Results

After printing off the sheet and discussing with peers, Paper Daisy and Thinking of Betty were the most popular. Due to the name of the band being Paper Vibes, Paper Daisy seemed like the best option.


The font used for the rest of the digipak is called Les Mousqeutaires it is a bold text but with curly edges (a bit like Thinking of Betty) making it elegant and following the stereotypical 'girly' image of a girl band.

Codes and Conventions of Ancillary Texts

Codes and Conventions of a cover of a digipak














Digipaks became increasingly popular in the early 2000's due to the popularity of audiences being able to hold the CD in a special packaging. They would also include some extra information, exclusive promos and lyrics with the CD.
  • A 4 panel or 6 panel digipak are available the 4 paneled one being the most popular.
  • There is a consistent theme of colour, imagery and text throughout the package.
  • Outer material of a digipak is cardboard with the plastic tray holding the CD inside and therefore the outer packaging is more likely to wear than the optical disc packaging which is all plastic.
  • Front panel displays name of artist/band and title of the album
  • International DVD logos appear on the spine and the back panel alongside the record label logo and other corporate organisation
  • Track listing is printed on the back panel
  • Copyright and regional information is on the edge of the CD/DVD

Audience Feedback of First Edit

  • Footage changes lighting throughout in the same locations when it should be consistent, too dark
  • Teacher Feedback:
