Digipak - What is one?

A digipak is a style of CD (compact disk) packaging. The main type, and the one i will be choosing consists of a six page booklet, that accompanies the release and sale of an album/single. it is important to produce a good one because it has on it:

• Front cover - This is the main selling point of the album. Has the tittle and band name, usually with a picture of the band or maybe a specially produced picture that is to do with the release (front page)
• A contents page - This is of all the songs on the CD and what order they are on (usually back page)
• The other content can vary from what ideology the band has. Can range from lyrics to the songs to just pictures that relate to songs on the CD

In the next few posts i am going to explore some of the different Digipak releases, showing different styles and what i can take from these. I will eventually plan my own and then create it to go with my Music Video/song.
