Digipacks

What is a digipack?

A digipack is a modern patented style case which can store more than one CD and is very beneficial to artists nowadays due to the fact that they can sell multiple products in a small compact way. Digipacks also allow space for information on the artist on the different 4-8 panels as well as many visual aesthetically pleasing images of the artist or band. To the left is a picture of a 4 and a 6 paned digipack.



Typical features of a digipack include:

• Images
• Text
• CD/DVD
• Booklet inside
• Gatefold/ book style
• Some are very colourful others can be plain.

Here are some of my favourite digipacks and albums that will inspire my work.

This is one of favourite front cover of a digipack due to the close up of image of Rihanna with her album simply spread across the bottom. Also the colours on the cover are really aesthetically pleasing, how the red lips, cheeks and hair all match. It is very simple and not complicated which makes it attractive to target audiences.

Here is another one of my favorite albums covers.  The picture look's a little bit complicated but the use of the white colour makes the image and cover classy, with the splash of red spicing the cover up a little.

The reason I choose Cher Lloyd album cover as one of my favourites is because it is a little different to some of the other album covers I usually like, but i found it inspired me. She has a very colourful background as well as bright clothing and accessories. This show's her rebellious side. 

This is my artists single cover which I do really like because we see images of him plus his actual name "Angel" as well as the title of the song "Wonderful". It is also very colourful which I think is a great feature to attract your consumer. Cheryl Cole's album is also one of my favourites due  to the simple image of herself and I really like the black and white effect on the album cover, which gives it a high class effect. Her name and album title is written at the bottom on her skin as if it is actually inked on her body like a tatoo which is a very unique effect.
