The end product of the digipak, in my opinion, is successful despite the small number of changes made since the first draft. However, since the first draft, we have been able to perfect the design of the product and place the appropriate media language to represent our chosen genre and star image.

Our final product is at a professional standard and demonstrates skill in the use of designing software. This is showcased through the heavy but purposeful manipulation of images, with the addition of an appropriate font choice and colour palette, and the depth that has been created. The use of these forms of media language acts as a semic code (Barthes) for an active audience to decode.

The digipak is unique due to the contrast between retro and contemporary styles and represents the star image’s artistic integrity. Conventionally, there is an absence of the actual star, which shifts the attention of the audience to the elements of design, showing that we have created a star image which is both ordinary and extraordinary, supporting Richard Dyer’s star theory.
