Digipack Analysis- Damien Rice O

Front

The front of the Digipack is mostly plain, not unusual of an Indie genre, the text is the name of the artist 'Damien Rice' and the album name 'O' the font is distinctive, it looks like it has been coloured in which along with the child's drawing at the bottom on the Digipack gives it the impression of 'do it yourself' the look and feel of it has been done to make the audience feel more connected as it looks as if the artist has don it himself, rather than it being mass produced. the sticker in the bottom left is reviews, this also gives it the 'home made' look as it is just a sticker that has been stuck on in seemingly no particular way.

Back

The back is also mainly plain, the text is of the track listing, and it keeps a similar distinctive font that it has on the front. There is again a drawing which is in keeping with the fronts 'do it yourself' look. There is also the copyright and legal information along with he artist website in to bottom left corner, in the bottom right corner there is the record label and bar code.
