콤팩트디스크 재킷 메인 디자인의 유형 분석

Today's Compact discs have replaced vinyl LPs as the mainstream product of recorded music. In the beginning, designers faced difficulties in designing compact disc jackets because of their small size relative to LPs. However, the creative approach of designers, the improvement in jacket design techniques and development of computer graphic design tools combined to improve designs. The main visual motif is one of the most important elements of a compact disc jacket design along with the design of the packaging, face of CD design and booklet design. It is crucial to the overall appearance and visual impact of the product and can take various forms. It may incorporate images expressed directly or indirectly and use typography and illustration. The compact disc design should bring together these various aspects of design, drawing on all the available materials and techniques. Jacket designs should be more that mere image displays of images but should seek to embody visually the essence and aesthetic of the music they represent. When these conditions are successfully met, the compact disc jacket design will transcend its basic function as packaging to enhance and sublimate the artistic message contained in the music.
