The Script ‘Science and Faith’ digipak analysis.

The colour scheme of the digipak is very light and simple, therefore making it stand out as it is bright and making it known that the music is very calming and mellow just like the personality of the band and the genre of music they play.

On the front cover there are two hands holding each other, one is male and one is female. This hand holding can have connotations of the message the album is trying to give out which is the feeling of love or friendship. An example of this in their songs is the song Nothing.

The band name is in bold, black colours which due to the light background it is planted on it stands out and draws your attention towards it. The font is also very simple and smooth which reflects the simplicity of the digipak and the genre of music that they play.

The title of the album is ‘Science and Faith’, these are two contrasting things as they both contradict what each of them are trying to prove. This could represent the feel of the song as some of the songs show that the singer may be confused and doesn’t know what to believe due to the complicated lover situation he is in.

The two hands on the front are now palm on palm which is more intimate romantically than the front cover photo, therefore connoting more of a feeling of love than friendship which further reflects the song names and inner meanings.

They have their record label in the bottom corner which is Sony Music.

Their website is in the top left corner of the cover to promote it to their listeners.

The names of the songs give the overall feeling of the album which is the feeling of love and relationships, this can be reflected by the colour scheme and the main pictures of album.

The colour scheme of their font continues throughout the album to make sure that all the important information stands out in relation to the background.

The colour scheme for the CD differs to the outside of the album as it is a darker colour scheme and gives it a fiery feel to the album.

The yellow/orange symbol in the middle is the symbol for an isotope usually used in science which links to the name of the album of ‘Science and Faith’.

The names of the songs are around the edges of the CD which gives the CD a nice border and shows the listener what songs are on in which order.

The colour of the font is white and that is a good contrasting colour for the CD as it makes the track names stand out on the edges.

The CD holder background continues the bright background that the front and back cover have, it also continues the same theme of the hands.

There are three hands in the centre forming a triangle, this holding of the wrists can connote a level of friendship as some people when they greet their friends grab the wrists and bring themselves in towards the other.

The three hands could represent the hands of the band members which could be used to signal their strength of friendship.

The three hands in the centre could also represent a love triangle as the theme of love is signified throughout the album, this could match the feeling of confusion I mentioned in the third slide about the ‘Science and Faith’ confusion.

In the booklet of the album it shows many pictures of the band together, they are dressed in very bland and relaxed clothing which reflects the nature of the band.

There is a use of symbols throughout the booklet which are to do with religion/faith as they are rune symbols. This shows the contrast between ‘Science and Faith’ which is present on most of the digipak.

The bright font colour of the symbols are the same as the bright colours of the isotope on the CD, which could represent the similarities between ‘Science and Faith’
