DigiPack - Researching Rock Band's Digipack's


For Biffy Clyro's single "Mountains" includes a piece of artwork - this is an option for when I create the album cover of Folding Stars. However, I need to be consistent when creating all sides of my Digipack and to have an piece of my artwork for the front and pictures for the other sides would be inconsistent and not work. Therefore, I am predicting that I shall be using photographs in my DigiPack.


Alternatively I could take a cover photograph such as this (Only Revolutions) where I would be able to go out and direct the composition of a picture and potentially edit it.



The Beatles - The white album



As well as being one of the bravest album covers of all time this is an album cover that uses clear iconic meaning as the album name is the white album and the album cover is pure white. Therefore I could use this as an idea for my DigiPack where I would take the name of the single (Folding Stars) and create a literal cover of a someone folding some kind of star.




Furthermore, I do like the cover of the single "Let it be" by the Beatles. The simple layout shows each band member - something that is important in the rock genre. As my three band members are the main focus of my music video (for the majority) I may use this cover as inspiration.
I would certainly like to create a Digipack which is inspired and aesthetically similar to an existing famous one, such as these:
