Our imagery heroes our players and celebrates our passionate community.
This is a key way we can show our personality, be that at our shows or on a shoot.
Studio photography is a great opportunity to capture our players’ distinct personalities. Follow these principles to create photographs that show our players looking cool AF.
At events we get the camera amongst the action, photographing players and fans through the highs and lows. We capture the suspense and drama when the teams and fans come together as one.
As well as showing the players and fans at our events, it is important to celebrate the scale and drama of the event as a whole.
We can treat photography with colour tones from our core and accent palette to make them more harmonious with other elements in our identity. This is used when we need to place typography over the top of imagery.
Follow this process to treat images:
Adjust curves so the image is bright with good contrast.
Add a Colour Fill layer using either LEC Black, Orange or Teal.
Set the opacity to 100% ‘Colour’.
Add another Colour Fill layer of the same colour.
Set the opacity to 50% ‘Normal’.
