Post-Production: Final CD Digipak research

As we are coming to the end of creating and further developing our products, our teacher Phil produced our last opportunity of research and inspiration for our CD Digipak. For instance, he brought in several various physical copies of CD Digipaks for us to browse through and hopefully take motivational inspiration from, considering the layout, design and more.

This was beneficial as it allowed us to compare our created Digipak with real one’s in which we were fond of. It also helped us to consider any finalising changes or alters we wish to make before finishing. We took on board, the successful results were creating’s which were clear, simple, creative and showed aspects about the genre and the artist. Therefore, we understand we need to show ideas of youth and rebellion in a visually pleasing but effective, clear and simple way.

From viewing the several covers and Digipaks, as a group we realised that our font used on our track list was too big and could possibly be made smaller for a more effective look and finish. We felt this alter was necessary and crucial as the most successful Digipaks consisted of smaller scaled writing. Similar to this, we were all fond of the writing presented on the spine as it gives a clearer insight and direction into our artist, as well as looking visually better. For instance, we will hugely consider including the name of our artist or the album name down the spine.
