Digipak Layouts

All digipak styles tend to be quite similar, as in you open it up and the cd is inside, but some of them have little twists like this Oasis album. Layouts such as this one, make it more interesting for the audience to look at. It includes extra things that the audience can look at, whether that be pictures of the band or lyrics, or even just words that the band has said. If you've made an album though, I think it gives the audience a reward having bought the album, if theres something a little bit different to the average digipak layout.

A layout that caught my eye, and one which I found interesting was this one, I'm not sure who the artist is, but it has different compartments and allows the audience to look through it when listning to the album. Read about the history of the band that they're listning to and whose music they admire.

They help promote the band and their songs, some albums include pull out posters promoting the band further. Some digipaks also include a DVD of the artists live at gigs, and if they really want to promote they might even include stickers. Usually a bands digipak would have a recognizable style so that the audience would instantly know who they were, sometimes before even looking at the name.

If you were to construct a layout this would be the most typical common design.
