Digipak

Being asked to create a digipak for our music video so here are a few examples and analysis to them. It is important to analyse a few digipaks in order to get an idea about what the general layout etc is for our genre. If wewere to look at other genres then it would not suit our song choice. Here are the examples.

Here is Rihannas digipak from her 'Loud' Album, as you can see it is a close up of her face with her eyes turnt away from the camera, I have looked at a few examples and they all seem to be of the artist themselves, this seems to be consistent throughout digipaks of our chosen genre. The red lipstick matches the red hair which attracts the audiences attention, the picture of rihanna is larger than the actual name of the album, so perhaps the artist is aiming to depend on her image rather than the album title.

This is Lady Gaga's album cover for 'The Fame' the album picture is overpowered by her face and sunglasses, the name of the album is only small and painted on her sunglasses. It seems that most pop digipaks have actual close ups of the artists, and the name of the album never seems to be as prominent. Our group will take this into consideration when thinking of our digipak.
