Digipak Research - Disclosure's Settle

The front cover of the digipak includes an image of two young boys with their faces cover with a white outline of a face. From there faces being covered it suggest to the buyer that this album is very mysterious and unique. Furthermore, this white face is used very much throughout the duo's album and tour, so it can be used to link the duo's overall brand and image together. In our digipak, we could use this idea of using a symbol through out to link the whole digipak together. It can also show the examiner that we have created an image for our band. 

Also, on the front cover of the album is the name of the duo and the title of the album. The colours used are black and white. These colours used are contrasting to each other, therefore the title and name stands out on the front cover. Furthermore, the white used for the word 'settle' makes it stand out from the rest of the front cover, as the rest of the colour scheme is quite simple and natural. On the front cover of our digipak, we could use a bright colour which contrasts to with our colour scheme on our digipak. However if our digipak is colourful we will not be able to the contesting colours because it make look a bit tacky. 

On the back cover, the designer has used the same font on the front cover as well. By doing this it links the whole digipak together. The text is also in white, like the title of the album of the front cover. By using the white colour on the back cover it shows like on the front cover that this text is very important on the digipak. In our digipak we could use the same colour on the text throughout as it will link the whole digipak together.

In addition, on the back cover the colour scheme is a very simple slivery-grey. By doing this, it causes the text on the back cover to stand out and make it the most important principle on the back cover. Furthermore, by the colour scheme being 'non flashy' it suggests to the buyer of the album that Disclosure's album is all about the music. We could use this idea of a non 'flashy' colour scheme. As the song and the band we have chosen is quite serious and meaningful. However, the song we have decided on is very dynamic so the colour scheme may have to match.
