The CD digipak is a registered trademark of AGI World Ltd since 2000. It was originally owned by IMPAC Group Inc. The CD digipak is a modern alternative to CD jewel cases. They consist of cardboard packaging with plastic trays inside that hold CD’s in place. CD digipak’s are becoming more and more popular with the music industry as they are eco friendly and also give the final product a professional look and feel through the use of specialist print finishing.What different forms can they take?
Some of the different forms they can take are as follows;
4 panel case with 1 tray CD digipak template 
4 panel case 1 tray CD digipak with inner moon cut pocket template
6 panel 1 tray CD digipak with thumbcut pocket template 
6 panel 3 tray CD digipak rollfold template 
8 panel 4 tray CD digipak rollfold template
what are the conventions of a CD digipak?
With most CD digipak’s the main conventions on the front cover are the title of the album or single, the artists name, an image of the artist or an image of something associated to the artist album and possibly a parent advisory sticker. They are normally quite plain with little text and more imagery.
The main conventions of the back cover of a CD digipak are the titles of all the songs on the album or single possibly with running times of each track, a barcode or serial number and the record labels label.
The spine has little on it but the main conventions are the title of the CD and a serial number.
The conventions of the inside can vary depending on the template used but for a 4 panel 1 tray template the main conventions would be on the tray side simply just an image behind the plastic and then the CD. For the opposite side it doesn’t really have any conventions because the artist can put whatever they want on this side it can range from images to thank you messages.
