Rejected Idea
This was our initial idea for our front cover of our digipak. The idea behind it was having different forms of music technologies over the past years in each polaroid and arranging them in the sense so that it looks like a pinboard. We wanted to keep this theme consistent throughout the digipak including the inside. This was essentially a good idea as it was innovative and new however we decided to reject it at the end as it lacked potential scope and we wanted to have large images of the band members too. Therefore we decided to discard this particular idea and go forward with the Rubiks cube.

DigiPak Design Idea
This is an initial idea we came up with as a group for our DigiPak. The use of Rubik's cube represents the youth and unity of sub- cultures indicated by the different colours which also emphasises the pop punk genre. The pop punk genre are usually associated with young music that incorporates social issues in a form of performance using band members and loud music. The front cover is quite simple and to the point which is effective as it reflects the group itself and the simplicity in their music. The band name is exaggerated more on the cover as it more recognisable and so will be easily identified by fans of this particular band. The album name is 'Enigma' which means mystery and suspense. This again provides a outlook for the album as it makes it increases curiosity for the fans.

The back cover is also kept very simple hear. Keeping the Rubik's cube in the design, the back cover has the name of all the songs in the album. The songs are written on white which compliments well with the rest of the digipak. The Rubik's cubes are floating above the back cover in different angles which align with the ongoing theme, The innovative names of the other songs within the album stick to the mood of the genre. They are realistic names of songs that could possibly be used in an album of pop punk.
