Digipak Research

What is a Digipak?
Definition;

A Digipak is a type of CD packaging made out of card stock or other heavy paper/cardboard material. Digipaks are able to flip open like a book, or be in three parts, so that one portion of the packaging can open to the right and one to the left, with the CD located in the centre portion.

For our group to create our Digipak we had to consider the following:

  • Logo
  • Font Styles
  • Layout
  • Images
  • What information to include

Conventions:
When looking through various Digipaks, I noticed some conventions of the product, that are useful information when you have to create your own.

1. It had either 4 or 6 panels.
2. A main image was placed on the front either being a logo, symbol or image to respesent the artist.
3. A track list on the back
4. Logo of the production company
5. Barcode
6. Name of the album & artist
7. Same theme running throughout digipak
