CONVENTIONS OF A DIGIPACK

TYPICAL PACKAGING The Digipack will be designed into a book shaped form, making it easy and accessible. The front cover containing the main image of the artist/ people/ abstract design. The inside containing a poster/card, something extra for the listeners. On the inside will also contain the disc and on the back of the cover will be a track list of the CD, making it clear to the buyers what songs are on the cd. (I’ve added some examples on the slide)

FRONT OF THE DIGIPACK The front cover an album is the most important aspect of an album (besides the music) as it’s what captures the audiences eye when buying it. The front cover usually has a bold image and title representing the artist. However some artists subvert from the conforming typical image of the artist an use pieces of art, of images that they feel represent the music on in the album.

INSIDE THE DIGIPACK The inside of the did pack will contain a booklet/ extra info about the album enclosing information on the band/ picture of the band/ lyrics/message to the fans/messages behind the music. Each artist/ band varies on what they want to put out there to their fans. Inside also is the actual CD held in by a plastic grip in the centre.

BACK OF THE DIGIPACK The back of the album usually contains the track list to the cd.
