Fight club Digipak
- 1. Fight Club Digipak: Front Cover The Digipak itself incorporates specific iconography (the soap) used in the film that the audience will instantly recognise. Therefore standing out on a shelf. The typeface used is consistent with the fonts used in the film Meaning that fans will instantly recognise this typeface making it instantly indistinguishable. There is credit to “Original motion picture” showing that this was in fact more about the movie and less about the artists involved, in fact there is no reference to any artists on the cover whatsoever. The Digipak also has visible signs of damage on the front which is in fact part of the design, suggesting references to the motion picture itself.
- 2. Fight Club Digipak: Inside Opn opening the front cover there is photos of the main characters, therefore creating the link between this digipak and the film itself. Along with the characters the words “Fight club” are also shown off in a graffiti like style, similar to the style in the movies making intertextual references. On the inside of the digipak there is copyright information about the CD acting like a credit like style The Cd itself is interesting as it only has 3 letters on it following the overall design choices used throughout the digipak. This is important as the fanbase will be able to pick up intertextual references from this as in the motion picture itself the word incomplete is used throughout. On the centre part of the digipak there is a somewhat “damaged” look following the conventions used throughout the Digipak. Since this is a soundtrack for a film they have used similar design choices as the film such as a consistently used font.
- 3. Fight Club Digipak: Back The digipak continues to promote that this is in fact more about the actors rather than the bands used in the album. This is the images of the acros and their names. A common convention used throughout is the track listings displayed on the back suggesting that I may have to use a similar convention throughout my construction. Another convention used is the placement of a barcode on the back of the digipak Also in the digipak there is all the copyright information which must be displayed due to EU Law meaning throughout construction this will be an important convention to use. The use of colour and black space is interesting throughout this digipak as the top half has a very minimalistic styling whereas the second half is included with less interesting information. Meaning that tracks are more likely to stand out.
