This is the CD front cover, back cover and CD design of Frank Ocean's album 'Channel Orange'. You can see the main colour used across all three components is a bright orange. This is a very bold colour and slightly unusual to see on a CD, but it might reflect the content of the album being quite alternative and daring. The main font used is white in colour, contrasting the orange, but in a more subtle way to if black was used. The chosen typeface is simplistic and used across all three components apart from the word 'Channel' (part of the album title). This is also the only word which isn't capitalised, making it stand out from all the other text. It is not only in a different typeface, but has also been given a sparkly glow and is in bold, adding importance and attention to the word, and distinguishing it from any other surrounding text. The layout of this digipak results in a lot of space around text and a very plain design. This puts more focus on the album title and track names and I think the minimalistic feel reflects Ocean's musical style. There is not much text on these three components other than what is really necessary. As well as the album title and track names, there is also copyright and record label information but not much else. In terms of images, there are no photos used for this digipak, and only one picture which is situated on the CD itself - an image which seems to resemble an upside-down eject symbol.
