Music Posters

Posters are usually a way to advertise and create awareness of the artist they usually are presented when they bring out new albums or concerts/gigs.

Many artists have a music poster these are a few examples:

These are all simple yet creative and generally state when the album is out it is often at the bottom however can also be used at the left hand side. The posters are usually portrait and the artist or the name of the artist dominates the page. They are usually very similar to the cd cover and common themes are carried over.

Digipaks

A digipak is a type of CD packaging made out of card stock or other heavy paper/cardboard material. Digipacks can flip open like a book, or it can have three parts, so that one portion of the packaging opens to the right and one to the left, with the CD in the center portion. Usually, the portion of the digipack that hold the CD is made of plastic like a traditional jewel case CD - the plastic part is simply attached to the paper background.

Many artists use digipaks and here are three examples:

Digipacks normally consist of six pictures and sleeve and with consistent pictures. Digipacks are often simple and some are individual. They often have a spine and original pictures are often used.
