This digipak contains two CDs and one DVD from the band Oasis. The cover features a room with circus props and toys, though it is unclear if it belongs to a man or woman. The band's name is in the upper left corner in black and white. The analyzing found that the cover image and text were not perfectly suited. It was also noted that the album title was not visible. The simple imagery was thought to indicate an indie rock album focused on the music rather than the singers. The layout of including a removable lyric book was praised as convenient. The analysis concluded images and text should be better related and identification of the album and band should be clearer.
Digipak analysis
- 1. Digipak Analysis This is the digipak of Oasis Stop The Clock which contain two CDs and one DVD. The digipak cover image is a part someones room, the wardrobe and disk with circus stuffs onsuch as the puppet, and a poster of two dartboards. We cannot tell is belong to a man or a women, because there is males shoes but toys at the same time which is creative and excite audiences curiosity. The name of the band is one the upper left corner of the cover with black and white color whichis easily discriminate and outstanding. Idont think the image and the text is perfect suitable, the reason of this is those two features are two different styles. The name of the band looks like a company and it looks like it been put in a wrong place. In the cover image, we cannot see the name of the album, it will make people confuse when they looking for the album. The image is used is not the photo of the singers, from this we could know the sealing points of this album is the music not the singer(s). Hence we have a idea of the type of music of this album, it could be an indie rock album. The label of the name of the band is a signifier exclusive to the band that could remind audience their band Oasis.
- 2. This is the CDs and DVD. The image using on the CD disk are the two dartboardon the cover of the album. The image on the DVD is anartistic effect photo of a room that looks like someone looking from the door viewer, gave us an idea this picture may be is a scene of the music video. The way putting the lyric book is the greatest of this digipak. The book is in the first part, it is sprit,people could take it off from the digipak which is really convenient and interesting. By analyzingthisdigipak, I learned that for our digipakwe need to make sure the images and text must be related. We will use the same type of image for our cover and the disk. Our digipaks images will be simple which is a typicalfeature of the album of indie rock. The text we will use might not be similar to the name of our singer, but it might be the same style of the singer used before, therefore when people look at it, they may know this is the album from this singer. The name of the singer will be on one of the corner where people could find it quickly. We will put the name of the album and the name of our singer on the side of the album for audience easily looking for.As most of the album, we will put the name of our song on the back of the digipak.
