Ancillary Task: Magazine Analysis: Kate Nash

Ancillary Task: Template of a digipak

This is the digipak template that we will use to help us design our digipak for Kate Nash’s album.  We have chosen a 6 panelled digi pak so that we will be able to show the biggest range of pictures.
On the front picture we want to include a close up of the main character.  This will draw in buyers, because they will be attracted to the picture of her, they will also recognise her as the artist which will increase sales.

Ancillary Task: What is a digi-pak?

What is a digi-pak?


A digipak is a style of CD packaging. Typically they consist of a book style outer binding with one or more plastic trays, in which CD’s are placed. It was created in 2000 and has been very popular since.
The information needed to go on to the digipak is the track list, the album title and a picture of either the artist or the band. It will also include information of which record label the performer is a part of.

The most common size is the 4pp Digipak which measures 139.5mm x 6mm x 125.5 mm.
