Decisions for Subsidiary Tasks

To compliment our final task, we have decided to create a Digipak and a Website. We feel these two media products will allow us to be creative in the designs, and it i something new for us to investigate and learn about. 

Digipak

This is a paperboard or card case which holds the disk, as well as providing the customer with relevant extra information such as lyrics, images, tour dates, information and personal messages from the artist.
The benefits of a digipak include the fact that is is more environmentally friendly than the classic plastic CD case. Also, the cardboard used is more hard-wearing than plastic 'jewel' case, so will not crack or break as easily. They are often made out of recycled materials such as plastic bottles (for the disk tray) and egg boxes for the sleeves.  





Website

After considering many website creator sites we have decided upon 'WIX'. This is because it allows us to begin with a completely blank canvas so we can design the website however we wish, rather than being limited to particular templates, fonts or images.
