bricks-do you want a fatigued artist with a shaky, strained arm trying to ink you?
iknow right
All of this can be extremely obvious when you watch Season 1 and 2.
congratulations, you've learned how reality TV works

Black Mormon o
You know Dave Navarro is in his 50’s. wtf right , doesn’t make sense
It’s funny how they only interviewed the losers and ppl who went home on day 1. Like they really have good things to say about the show. Kyle Dunbar was the biggest wuss on the show. Of course he’ll say the judges are playing favorites. His art sucks and he can’t see that
So I guess all the canvases were losers? Sounds about right lol.
You do realize the winners are more likely lie and exaggerate because they’re under contract or simply don’t want to bite that hand that fed them, right? Would you rather hear that??
They absolutely play favs, I see it every season
Chris Davis Kylo said to the entire room of his fellow artists that Chris hates him, and all of them said that his tattoo should be in the top, and then Chris trashed it and send him to the bottom which made everyone look surprised. So, unless that part was scripted too, Kyle was right about judges playing favorites.
The other side of it is then pushing Ryan Ashley for her looks, when she wasn’t the best on her season and often wasn’t critiqued for issues she had, when other artists went to the bottom for the same things.
Dude I was thinking that too lmao
Started watching this some weeks ago, and honestly? I kinda already knew it was pretty fake. No reality show is real and editing can do wonders to any type of midia. I think the show would still be entertaining without all the drama and urgency but I also understand USA culture tends to value these aspects
As an artist myself, I recall a lot of times I raised my eyebrows at some of the time challenges. Like I thought yeah right... There's no way they did that tattoo in one session and in that short amount of time.
i would prefer it be real but in the end i just like seeing what tattoos they make. some of the outcomes though are terribly staged like in the last season rolly making it to the finals on that pin up come on guys atleast try to keep consistant
Also that girl alliance shit was so staged, all of them got easy ass pieces, and that hot girl won on an easy ass tattoo while the other guy killed it with a japanese piece which was out of his comfort zone.
I feell you
But it's still nice to see the good pieces of art that this dudes do
i tried to forget that season ryan shouldn't have won the guy peice was way better.
HIS SHARK OMG @ rolly complete trash
Chev Chelios she's a fine line black and gray artist a full color chest piece was totally out of her comfort zone
Who would’ve thought another scripted tv time limited show was fake!!?? Lol glad I don’t watch shows like these.
Erik Chillmonger I hear You!
At least the last bastion of reality..........World Wrestling...............is real !!
As heavily scripted WWE is nowadays, I’d take way more stock in their product than this crap.
Shocker ain't it?
The only reason I watch ink master is to find talented tattooers I could care less about the theatrics tho
I knew one of the artist that was on the show, they had mentioned how the crew was trying to spread gossip and have them talk crap about each other for drama reactions.
interesting how most of these critiques come from participants who were eliminated very early. In fact, Heather, who's critiques are mentioned multiple times was eliminated first round of the first season and her art was clearly not up to par. Not saying that some aspects of the show aren't staged, but many of the points made in this video don't make the show "fake" and many are biased opinions or just flat out incorrect.
I knew this was the case when Ryan won her season, Kelly was far and away the most talented tattooer there and Gian's master canvas was sooo much better but it was time for a female to win and they wanted to plaster the attractive female all over their brand over the talented one.
Adam Timmons dude..ryan is way better lol..compare their instagrams.
Miles Hawkins she wasn't on the day nor throughout the competition, what they've done prior/since is irrelevant in a fair competition.
Adam Timmons I’m glad to see other people agree with me on this. A female was planned to win from the start. It lead rite into the spinoff show with her and the others girls.
Gian's work was clearly superior in finale and with the bs ink master angels we know why she was put forward to win it even though she did not do so with merit
no way I watch that garbage for sure, sry IM but that was one scam too many.
Point black period Gian had the best lines I have ever seen on ink master... and he was possibly the most consistent all season long. They should have given it to him just for the amazing body of work he did... Even when he transformed the old man into a pinup for his wife in front of that car... Old skin is the hardest to work with and he killed it!
2:20 those weird challenges were not really meant to be part of the show, they were meant to see if the viewers showed an interest in any of them, to make even more armloads of money.
Still one of the realist shows out there!
More real than the Kardashians and Jersey Shore
I can tell you one thing as a canvas all three of them came in and talk to me about punk rock shows I've seen in NYC back in the day got to say they were all cool
The art is cool at least
I want to be crowned the "Stink Master".
I'll just stick to watching PornHub and be crowned "Wank Master" !!...........

Dude u know what? take the crown keep it 😂😂😂
The judges have decided... You do not have what it takes to be stink master. Now please close the toilet seat and leave the bathroom.
Unless you're tatu baby ofcourse, then you'll have another million chances.
unknown you can't steal my sunshine!!!
Paul Stanley said "There is television and there is reality. Never the two shall meet."
Great video it amazes me how many people still don't understand how TV works.... how much CZcams content is heading the same way
I don't care if it's fake..as long as the tattoos are real.. and plus everything on TV is fake.. but we still watch it..
You forgot to mention that the winner is already known between two or maybe three people before the first episode even is filmed.
I am prepared to accept this but wondered what ink master is getting out of this? I'd have thought the best TV is film everything, decide who you are going to focus the season on as it is being filmed, manipulated the competition slightly to ensure they have the dramatic moments that we associate with winners and then do the rest of the work in the editor's room. I'm not sure the value in deciding the winner beforehand when you can let them perform then start pushing the favourite half way through.
Sarah L I'm sure it has to do with what will make them the most money.
Sarah L its much much easier to film and edit video when it’s somewhat pre planned. It’s just how it is. It’s what’s done and what they are doing. It’s not speculation. At least it’s narrowed down and not 100% decided.
Known by whom?
It’s literally entertainment. They have to do what looks the best and makes the most money. If anyone thinks anything on tv is real, you are sadly mistaken.
I was a human canvas on season one episode 2.. I got my entire head tattooed. It's all smoke and mirrors.
was there anything else that was "fake" or "staged"?
Did it actually come how you wanted it?
A smoke and mirrors head tattoo sounds amazing
@@vanhalenps4 lol
Did the person really tattoo your head?
Funny how the two artists arguing about the judges playing favorites were the ones always putting out 3/10s.
I really disagree with that and looks like a lot of other people do as well.
I use to love this show until that one season where they pitted the guys against the girls.
humbledb4jesus wow, it was just a friendly alliance. Girls got to stick together in these situations because like it or not, they will always be pitted against each other and though lesser of.
I was on ink master, yes they edit. Like every reality show. I was on the show and They don’t pick everything I said. The flash challenges show how they are artists and have skill in all kinds of things.
Chronically Cassidy I was a human canvas too :)
@@carolineberb4 which season?
Lule season 7
Lule with Megan Jean Morris
@@carolineberb4 thank you
I was a canvas on season 6. Everything mentioned in this video is 100% true.
Woah your comment is so recent..
Id like to know if its true that the judges play favourites?
You mean to say you saw the legendary Marine Chris in person?
I guess the only really thing on that show is Peck’s mustache. Which is the only reason I watch it so I’m cool with it lol
rebecca molina lol I would love to see that guys closet, flannels for years
Im afraid to tell you that thats fake too... likely.
DUxMORTEM 😂fake Stache? Lol
@@CallxMexLos can you imagine? He comes on stage one episode and it just falls off or something...
still love the show. its the only "reality" show i'll watch.
What? Are you telling me that a "reality show" is actually staged ? I'm stoked! I really thought the drama was real and all tatoo artists went head-to-head in a daily basis, the only thing that I would consider fake in the show is fake tattoos, other than that everything is already well known for those who like this kind of shows, I watch it for the art... And it is awesome!
These are some really weak points. Obviously, the "down to the wire" isn't completely accurate. And I can't imagine leaving your family, being stuck in a house for months on end with strangers during a competition with a film crew around is going to bring out the best in people. People can barely hang out at a party for a single night without annoying each other. Fact is, people are really being tattooed, sometimes multiple times in one sitting, you can't fake that.
Just to point out that they film the episodes back to back, and a single episode is only two or three days. Four to six weeks is still a hefty chunk of time, but they aren't actually stuck there for months on end.
I am so excited for the next season! Cleen is my favorite contestant on the show!
If you look at the "fine print" for literally EVERY "reality" tv show/contest like this it says that the producers are the ones who ultimately choose the winners, doesn't matter if it's tattoos, cooking food, or picking a bride.
if only this was printed in size 80font on the side metro skyscrapers. Then vanderpump, survivor and jersey shore assholes would need to work a legitimate job.
I was a human canvas and the director kept time. The artists were expected to finish within the time, however, the host was edited in
I thought most of these things were obvious?
Reality shows always follow the same pattern of editing tricks
This is why I DVR it. I skip everything but the final products
Not to mention the retarded commercials
on that channel! They blast them over and, over...
The Angels spin off show is actual garbage... It's even more scripted than Ink Master.
Pariah Carey some of the angels tattoos should have lost.
Still introduces people to local artists. I think thats cool.
null object
True, but they screw over so many genuinely good artists. Every time I try to watch it now, I just end up getting pissed off.
No artist is ever under that pressure in real life. No artist is ever that rushed.
lmao i can’t believe that people say “You know it was a thing with time...” and there is no actual time limit-
There's definitely a time limit or else people who never end up with tattoos that aren't finished. My sister was a canvas on the show.
That show has too many hipsters anyway
Lol
スマッシュタイラー the brandi (or ryan? Whatever) chick and tatu baby are hot tho.
Mini Em Official What a strange, self absorbed thing to blurt out
I know on the show they made Kyle Dunbar out to be a difficult jerk. Having been tattooed by Kyle on multiple occasions he and his wife Candy who also tattoos are super nice.
That always seemed fake to me. Watching the season where he goes for Chris. Up until now he's been pretty cool, which makes me question the turn around. Am looking forward to seeing it though, so I guess I play into the hands of the people that make these shows.
Ya Nunez kind of always striked me as a dick and it made it seem like Kyle was
of course kyle wouldn't be a decent person around a client. doesn't mean he isn't a jackass
None of this suprises me , its just how reality tv is . But never the less i dig the show.
Did anybody expect anything less?
I recognise 2 of the judges and I'm assuming they both are spending more time tattooing (aka doing their job) than being on a tv show.
People will always play favorites, friends of managers will always get promoted before anybody else.
"reality" tv is 100% about bitching about the other people on the show.
Of course the time limits are bullshit, these tattoos are going into people for the rest of the their lives, enforcing a strict limit means mistakes will happen and tattoos are left half done.
Hmmm yeah, we already know this. As for judges only showing up for 5 minutes per episode........sounds like Dave’s track record for his guitar skills.
BURN!! 😂
💀💀💀💀💀
Am I the only one that thinks it's awesome that Dave nevarro is on here. He used to be the guitarist for rhcp (one hot minute) so pretty much we're watching a member of rhcp. Idk I just like thinking that it seems awesome
I don't think joining RHCP when they were already a name and getting tossed out before anyone noticed him should be impressive to most folks. I mean what the fuck, they have roadies that outlasted that clown lol.
Every single TV show, “reality” or not, is edited. Just because they edit shit in or edit shit out does not make Ink Master “fake”.
Yup I don't think it's fake cause they are real artsts too
Some of the flash challenges I thought had a lot to do with tattooing. When I draw, there’s been many times where I’ve picked up an object and used it for clarification
i knew it was scripted but i honestly didnt think the show was rigged :(
when ryan won over gian it was very clearly rigged
stopped watching after tattoo baby made it to the final 3. The judges clearly favored her even though her work was not up to par. The best talent they had was the first season. The tattoos of the final 2 guys were amazing throughout. No other season had anyone come close to that
i never saw full episodes of ink master, just those youtube compilations recently, and one thing that immediately felt weird was how almost all artists’ monologues felt more like bad acting rather than actual emotions, now i understand why
I mean, its a $100,000 show. What do you expect the challenges be?
I still believe Tommy should have won season one of ink masters.
Ikr he was my favourite
Lets also talk about all of the plagiarism and stolen art. There were so many artists from deviant art that had their work ripped off by contestants. One was a friend of mine and never got any recognition for his work that was used.
Connie Faye I don’t believe you personally but if you replied with a link to the devian art and artist who stole it, you’ll have converted me
proof?
thegothamcityqueen well I’m not going to believe something without proof or backing, am I?
Proof?
Connie Faye proof?
All reality shows are fake. Who still buys that they aren't?!
Little kinds and people with iq below room temperature
I stopped watching when they kicked Jamie off for having no tattoos
What season ?
@@boozyoldies season 2 I think
They didn't kick him out because of that. He dropped the ball and got outdone by the others.
Lol yep, this vid cen't be more accurate, I mean looking back at season 2 top 3 contestants... Sebastian over Tatu Baby SERIOUSLY????? Then there's season 1, that guy who just do black and gray and won over an over qualified Tommy Helm. Ridiculous.
poopynuggeteer the show is called ink mater, not pencil master
Tatu baby should've been gone long ago. The fuck are you on about.
mater springs
Unga Bunga I don't disagree, but if you want to call yourself ink master you can't exclude colored work either
Alice the producers have more sway than the Judges on the show.
If you thought that Dave's time warnings and the down-to-the-wire works were real, you don't understand basic production logistics.
I was initially enjoying the show. But by the end of the 4th season I really noticed all the times favoritism was shown, how the judges were letting past mistakes or bad tattoos cloud their decisions in the current competition, how the judges totally ignored the competition parameters to choose who stays or goes. I hated how the canvases actions were totally blamed on the ARTIST, I get that some of this was BS but it was crap. Finally I was tired of how negative the judges were.
Why are 90% of the clips used in this from season 8 lmao
