This document describes several music digipaks for various artists including Adele, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Jessie J. It provides details on the front and back cover designs, images used, song listings, and color coordination across the different elements. Common elements described include close-up or full-length images of the artist, differentiation in font styles for the artist and album names, inclusion of record label logos, and consistency in color schemes between the cover, disc, and internal packaging.

1. This is the front cover to a digipak
for Adele’s single, Skyfall. It
features an image of the artist
herself, as well as Daniel Craig as
he is James Bond. He is included
as this song is the theme song for
the film Skyfall.
This is why the common James
bond logo is included.
This is the back
cover of the single.
This includes
information on the
tracks which are
included. As well
as the different
companies
included, such as
the music
companies also
the film
production
companies. It also
includes
information
The image of the
actual cd disc is the
same to the front
cover to the digipak.

2. The front cover of Taylor Swift’s digipak shows and informs the audience of the album's name. Also there is a mid
shot of the artist herself in order to raise awareness and emphasize that it is her album. Also the font in the front
cover of the digipak is slightly different, as the name of the album 'Fearless' and name of the name of the artist
'Taylor Swift'. These two fonts are used throughout the digipak,, such as on the disc itself and the back cover of it.
Unlike the Adele digipak this Taylor swift one includes 3 different images on the front cover, disc and back cover. It
has the record company logo included in the disc.
I like how the back cover is another mid shot of Taylor Swift, which is a shot taken from the video ‘Love story’. This
shows that we can include images from our music videos and use on our digipak. Also on the back it includes a list
of all the other songs included in the album. As some digipaks are for singles but there are also album digipak.
The stem of the digipak also blends in with the back cover and states the artist and album name. However there is
different font used on the stem, non the less the colours remain similar.

3. The front cover for this digipak is a
close up of the artist. The low-key
lighting and vintage effect of this shot
allows the album to look more artistic
to enable audience attraction. The
image itself is quite dull however the
colour of Taylor’s lips adds a sense of
colour to the digipak.
The titles are also different as the
album name differs to the artist name
in terms of colour and font. The title
‘RED’ also compliments the image as
Taylor is wearing red lipstick.
The back cover of this digipak uses a duplicate
image as the front cover, however it had a red
effect on top of the image which removes the
vintage/artistic look. The colours of the album cover
is continuous as red and white font is used in both
back cover and the cd. The colour red can connate
love or danger. However I think because its red and
white it could show a sense of love and purity
within the songs in the album.
There is also a list of the songs in the album which is
commonly used in digipaks.
The cd disc is colour coordinated to the rest of the
digipak, and includes the name
and artist of the digipak.

4. The back cover uses another close
up of Adele looking at the camera.
The edit of the image still remains
the same to the front cover as it is
black and white, dull with
shadows, she has also blended into
the dark background. An advantage
of this is it allows the list of songs
to stand out, as it is in white font.
This digipak also includes a
barcode which is different to the
previous ones I have researched.
The front cover of this
digipak uses a close shot of
Adele posing. It uses lowkey lighting with a black
and white effect. This may
be showing the audience
the pace and type of
songs included, such as
slow ballads. Also the title
of the album states the
artist’s and the album
name ’21’. This is written
in different colour to the
name of the artist,
however the font remains
the same. This may be to
add a sense of colour to
the dull, lifeless black and
white image. However the
disc of this digipak is in
colour co-ordination to the
album cover

5. This is a digipak to Rihanna’s album ‘Loud’.
This has a booklet included inside which is
a high angle long shot of the artist posing.
It is spread out into 3 different sections as
the right and left side of the booklet have
space for cd discs to be inserted.
The image used in this booklet uses
fluorescent colours such as red, in the roses
and the colour of the artist’s hair. This is
part of the mise-en-scene and these factors
may connote love, and passion. The two
discs in this digipak are the inside of a
cream/peach coloured rose. This is yet
again colour co-ordinated as it matches to
the top and dress Rihanna is wearing in the
long shot.
The front and back cover of this digipak
uses the exact same image and which as a
close shot of the artist posing. The main
colour used in this digipak is red and skin
tone/ nude colours. Therefore the front
cover colours are correlated throughout
the album. The font used in the digipak is
white font this is used to make the titles
stand out from the image.

6. This digipak is from the artist Katy Perry.
Similarly to Rihanna’s digipak, this one has a
3 sectioned folded booklet, but with no
extra front and back cover. However this
booklet included 2 different images rather
than one long shot. This digipak has a close
up of the artist posing in what looks to be
pink clouds or candy floss on the right hand
side. The other 2 section is one long shot of
Katy in the same location but at different
angle. Where she is looking quite
provocative in order to gain the male
audience attraction. This image seems to
be the front cover for this digipak.
These images used are from the music
video ‘California girls’ which perhaps is
included in the album itself. In the middle of
this digipak there is a list of the songs in the
cd. This is the back cover of the digipak.
There no title used in this digipak cover as audience will already be aware
of the album, as the images used are referenced/related to the California
girls music video. However the name ‘teenage dreams is included in the
inclusive booklet provided in this digipak
However as there are 2 different cd’s there
is also information on what is included in
each cd. The colour theme are similar as
shades of blue and pink are being used.
This is important mise en scene. As the
video from California girls itself references
a lot of confectionary, the disc itself have
been transformed to look like food, such as
the hard boiled sweet and sprinkled donut.
There also seems to be a booklet included
inside of this digipak, this is mid/long shot
of the artist next to other props, such as
cakes.

7. This is a digipak to the single ‘Nobody’s
Perfect’, by Jessie J. The front cover of
the digipak is a long shot of the artist
posing. The mise-en –scene in her
costume allows the artist go gain a male
demographic audience. Also the location
used in this shot is referred to the
Nobody’s Perfect music video. This
shows that the artist already may have
an audience who will purchase the single
as the music video and song has already
gained an audience. Similar to other
digipaks researched the artist’s name
tends to differentiate with the font of the
song/album title.
The back cover of the digipaks shows a
list of the songs included in the cd. This
is different to other album digipaks, as
this is for a single alone. Therefore these
digipak include other versions to the
song, such as acoustic versions etc.
Also the cd disc I no image, instead it has
the name of the artist, in the same font
used on the front cover. This digipak also
looks to be a cardboard version, as
other digipaks I have researched have
been plastic.
