The document analyzes and summarizes the digipak design for Eminem's album "The Eminem Show". It notes that the front cover depicts Eminem sitting on a red stage with his hands in front of his mouth, possibly reflecting. It also notes the simple design is redundant but conveys meanings. The back cover lists the tracklist and credits, while the CD repeats the curtain image and text. In summary, the document evaluates the digipak design and notes a lack of creativity to draw inspiration from for the author's own design.

3. Redundancy
This digipak is very redundant it is simply just a man sat
on a stage, there are meanings behind it but it is not very
creative and there is no entropy. I have seen this is most
of the digipaks I have looked at in this genre so I will
consider this when making my own digipak.

4. Back Cover
The back cover of the
album is quite simple,
its still set on the
stage, the microphone
is up and there is a
spotlight. The tracklist
consisting of 20 songs
is written in a small
white font on the left
side of the cover. The
cover also has a
barcode, the logo of
the record company
and other details. I
will remember these
little details when
designing my own
digipak.

5. CD
The CD again uses the image
of the curtain, it also uses the
same text that is on the front
of the album. From looking at
this album I have seen that
very little creativity has gone
into it. I hope to make my
digipak a little more
interesting whilst still sticking
to my genre.
