Digi-Pak Research

A Digipak typically consists of a gatefold/book style paperboard or card stock outer binding.  It has one or more plastic trays which can hold a CD/DVD attached to the inside. The Digipak are the alternative to jewel cases used by major record companies.

A Digipak s a form of promotion; to encourage fans to buy the Digipak the features of a digipak are lyrics sheets, behind the scenes, photo shoots and other exclusives for the fan.

The advert that accompanies the Digipak also needs to be appealing to the fan, as this might be the only thing they see before purchasing their physical copy, for example if buying online. There needs to be a recurring aesthetical theme between the Digipak and it adverts, as well as between both these tings and the music video itself.


These are example of the design templates of some Digipaks to visually see:
