Digipak Research


For us to make a digipak that is realistic and that meets the conventions of the product, we had to complete research to provide with as much information possible.

Digipak is simply a style of packaging for a CD or DVD. It is a patented and registered trademark of AGI Media.

This style of packaging is typically a gatefold or book-like style, and is usually made of cardboard. The disk is stored inside in a plastic tray, as well as several flaps or slots used to store booklets or advertisements.


Much like a conventional CD cover, the album artwork and artist/album name are included on the front of the case, whilst the track information and barcode are included on the back of the case.

A consistent colour and graphological style is used throughout the case, with images often being repeated on the inside to create a sense of consistency. This is something we will take on board, to ensure our colour pallet and overall design style makes sense and looks professional.

  1. Dimensions? Conventions of style and content? This is thin at the moment
