One digipak I am going to review is from pop punk band All Time Low and their 2012 album 'Don't Panic', this digipak was created by TinmanCreativeStudios. The overall colour of the digipak is a blood orange type red with a cartoon drawing of monsters, zombies and distressed citizens with a cartoonish apocalypse style background. The bands logo is featured at the top of the digipak in a white font. The name of the album in a speech bubble with similar white font that is used for the bands logo. On the back is the full list of songs featured on the record in a black font with a cartoon styled crowd . When you open up the digipak the first two panels follow the cartoon style post-apocolyptic wasteland this time featuring the four members of the band (Alex Gaskarth, Rian Dawson, Zack Merrick and Jack Barakat) who are also in a similar cartoon style. This trend continues into the next panels with the band members doing different everyday activities such as taking pictures and sitting at the beach.
Neck Deep - Wishful Thinking
Another digipak that I have reviewed is also from a pop punk band called Neck Deep. The overall colour theme of the digipak is dark colours such as a dirty golden which is heavily used throughout as well as pale cream, baby blue and dark pink, the background of the front image (which is a Zoltar from the movie BIG) is supposed to resemble a carnival, I have came to this conclusion as you can see fairground rides such as a ferris wheel. The back of the digipak is stylised to resemble a carnival ticket stub or a strip of paper from the fortune machine with the top image being a sketch of the Zoltar fortune machine and the bottom features the track listing for the album. When you open the digipak fully the inside image is a zoomed in picture of Zoltars hands holding the crystal ball, the focus is on the crystal ball as this is in the centre of the panels, the predominate colours of the inside panels are white and cream with dark blue in the visible background. The final back panel is a continuation of the carnival background with a sunset coloured background and black silhouettes.
We Are The In Crowd - Weird Kids
The final digipak i have reviewed is by another pop punk by, We Are The In Crowd. The overall colour of the digipak is a simple matte black background, this colour scheme runs throughout the entire digipak. The front of the digipak features an image of a sleeveless denim jacket with a patch sown onto the front which is an abriviation of the bands name. The album title is overlaid on the image with the first word 'weird' being stylised in a graffiti style font and a simple lowercase font for 'kids', the font colour on the front is white. On the back of the digipak you see the back of the denim jacket with another patch sown onto it, the track listing is in a small white block capital font. When you open up the digipak the inside the lyrics to 'Attention', their first single from the album, the lyrics are spread out across the three inside panels, the font is the same as the track listing with the same colour white as the rest of the digipak. Overall this is the digipak i am going to take reference from when creating my own.
