Digipack research of my genre

What style is the album artwork likely to be and why?

I looked up 3 different prop rock band's digi pack designs. This can help me getting idea for my design and following the genre conventions. I chose to look at their first album because we are making a new band so following the first album design is better.

The first one I looked at is The Vamps, the reason I look at the them is because their style is similar to our band and they have 4 members as well.



At the front cover they have the members photoshoot and the logo is in red which the back and CD are also designed in red colour, so the colour scheme is very clear.

The second one I looked at 5SOS:



They also have themselves in the front cover, the drawing and the back sticky notes have the same conceot and gives out high school vibe. They are also using simple colour scheme, blakc white and red.

Green day:

For Green Day album , they did concept drawing and cartoon in the front which shows their playful vibe as a band and in side they have their pictures. 


As first album, 2 of them sued the band photo as front cover, the reason is they are aiming to sell themselves, even though Green Day didn't have themselves in front but they do have them in as inside.


What do you need to include in your design?

 Front:

Parental advisory

name of the band (bigger in font), because we are selling the band

name of the album


Back:

Legal info

numbered track list

barcode 


How will you link this design to your campaign?

From the research I have a concept idea, the first thing is to narrow down the colour scheme and them start doing the design.
