Digipaks

A digipak is usually a patented style of CD packaging, and is a registered trademark of AGI-Shorewood, an Atlas Holdings LLC company. They are structured like a book therefore gate-folded with either four, six or eight panels. They usually contain a list of track and an extra booklet which contains lyrics, biography and a list of up coming events. The main key elements of a digipak are the text and the pictorial elements.

Digipaks are generally for an older generation who do not use technology as much as the younger generation. They are also for true fans who like to have a hard copy for their collection and use. 

MY DIGIPAK IDEAS

To the left is our planning for our digipak. We want a four panel digipak and may do a limited edition pack too. I am currently in the process of editing some photos together to see what works and what doesn't. When we were creating the designs for the digipak we started off with four headings which were colour, ideas, conventions and star image, once we had come up with all these ideas it was quite simple to come up with ideas for the digipak.
