Evaluation Task 1 - In what ways does my digipak use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real digipak's?

These CD front covers all follow the same kind of conventions as mine as they all have an aspect of strangeness in them. Ultimately the strange and unusual bit of the cover is what appeals to the audience and makes them buy the album. I like the way these covers seem to be ‘fragmented’ in some way or another and have an image of the artist on, whether it be distorted or normal. The ‘Unplugged’ album cover is different and has only decks on the front however it has the aspect or fragment that I like and the idea of sections that, as a whole, create one image. On the other hand, the majority of these covers do challenge conventions as they are not exactly ‘pretty’ and attractive images. In my opinion the more strange and unconventional the cover is, the more likely some one is going to be more inquisitive about it. My album cover is more unconventional then conventional due to the mystery about it has to it, drawing in the target audience and bringing something new and original to the industry.These CD front covers all follow the same kind of conventions as mine as they all have an aspect of strangeness in them.
