After collating my first test shots for my blog post having decided on my topic of Town in the community. I had a think about what the main focus could be and what could move the story along and decided that the club’s slogan of ‘Proud to be Town’ is what I should focus on. This is because I wanted to get across what it really means to support the club. From the men’s, women’s, and youth development work the club do, I wanted to keep the message consistent that Harrogate Town fans should be and are proud to support their club due to all the good work they do off the pitch and behind the scenes.
So, with the first two images below I took a picture of the slogan in the bar area at the stadium to use as the opening image of my story to set the scene as the slogan conveys what I want to get across to the reader. As for the second image, I wanted a fan image with the slogan to show that they are in fact ‘Proud to be Town’ and encapsulate the sense of community at the club.
The third image I took to show Harrogate Town’s commitment to local initiatives which they have been all season by wearing t-shirts in the warm-up supporting charities. I thought it was a good touch capturing the player looking away and having the QR code visible so that the reader can actually interact with the image and not just simply scroll past it.
