The document discusses the codes and conventions used on 4 different CD digipacks. It describes the layouts of the front and back covers, including placement of fonts, titles, artist names, track listings, and other identifying information. Common elements across the digipacks are fonts that match the genre of music, track listings, barcodes, and details of the record label and copyright. Placement of elements generally follows rules like the "top third" for visual balance and readability.

of the digipack and
follow the top third rule. The album is called
“I’ll keep calling”
and the man is on
the phone.

is country and the
graffiti on the side of
the phone box says
“I’m waiting for the
man” which matches
with the title of the
album.

stop which shows

the road wanting to
call home.

as the front cover and it also has
how long the song is next to it,

the information for the
record label is and the
credits are.

stay the same and is
a calm font and is
good for the genre
country.

Ed Sheerans album
is smooth which
goes with the
acoustic style he

into the orange background,
however this cover doesn’t
follow the top third rule
because the information is
at the bottom of the
digipack
