This is our finished digi-pack template (the top section is flipped so it's legible - in reality this would have to be upside down). The top three panels would appear on the inside of the album, and the bottom three on the outside. We have stuck with the blue colour of the original album - thus referencing it in some way - and also included an unravelling sweater which alludes to the lyrics of the song that we have created the video for - The Sweater Song, another album that does this is The Pixies' 'Doolittle' - referencing their single 'Monkey gone to heaven'. In addition, we have stuck with the conventions of the band by including them standing 'awkwardly' on the front cover, however have added something different with the presence of the TV. This makes our digipack a little different yet still fitting within the conventions of the genre. 
Doolittle - Pixies
(referencing their single 'Monkey gone to heaven' by depicting a monkey with a halo on the cover)
Weezer (blue album) - Weezer
We attempted to capture the same composure that Weezer have in their original album, capturing the essence of Weezer. This is important as Weezer have established themselves as a different kind of rock band, a 'geeky' and awkward one. It only seems right that to follow this convention and get the complete Weezer look.
