"In response to the rising interest in CDs and DVDs as desirable objects, Print + Production for CD + DVD Packaging explores the creation of groundbreaking packaging from a production perspective. In addition to the traditional graphic elements of cover art, it explores special features of the physical packaging itself: formats, bindings, casings, materials, textures, and finishes. From movie to music packaging, it examines both creative inspiration and practical considerations and restrictions. Through award-winning work, this book shows how designers exploit the 2-D and 3-D qualities of packaging to create highly collectable works of art."--BOOK JACKET.
