Digipak analysis

Disk


This is the disk for this album, it had much the same colours on as the front cover of the digipak, this creates continuity and further expresses the artists feelings and what the song is about to the audience. At the bottom of the disk there is the logo and name of the record company that have produced this album, this shows that this is a certified disk and lets the audience know what record company have produced this album, allowing them to research them if needed and show they are a certfied artist. The colour purple connotates peace and a sense of calm, this emphasises the lyrice and message sent out by the artist in the album.



Inside of album


This is the inside of the digipak of for this album; the style is very similar to that of the front cover and CD. The same style has been used, again to create continuity throughout the album. The text on the inside of this digipak is advise from Taylor swift, this expresses her feelings and what advice she has for her audience. This makes her audience feel closer to her and shows she cares for them and thanks them for them being fans and buying her album.







In order to plan for my CD cover for my digipak, I have done a mood board in order to make me aware of the different colours, fonts and designs used.

All of the CDs I have used in my mood board are of the same or a similar genre of which my artist sings, this means I can get an accurate idea on what artists in the industry use; the colours, layouts and what they include on the CD. My mood board shows that the majority of the CDs are very simple and have minmal writing on. The main feature of the CD is often the artists name. On every single one of these CDs except 3; Bruno Mars (top left), The Script's  and Kate Nash's, the artists name has been put in a very large font and is the main feature of the disk. The disk has been made to link with the lyrics of the song. For example, Bruno Mars disk is very simple and the only thing on it is an image of a cartoon man, this links with his song which I have also analysed. The colours used on these disks are very contrasting to one and other, they have often used more than one colour in order to make certain things stand out.
