AMBER - Digipak Research 4


Although Oasis are a band that does not fit into the genre that I am working in, I still really liked the styled of this Digipak so I decided to look into it. Oasis are an English Rock band and their Digipak really reflects their genre, this is because on the front cover we see a guitar. Rock is all about the love for music and their instruments, therefore a guitar is an instrument that is always used in Rock music and featuring it gives a clear connection so that as soon as the consumer sees it, they will instantly be able to tell which genre it's from.

This is a 6 paneled Digipak with a front and back cover, a disc inside, and the rest of the panels have pictures and further information inside. The colour scheme is kind of 2 different shades of orangey brown, with hints of black and white in it; this is because the guitar is an orangey brown colour, therefore the rest of the Digipak revolves around similar colours. On the back cover we see a discrete picture of a guitar, it is from a completely different angle as the picture on the front, however it still gives a sleek connection between these two panels. The colourings are different on the front and back covers, but they are not extremely different as the clear connection still works; the text remains the same colours as well. The disc inside is white and also features the track list on it. I really like the idea of having 6 panels, as one is able to add more information about the artist so the audience get more for their money. I will look into 6 paneled Digipak's further as using 6 panels is something I am interested in doing.
