CD/DVD
Often (but not always) CD/DVD package includes CD/DVD label, insert and case or jacket design. Usually I use Adobe illustrator for all 3 parts of the project.
work process:
Work process is not any different from other design projects – after collecting all content and discussing design approach with the client – colors, usage of the illustrations or photo images, fonts - I would create several different mockups. Usually I start with CD label and after label design is completed, I transfer same design idea on insert and case/jacket layouts.
advice to clients:
Make sure you place all important information on CD/DVD label, very often people take CDs out of the case and keep them in CD holders, so CD label should contain important product info, system requirements and your contact information.
