These are the album covers of the two famous pop stars - Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus. I've chosen these digipacks, because they are in the same music genre as the one our star Cheri would have, so we can identify and adopt the main features.
Taylor Swift 'RED'
As you can see the digipack clearly establishes the artist and the name of the album. It's also linked to the choice of color: album "RED" = red lips = red color = sexy, love, passion.
In the front cover we can see a close-up of Taylor Swift's face and the album name 'RED' in clear bold font. On the back cover there is the song list, as well as another picture of Taylor, record label and other legal info. The CD links well with the front and back by being in the same color palette and establishing both the artist and the album.
Miley Cyrus "Bangerz"
Pretty much the same can be said about the Miley Cyrus' album 'Bangerz'. We can clearly see the artist and the name of the album. However, compared to the previous album, the word 'Bangerz' is written in thin font and relatively small letters, not to distract attention from the star's face. Moreover, this album doesn't have Miley's name written anywhere - front or back covers. Probably, it was done on purpose to show that her face is so well recognized all around the world and she doesn't need to have it written on her digipack.
Similarly to Taylor Swift's album, this one has the songlist, record label and other legal info listed on the back cover. The whole digipack is kept in the same color palette.
Other members of my group did the same independent research about the similar products. Here are the links to their blog posts, where they analyse the album covers of other female pop stars:
