Real Media Artefact (MIKA Digipak)

The front cover is made up of many illustrations that represent the 'mind of MIKA' and makes the CD seem almost childlike and less serious as opposed to just having an image of mika on the front cover. The colours of these illustrations are also very eye catching and so, for the purpose of grabbing the attention of someone, this would work well because the colours are very bright and stand out. The illustrations then carry out onto the back page where the planets and stras are also drawn and even the CD has an illustration on it, so this links the whole package together. The illustrations of the universe could represent how the album is 'out of this world' or it could relate to the name of the album, along with the cluster of images because "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" could suggest that he knows of all these things that have been shown on the front cover.
The name of the artist, MIKA, is in capital letters in very large font on the front cover so, again, this grabs the attention of the reader. The choice of white for the colour of the font makes it stand out against the colourful background so that it is clear to see who's album this is.
On the back page there is a list of songs for the first CD and a list of songs for the second CD and the font used here is in yellow. This is most likely because, although white would stand out against the background slightly better, if the font were white it would blend in a little too much with the bright white stars illustrated on the back page. So the yellow font makes it stand out against the background and the stars.
There is also a small image of MIKA on the forn cover next to his name so that people can associate this sort of font and illustration with him as an artist. There is a barcode on the back which will be on every digipak and next to that is a paragraph of information about the company and record label etc.
