Digipak - Back of cover

After completing the back drawing i began to add
different conventions of  digipak's

Firstly i added white blank boxes in which to put text

After creating the box i added a more clear out line

Then i added a barcode which i created using a barcode generator

Next i added the Copy Right symbol, this another convention of cd covers there is often the copyright symbol to inform the public that the band and producers have legal rights over the creation and distributive rights over there product

I then needed to add a music producers logo/label but after researching  'The Pretender'  i wasn't able to find the name of the producers that originally produced the cd. therefore i found a generic music producers logo instead. image was sourced from  http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d2/The_Music_Producer_Logo.jpg

After adding the music producer logo i then added a Sony music Logo ,
this is also a convention of CD covers that have a label 

I then began to add text, i added 'track list' i chose a font style and colour that
was similar to the front covers text

I then needed to add the names of other Foo Fighters songs so i went to http://www.songfacts.com/artist-foo_fighters.php  had most if not all of the Foo Fighters songs . I then chose 9 different songs titles after including 'the Pretender' first as it is the main focus of the CD

After adding the song titles i then started to add a legal disclaimer that is present CDs and dvd covers.

After researching 'generic legal disclaimers' i found a suitable site and disclaiming however it was worded towards a different copy right item. So i shorted it and re-worded some of the text to make it more suitable for use on a CD cover.
