Research on Digipak Task

I have been searching for a variety of digipaks and I have seen how many different designs there are. I have focused mainly on the ones that have two or three slots as we will not have the time or materials to do more than this, but with the time that we have we are planning to make our design great. Here are a few designs that I have been looking at:


I have analysed this design over and over and the design is brilliant and the colours really grab your attention. This design is, unfortunately, to difficult and time consuming to make as I personally think that this design would be a great example as it has amazing colours, is four folding, has a list of the songs, a small briefing and much more. I especially like the way that they have formed and combined two of the fold outs to create one image as this shows that they have thought thoroughly on how they wanted to design this Digipak.


This Digipak is simple, but yet so effective. It has just two fold outs, one fold out for the CD and the other side is a design of the inside of a car. From this picture you can't really tell who the artist is or anything but, the design tells me that the songs are either fast and adrenaline rushing or music with a beat, but lyrics are to do with a type of motor vehicle or pop rock.

This 3-sleeved digipak is a more complicated design than the 4-sleeved, but not a simple as the 2-sleeved. Although this isn't the simplest idea, it is however the best, in my opinion. The reason I think this is the best digipak is because this will show that we've put a lot of effort into it, the digipak shouldn't take forever to complete and it will show that we are trying our best and are trying to manage our time well. This task that we have to complete, contributes towards our coursework grade and therefore we are going to put all of our effort into our coursework, into the short amount of time that we have. Within this 3-sleeved digipak, we can contain images of the band, use and create images from the lyrics that are sung and also, we can have a colour to represent the mood of the song.
