Researching Designs

We researched designs for our digipak by looking at different digipaks by similar artists to the Prodigy. The conclusion we came to was that most of the album covers were graphic designs, as opposed to photographic images. The insides of the digipaks were fairly simple, letting the front cover graphic designs do the talking.

As well as using search engines to find digipaks, we also used a website called Sleevage - its a blog where different artists digipaks are displayed, and you can search for digipaks by genre, which was very useful.

'Chemical Brothers'

'Hot Chip'

'Ministry of Sound 05 Compilation'

'Adlib'

Planning the Digipak

After we had decided on the names, we then started drawing out designs, on the board and on paper, as examples of how our digipak might look:
