We looked at different Digipak templates and found the one below on Google images:
When researching Digipaks, we found several conventions that we thought were important:
- There is usually a continuous theme that runs throughout. This is usually done through colours, fonts and people.
- The Front Cover usually has a photograph of the artist to represent the album. The photo usually takes up a large proportion of the panel.
- The Front Cover is where the album title and artists name is clearly displayed.
- The Back Cover is where the songs contained are the album are displayed as well as the bar code.
- The Inside Panels is where the CD is as well as other inside panels which usually display other photographs of the artist, images of people of objects that relate to the album, lyrics.
- The Inside Panels usually continue the ongoing theme that occurs in the DigiPak.
- The CD cover is usually quite simplistic and usually contains either the artists name or the album name, if not both.

Amber edited this image, changing the colour of my hair gradually and upped the contrast of the
surroundings. She also edited this in order to make my eyes stand out more by brightening the
blue and by darkening my make up.
