Rihanna Digipak Analysis
The Rihanna digipak cover, doesn't reveal much at all, in terms of identifying the genre. From looking at this we can't see if its pop, RnB, rock,
but then again most people know who Rihanna is and what she does which means she wouldn't have to reveal her genre.
The red roses suggest love, that anyone who doesn't know or listen to her would think she sings love songs, in which some of them she does. The red could've been done to match the colour of her hair on the album cover. The red hair also could suggest a fiery temper she has, but once the digipak is opened they see the flowers and change their opinion, and believe it could be suggesting love overall. The choice of images of her closing her eyes, suggest she's dreaming, dreaming of being in love maybe. In my opinion I think the whole layout is a good one, it fits in perfectly with everything based on it, such as the text, images, colouring, it all just works very well.
Oasis digipak analysis
Oasis digipak is a not so 'creative' one, it lacks a lot of colour, has a lot of text in a 'dull' font. The guitar on the front suggests a rock 'n' roll genre. I think however, the choice of imagery is clever and effective, it really explains the genre of who they are. The layout is effective, the same as Rihanna's, but not as exciting as her's. When looking at a CD cover, you want to be pulled into picking it up and seeing what it's like, whereas this doesn't grab you at all, it's quite dull and boring to be honest.
