DIGIPACK conventions/influences

 IN THIS POST:

  • What is a Digipak
  • Digipak general conventions
  • Artist logo/Branding

    DIGIPACK by SASHA

    Key takeaways: 

    The Digipack is distinct from a jewel case

    Jewel case is plastic and rectangular. Digipaks make the CD look professional without the bulk of a plastic jewel case.  

    The square shape of the Digipack replicates vinyl (Retromania), opening up the market to an older audience

    It’s more collectible and often has special/limited/collectors edition/s. 

    They are lighter and thinner, so retailers/distributors like them: cheaper to transport, more can fit on shelves

    Often feature inserts: most commonly lyric booklets

    Usually a relationship between front + rear panel 

    Often a continued theme in inner panels

    Minimum 4 panels - but there are many fold-out variations
