Muse digipack analysis

Here is the Muse greatest hits digipak: and as you can see the design of the digipak is based around a cartoon abstract design with a variety of lines and circles and although this design does not seem like it suits the genre of music, the colours that are used do fit in with the genre of music as they are all dark and there are then bursts of colours that are dotted around the cover. The images that are on the digipak cover are: a woman that is white with some elements of red and pink, white lines, a red picture of palm trees and then there is the band’s name and logo dotted around and this is in white.

As you can see it the picture above there are some parts of the inside of the digipak showing and the design of the inside looks like it follows the design on the exterior of the digipak and this is shown by the lines continuing from where they end on the exterior of the digipak. The CD that is in the digipak is also following the colours and some aspects of the design as the CD is black with the band name on and there are red and white circles on the disk near the middle.

Here is a list of all of the conventions that the digipak follows: 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 band’s name and the genre of music, the font of the text suites the rock genre, the company that has made the digipak have their logo and name on the digipak and the digipak has a simple design.

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.
