Idea development

Taking inspiration from the pranks played by the crowd at Harvard football games I decided to create something different to a flag which was going to involve the crowd more. After watching the film Drumline and looking into marching band outfits I decided to make my project focus around their headwear. After doing some research I found out this was called a Shako and was originally a military hat. Harvard’s band don’t wear these however I think it is very stereotypical of what a band would wear therefore is fitting. 


After a lot of consideration I decided to make a guide on how to make a shako, the guide would be given out at one of the college football matches and give step by step instructions on how to make your own shako. The leaflet will then encourage the supporters to wear theirs to the next game. Not only is this funny and relates to the pranks/ silly things the members of the crowd do it also shows support directly to the band not just the football players.
