CD Research

My group and I have researched popular female solo artist's CD case and actual CD design. Our research con corded that there is a consistent theme through their CD and packaging of that they have a theme. The theme can either be through colouring, design or the theme of a product e.g. candy.

As shown in our research above, Katy Perry represents a fun, cheeky attitude with the theme of candy with the candy cane print on her album cover font and the the same candy cane like font continues on to the actual CD. The candy theme is persistent throughout as 'Katy' is also shown laying out on cloud but they are in fact pink clouds suggesting that they are candy floss clouds.

Ellie Goulding's CD and packaging is more suttle but remains to be blatant in that the two products link via the goldy/yellow colour scheme and the font type of where it states the artists name, 'Ellie Goulding' and the name of the album 'Lights'.

Finally Pixie Lott doesn't have a consistent colour scheme but her font theme  corresponds with Ellie Goulding's in that the fonts shown on the cover and CD both match. Pixie Lott also has the theme of the croos or 'X' which is shown on both the cover and the cd.

My group and I have concluded that for our CD and Digi-Pack we would like to produce a product with a consistent theme throughout, via colour scheme, fonts and photographs of our artist.
