Digipack analysis outside





Outside of the digipack
Codes and conventions
This digipack follows many codes and convention such as an adult advisory sticker like most albums with explicit content. The front of the C.D cover has the name of the artists like most albums/digipacks do. The album also has the name of the album on the cover like other albums/digipacks do as it makes the album stand out as an individual product. On the back of the digipack it has the name of the Songs on it as it gives the audience an indication of what type of genre or album this is also what songs are on there like most C.D’s do. There is also copyright information on the back of the digipack this is a lot of information about the C.D’s producers and distributers like most C.D’s do. Another code and convention is the fact there is a bar code on the back of the digipack. One of the codes and convention the digipack defies is that the artists are not on the C.D this shows that the artist is big enough for us to automatically know who they are. The digipack also follows the code and conventions of having the name of the artist on the side of it.

Description
The C.D has a very unique design on the front as it looks like graffiti it does not have a photo of the artists it also would attract a potential buyer of the C.D as it stands out more and is different the design looks as if has been sprayed on a wall as the background of the C.D looks like some sort of wall. The top left of the C.D has a MTV logo on it this could mean that they ever distributed it or they sponsoring it, I think more people would be attracted to this C.D if they saw this look. The name of the C.D is collision course indicating that the two artists ever clash or collide which makes the album sound unique. Also on the back of the C.D it looks as if Linkin parks name looks as if it has been sprayed on which works with the look of the rest of the album. On the spine of the C.D you can see the Artists name like you would on the other albums which may attract people. Another thing to do with this graffiti art look the album are going for the names of the songs looks like they have been written on a white part of graffiti almost as if they are graffiti as well. The adult advisory sticker on the album looks out of place on the albums graffiti look it makes the album almost look a bit weird as if it was me I would try and make a graffiti version to keep with the albums look.
