Overview Do's and Don't' of design work

When constructing a Digipak or magazine advertisement, there are various functions you can and can not follow such as...

A CD panel like the one about has a lot of functions which have not been followed. The amount of colours used which is 4 different colours is too much for such a calm posed photo. Even though the background colour and the blue photo do not compliment each other, I think it looks quite interesting but different. The font of both the album and artist name seem either too victorian or sans-serif for a rap album (the genre is given but the artist's pose and mise-en-scene). Along with the colour and size of these texts do stand out amongst the audience but do not follow the simple steps of producing a CD Digipak. One thing that isn't noticable is an album with this specific genre of Rap/Hip Hop needs an Parental Advisory logo.
