Ahead of the Final Round, the Top 12 most outstanding contestants of the DTU 2026 MC Talent Search competition have officially embarked on an intensive series of preparatory activities. More than just a playground, this is a professional "training ground" where these young talents are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to shine on a major stage.

For an MC, appearance and personal style constitute the primary "brand identity." Understanding this well, the Organizing Committee collaborated with reputable partners to bring about a comprehensive transformation for the contestants.

Early in the process, the Top 12 took part in a professional individual profile photoshoot at Hang Đôi Studio. Within artistically crafted frames, the contestants not only showcased their youthful beauty but also expressed their unique "I" — an essential quality of a confident MC.

Concurrently, to enhance their confidence before the camera, the contestants attended transformative sessions with Vyna Makeup Artist & Academy. Here, they were guided in personal makeup techniques to accentuate their refined features and downplay imperfections, ensuring they always appear at their best.

Notably, the Rồng Tiên Sa Academy delivered in-depth training sessions on personal branding. These helped each contestant define an image direction suitable for their own unique style — from attire to demeanour — creating consistency and professionalism in the eyes of the audience.

If appearance attracts attention, then skills and voice are the keys to holding it. Throughout the preparatory activities, the Top 12 were put to the test through practical lessons. During a training session at ABC Entertainment, the contestants underwent a fundamental reconstruction of their thinking regarding confidence. Exercises focused on body language, commanding stage space, and audience interaction skills helped them completely shed their initial shyness.

The Top 12 also received direct vocal training from BiFlash Academy. Beyond clear pronunciation, they learned how to infuse emotion into each word, how to adjust rhythm and vocal tone appropriately for different program contexts. For an MC, voice is the soul of the performance, and the invaluable knowledge gained from BiFlash Academy has greatly enhanced the contestants' confidence when holding the microphone.

The Final Round of the "DTU 2026 MC Talent Search" competition will officially take place on the afternoon of May 10, 2026. This will be the stage where the Top 12 showcase everything they have learned, affirming the dynamism, confidence, and potential of the young Duy Tan student generation. Let us look forward to the contestants' "explosive" performances in the upcoming final night and do not forget to come and cheer for our "golden faces"!
