Digipak Feedback

After producing our first draft of the digipak, we received some feedback on ways in which we can improve it and also details that people liked about it.

Some positives of the digipak were: 

  • Colour scheme works with the images on the digipak although the top left and top right pictures are too empty
  • Enough representation of the artist
  • Level 3 
  • Colour scheme is good as it all links 
  • The rainbow is used on all of the panels which is subtle but effective and makes them link
  • Level 3 - 8 marks
  • Like the images used as it fits with the genre and the artists image
  • The dark image used shows us clearly what genre they are trying to portray as a lot of rap music is dark and sinister
  • Front cover and song list is good 
  • Whole digipak is a strong theme and artist genre is clear 
  • 6 marks - 1/3 of your digipak is a 9 but others let it down
  • DNA strands link with his album title 
  • Personal identity is the theme 
  • Level 3 - 8 marks 
  • The title on the album is good, but doesn't necessarily match the genre
  • Level 3 - 7 marks 
  • Photography is good with good editing to make the photos look better and look more professional 
  • Good strong colour scheme looks professional 
  • Clear artist image 
Some constructive feedback was: 


  • Text is good but the bottom left might look better if it went out wider to the sides of the frame
  • top left and right are too plain (why are panel 1&3 the same?)/ too simple
  • The font on the back cover doesn't fit with genre. Make this page and 'special thanks' page the same font to make the link clear 
  • Don't agree with font used as it doesn't give off an urban feel to it more of a rock/indie feel
  • Colour is dark which makes it hard to outline the artist (are dull and boring)
  • Doesn't like the CD image, looks ok for genre of music 
  • Level 2 - 4 marks 
  • The back cover looks squashed 
  • DNA is basic 
  • No information on the spines 
  • Special thanks is too long
  • Looks like pop genre 
  • Level 2 - 6 marks 
  • Only one picture of the artist, could use another 
  • Level 2 - 5 marks
