Green day digipack analysis

here is the green day greatest hit CD digipack: as you can see this CD cover is the colour green and in the picture there is a shade of buildings, also the text is like grafiti and the font looks to be like an army font, and this shows that there is an urban / punk / rock feel to the CD cover as it fits in with most of the conventions of the genre of music which is rock.


below is a picture of the inside of the digipak and this follows the design of the front cover of the digipak as it is the same colour and most of the conventions that have been used on the cover have also been used on the inside such as the colour scheme, the text font in various places and there are also features inside of the digipak that have not been used on the cover and they are: shots of the band under where the CD goes, there is an image of a black stencil man being electrocuted and this image is also followed in the CD's, there are images of the bands other CD albums and there are finally CD trays/holders.
here is a list of what conventions this digipak follows; the band are shows in the digipak, the name of the band is shown on the front cover, list of the songs and other extras are listed on the back of the digipak, there is a brief and basic description of the band inside the digipak, there are reviews of that album inside the digipak, the design suits the genre of music, the colour scheme suites both the bands name and the genre of music, the font of the text suites the rock genre, there are pictures of previous CD album covers, the company that made the digipak has put their logo on, the artists in the portraits of them look like they are rock stars.

after looking at this digipak I have decided that it would be best if I take some of what I think are the best ideas for making a digipak from the this pre-existing digipak and then use some of the elements for when I and making our Digipak draft and final version.
