The whole of the digipak is a very thematic. All of the images used are very similar. They have similar digitally created images.

The whole of the digipak is a very thematic. All of the images used are very similar. They have similar digitally created images. With this front cover, it is meant to look very urban and street to represent the music. The front cover has a cluster of different instruments in a street art way which is to show the genre of music. Its on a soft background to make the image stand out. Also the title is also very square and looks like its in a graffiti form. The sprayed on MTV logo which is bright is show the partnership and also fit in with the style and theme.

This is the screen on the back. On it is what is featured on the discs. It has the number of songs on the CD and also it has the information about what's on the DVD. It also states what special features are on there. It also has the parental advisory sign to signify to the user that there is most likely bad language featured on the disc. It also has a list of brands and companies that were used to support and produce the digipak. Also the tear look out of the back maes the text clear but doesn’t take away the treet feel.

This image is again there to reflect the genre of music. The blocky text again suggests that the music is street. Also with the sprayed on effect if the letters again represents the genre of the music. The 3D style of the title again also suggests this. Also the kind of dirty brown background looks like a surface to be graffiti on also.

The inside images are very similar and are themed the same as the outside photos. With it being thematic it keeps similar and simple with no outrageous changes. Again it has the sprayed on effect that blocky font again.

This is something slightly different compared to the other images. It doesn't really feature any of the blocky text or any at all. It has a similar diagram to the title screen with the sketched images of the instruments coming from the side. There is also images of what looks like drawn hands again to portray the street like feel to it.

The CD compartment also has the graffiti look to it with the spray paint graffiti to it. Also in the background is also the graffiti style diagrams of the images of the musical instruments to represent they style of music.

The front cover for this is also a representation of the genre of music. By looking at the image you can see that the dark background with the purple tint to it makes it feel like a rock album cover. Also with the birds all standing on something and connecting together to make it look like a wheel, it again gives a dark and stern feel to it.

The back cover has a very similar image to to the one on the front except with this one it has a much more purple tint to the background because of the light being produced by the lit up birds. Again this ads to the rocky feel having a purple light on a dark background. On the back you also have what looks like some song names which attatch themselves to different sides of the shape.

Inside you actually have a list of all of the songs in this sort of font which is very square and looks quite like a horror font which again suits the style and theme. Again in the background you have the faint wheel of purple light again the cover is being thematic all the way through and looking consistent throughout.

In the CD case it has the front cover inside behind the actual CD. But instead it uses the text to match the shape of the disc carving. It has the text going round the casing to match the circular shape of the CD and the shape used inside, again to match the thematic approach.
