2. What is a Digipak ?
As part of the specification we are going to be producing
promotional material to go with our music video, this will consist
of a magazine cover and a four-sided album cover.
Digipackare a type of CD packaging, mostly made out of card or
plastic material. They come in various designs, some may house more
than one CD, they can flip open like a book or it can have three
parts, and so that one portion of the packaging opens to the right
and one to the left with the CD positioned in the centre. Usually,
the portion of the Digipackthat holds the CD is made of plastic
like a traditional jewel case CD the plastic part is simply
attached to the paper background.
3. Example of a 4 panel Digipack
This is a 4 sided Digipackfor BeyoncesI Am Sasha Fierce album
It is paperboard but is held in a plastic case itself. The design
is quite simplistic, the 1st front cover panel is an image of
herself and 2nd panel it just says Beyonce as seen. Similarly on
the 3rd panel written again is Beyoncewhere the CD is placed on top
of, and on the back 4th panel is another image of Beyoncewith a
list of songs. I think the design fits in very well with her genre
of music, being R&B/Pop. The first panel appears to be very
naturalistic, showing Beyoncein black on white, on a beach (this
image is very common in her music videos) whereas you see more of a
glamorous side to her on the last panel, where she is dressed up,
wearing more makeup and wearing her iconic glove which is also
referred to in many of her music videos.
