Other Digi Packs

This is The Kooks' most famous album with three very popular singles. This means that the digipak had to make a good initial and lasting impression. It is pretty abstract design on the whole. The front and back covers less so, which is just greyscale pictures of the band playing with instruments. But when you open up the case, you find another picture of the band on the left, with a red banner through them and on the left is a bright red CD with bold, capitalised letters on them, the artist and album title separated by font colour. The inside back cover is a slideshow of different situations. This is for comedy value mostly, and is appealing to the eye, so the person looking will be interested to see what is in each box, and how the story develops. This is ideally the sort of cover I would be happy with as my final design, a few band/artist photos, with some editing and abstractness on the side.

The common conventions of a digipak, similar to an album, will include

• Artist/band name, on the front cover and spine 
• Photography or graphic imagery, of the band or design - visually attract their audience. 
• Recurring theme of colours and imagery throughout the digipak. 
• Track listing on the back panel. 
• Disc in tray, or a slot between panels. 
• Barcode and logos on the back cover. 
• Possibly a 'Special Edition' sticker.
