To help me to develpe my digipack I found it very beneficial to look at artists music videos and see how they relate to there digipacks.
MGMT
The front cover from the MGMT self named album digipak cover is very simple. There is a strong link with the digipack cover and images that are featured in there music videos. The MGMT album and music videos all follow a theme. The background of the digipac is featured throughout the music video for Time To Pretend, being the first song realised from the album its a great way to engage audiences and is easily recognisable.
Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday
As you can see the front cover of Nicki Minaj's digipak it is very pink, hense the name of the album Pink Friday. Throughout this music video - Check It Out the artist is seen as a barbie, which is also seen in the digipak with her pink hair and lipstick.
Example - Won't Go Quietly
It is clear that the image for the digipak was inspired by the music video kickstart, from the beginning of the music video there are a number of grides used that feature the artist - Example. I think the general idea of using grids looks really good on any type of music video and to reflect them onto the album cover is a good idea. The different images in the grids show the diffferent elements of both the artist and albums traits.
