Digipack analysis for A2 media

1. - Name of artist at top and bottom of cover in spaced out writing so it stands out
- Colours are pink and purple connoting the fact she is a female singer
- Palm trees and neon sign imply that the album might be summer themed/club
themed
- Can clearly tell the genre is pop by what she is wearing and the name “Bangerz”
- The spelling of bangers being spelt with a ‘z’ implies its aimed at young
people/teens
- Artist is wearing a black outfit so that the background stands out more
- Being sexualised through outfit and makeup
- Red lips connote power (independent woman), passion and love
- This means some songs could be about love and breakups
- Title of album almost looks as though it is lit up like a neon sign
- Pictures of palm trees have a green/pink effect making it look fun/striking to the eye
- Artist is central focus
- Image is recognisable, short blonde hair, red lips, black outfit
- Stereotyped as reckless and lively
- Mainstream artist
- Miley has been cropped out and edited onto the cover
- Eye contact with camera draws people in
- Cover looks 80’s club themed so teens will be intrigued
- On this cover she has back facing the camera however still making eye contact by
looking over shoulder
- Hand on lip with mouth slightly open suggests she is secretive
- On this cover she looks more mysterious as if she has something to hide
- Both covers look similar but different pictures of the artist
(original and deluxe album)
- Photos are angled slightly in the background making them look as if they are
actual photographs that have been taken
- Colours of album almost represent a sunset/holiday connoting the fact that the
songs within the album are about Miley making memories and just having fun
being young
- This album gives off a mature but still entertaining image of Miley as she wants
the audience to recognise that she is no longer the old Miley, she has grown up
and her style/music shows this
- Overall, the album is bright and striking to the eye, it would definitely stand out
in a music store

2. - Names of the songs are placed unusually, they seem to
go round her body
- Picture is cut out
- Pink, clear text, all upper case
- On the back cover it follows the same colour scheme
- Still an ombre effect background resembling a sunset which is
possibly what inspired the fun summer theme of the album
- Side portrait of the
artist in same
outfit sitting on a
chair
- Looking away
from camera as
this is the back of
the cover which
will not be the
main focus
- Institutional
details
- Sony music logo
in the bottom
right corner
which is her
record label

3. - CD is simplistic compared to the album cover
- Pink writing against the white background so
that it stands out
- Pink also connotes fact she is a female
- Producers etc written in smaller, black writing
- Spaced out writing and same font that is featured
on the CD cover
- Name of artist at top because its important to
remember her name
- Name of album underneath
- Plain CD helps the actual cover of the album
stand out more
- This is a page of the inside booklet and a
sticker booklet you also receive with the CD
- The stickers are colourful and seem to be
aimed at teenagers as there are emojis used
and some things that only teenagers would
understand
- In most of the pictures in the booklet Miley is
wearing revealing clothing to attract the
audience and show her careless attitude
- Again, the writing has been placed
diagonally and rounded which emphasises
the party theme of the album
- Holding balloons also represents this
- Red writing matches her red clothing and
connotes her sexual, feisty nature
