DIGIPACK



FEEDBACK FOR THE MAGAZINE COVER

MAGAZINE PLANNING


Conventional magazine adverts tend to use the album cover artwork, this builds consumer recognition of the item being promoted - the album. Therefore I will follow the convention and use a variation of my digipak front cover to maintain continuity.


Other conventions can include:
  • record label information
  • album release date
  • list of hit singles
  • band website details
  • press reviews
A new convention across a wide platform of medium is to include a qr code - this clever piece of technology allows anyone who owns a smartphone to scan this 'logo' which will feed them to further information about the subject.

I will need to use the following images when constructing my cover:

SONY RECORDS:

COLUMBIA RECORDS:
