dude you are like saving the world with these videos. giving musicians the ability to self release their music on physical media formats is so important, especially cause most of us are broke and replication costs have barely changed over the past few years + it's important to have physical copies for preservation. i'm working on a cd release for an album i'm working on and you're helping me save a ton by being able to make these myself.
also, i'm a vhs fan and this is like the only video i've seen on how to make these cases! in 2022!!! great work man
So glad I am able to help out!
There are so many fans you can reach just by having physical CDs A lot of ppl are sleep about how many ppl they can reach
this is a PHENOMENAL tutorial! As if you've provided PSD templates for not only the box but also the labels, thank you so much!
I like this guy, he's so kind calm and smooth.
This is just what I was hoping for when I Googled this! Muchisimas gracias! :)
Just wanna say, thank you so much for this video and all your other craft tutorials! A close friend of mine loves items like vinyl records, VHS videos, cassettes, etc and I made some custom items (for decor) based off of their favorite movies and music for their birthday using your tutorials. Your vids have been such a huuggeee help 💕 Kudos to also having really detailed explanations and providing the templates.✨ you’re an absolute legend!!! 😊
I've been looking into recording newer movies on VHS tapes lately for nostalgic reasons. It's actually pretty easily done tbh, you just need the right adapters for a VHS player to a laptop or anything you have that streams. Right now working on a VHS Edit for The Force Awakens, actually re-editing the film to fit a 4:3 frame (and I'm precise to where I want to make sure I'm having the shots line up with them, would be so much easier if I had an open matte edition lmao)
Post a tutorial!! I'd love to do this too ❤
@@mimzycrochet2148 I'm still working it out so perhaps I will when I've done cracked it ahaha
That's amazing! I would love to be able to do that, but I lack the correct equipment haha. For now, I am okay with it just being for display.
@@ACrafterinTraining Haha! Well I can say I've successfully done it! Now I just await to get myself an A3 printer to print off the VHS box to go with the tape (have already printed a nice label for it hehe)
Did you manage to get it done I’d love to see set by set
This is a super helpful and concise video - great job!
Absolutely awesome! This is exactly what I needed. 👊🤘🔥
Glad it helped!
OMG that looks so professional!
Thank you!
You should use a DVD and VCR to record the digital video onto VCR tape so you can actually watch the movie too
I did! But I took it to a shop so that someone could do that for me since I am not very good with that sort of things haha
Could you explain how to convert a DVD to a VHS? I've been struggling to do so and am now resorting to just using a video file from a laptop.
Can you actually do that
@@BrianKishreviewsconnect the dvd players video out to the vhs players input then start recording the vhs and start the dvd movie
Amazing man. You're very talented. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks a lot!
omg this is actually the best channel ever i am so happy i found this
Glad you like it!
you are a lifesaver thank you.
Great tutorial, this is super well made
Thank you!
You're so helpful, thank you so much!!
Thanks! You are so welcome!
This looks amazing
Thank you!
what kind of paper are you using? What size and thickness?
It drives me crazy that those idiots simply don't get the basics and supply such important information. You can use a paper 18pt ,338g/M2 or up to 400g/M2 and the papersize 11x17 or plain A3 paper. You're welcome!
@@trolojolo6178 Leaving this detail out was a HUGE oversight to an otherwise informative video. The VHS template I downloaded needs to be printed on 11x17. 8.5x11 will cut the image off and it won't work. I took mine to a print shop and didn't tell them I needed it to be printed on 11x17 and they SCALED it to "fit" the 8.5x11 paper they used.
@treescolorswizards you know what is actually pretty funny, there's literally a clip in the video that shows a UA-cam screenshot with the only comment displayed saying "what paper should be used with this?" Like brother how does that mean he made another video on this and neglected to put the paper type already? At this point he's gotta be doing it on purpose for engagement or something
you’re awesome! i really dig this and am definitely going to use it! thanks! 💯✌🏽
THANKS! Very useful!
You are my hero!
Thank you so much for making this! I'm just wondering. How do you keep your artwork/background colors from covering the black portions of the template?
this was awesome
You are a hero.
Hey there, I’m a year late to the video but hopefully you see this. I used your format and it works great for creating the covers. I use Office Depot to print my covers and I haven’t been able to get the right size. How, if you know, would I be able to get the template to work correctly when printing there?
LET'S GO! I CAME 5 HOURS LATE BUT IT'S FINE I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
Thank you!
this helps me a lot
what size paper do you print on?
this is 10/10 thanks
Vine buscando cobre, y terminé encontrando oro. Bv.

Yo what printer did you use to print this out and what paper would I need?
Thanks for this! God Bless:)
Yay! Thanks for making this video :)
You are so welcome!
What kind of paper would you recommend?
You deserve so many more subs
Thank you!
Nice. What paper do you recommend for the slipcovers?
Really cool. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great vid. U should try making maybe a blu ray movie cover or a dvd one
Yes, great idea! Will make a tutorial soon!
Hey question :), do know any alternatives to photoshop? Thank you!
What paper did you use to print the case?
what kind of printer do you use?
This is dope! Btw, what paper cutting board with round cutter from Staples called?
super professional result, great work ! and outstanding templates thanks so much for sharing !
Thank you too!
Hey Crafter in Training I have a question...
how can I make a VHS cover if the background is black?
what do I do?
Hey man!
I was curious how you make the designs
Is it something u do yourself ?
Or are you finding them on the internet ?
How did you design the actual covers and stickers?
How did you find the images to print on the slip cover templete?
Recommendations on slip case paper? I want to do a reversible slipcover for a clamshell VHS case. One with a professional looking cover design and the reverse side to look like a movie rental cover.
I'm actually working on a tutorial for clamshell VHS inserts. Hope to put it out soon.
was thinking the same thing, that's the HARDEST part to figure out... I don't think 80lb cardboard paper will have the same feel as an original VHS case.
thank you!!!!!
You are welcome!
What kind of paper and size do you use and what are your best printer settings for this?
I used premium semi glossy card stock paper. As for the settings, it depends on the printer and paper. I always select to print in best quality, no bleed, real size.
do you print this on A4 cardstock?
When I try to export for printing it says the clipboard is too big. Any suggestions for how to fix this? I want to make sure it's still the right size when I take it to the printers. Thank you :)
This is so cool! Can you make a tutorial for a 12 in vinyl?
Thank you! Of course, I am working on it!
Thanks!!!!
Welcome!
followed instructions what size are you printing my a4 printer says its not big enough
Thanks for the templates! Is the "VHS Slip Case.psd" file supposed to have multiple layers for the covers, sides, etc? It seems it only has the background "Black Out Parts" layer.
Hello, nice to greet you and I thank you for sharing this tutorial including the templates. Please advise how you configure the printer to print the vhs slipvover in real size, since I have done it but it prints at a smaller size and not at the measure, also ask what type of paper you use both for the labels and for the slipcover or box vhs box
Hello, glad you enjoyed the tutorial. The printing configuration might vary depending on the printer that will be use. to be honest, the only thing I do, is remove any edges that the printer might create and ensure the option to "print in real size" is selected. But to get to that configuration on my printer, I had to mess up multiple projects until I got it right. Trial and error is key when doing things with specific measurements.
For the case I used a paper that is known as couche where I live, but I have been informed that is known differently in other areas. Glossy card stock paper is what I found to be similar online. For the labels, I use sticker paper with a semi gloss finish. Hope it helps.
When opening the VHS Slip Case.psd in Gimp, I'm forced to choose between two options that have to do with the image having an embedded color profile. I can keep the file as-is or convert the image to the "built-in sRGB color profile". Should I keep or convert?
You should keep it as is, but if you convert it, the only thing that will happen is that it will edited the colors a bit, which can be edited later on.
Yes, I also let them know to select the option "print in real size" and I even take a ruler to measure the end result in case I need them to re print it.
Hey dude, you active? Love your tutorials :D
Do you know where I might be able to find slipcovers for VHS movies? I am attempting to create a wall display for the universal monsters VHS tapes but do not necessarily need/want the VHS tape itself.
Garage sales are the best and cheapest bet. Some thriftshops might also have some cool copies
Question what paper do you print on? Another thing what stickers do you use?
the paper I used is a cardstock semi glossy photo paper, and I use high premium glossy sticker paper
Do you have a website to download photos for the template?
This is dope , gracias. What kinda card stock did you use?
You're very welcome! I used a paper that is known as couche where I live, but I have been informed that is known differently in other areas. Glossy card stock paper is what I found to be similar online. Hope it helps.
Yeah I'd love to know what paper you used for the case! This is so cool
Wonder why they aren’t responding lol that seems like a major detail of the tutorial 😢
@@obscuregospel666 Yes, thats annoying!
Waiting on this too paper for the case and for the sticky labels

Fantastic work!
Maybe you can help me
I’m looking for a template design for a Big Box vhs tape
Essentially this, but bigger in size, and the top flap is also on the bottom
I know the size of the box I just don’t know how to make a template
The width of the box is 14.5cm
The height is 22.9 cm
The depth of the spine 3.8 cm
I’d imagine you’d have to print out the front and the back in two sheets perhaps.
Hope you can help
Love your vids ❤️
Hey great video. I currently have a Chromebook (and am looking for a better laptop...lol), but was wondering if you had a way to do this using a Chromebook since we can't get Photoshop on a Chrome OS
I have not, but I've been told multiple times that photoshop files are not compatible with other programs, so I am working on making them accesible for everybody. As soon as I find a decent solutions I will make a video about it.
Zesty (also thanks for the tutorial)
You are welcome!
What paper and printer did you use for the case? 🤔🤔
Your good man, thank`s

We so need a template for custom Blu-Ray slipcovers!
Yes! Great Idea. Will try and make it!
What size cardstock ? How thick ?
need your opinion on DPI. You have your templates set to 1000 DPI. Is that kind of resolution only something very special printers can do? Am I OK with 300 DPI?
I set them to 1000 because the printer I use needs high resolution images to print the best, specially when using complex elements in the design, like the small letters, etc. However, you are able to set it to 300 when using simple design or if your printer does not required high resolution.
Hi love! Any specific paper you use for the vhs cover?
Nevermind! Scrolled down and someone said card stock paper
Amazing video!! I was wondering which paper cutter you used in this video?
I use an x-acto knife paper cutter with a premium blade. Hope it helps!
That looks awesome! What paper did you use???
I'm assuming 11x17 ledger paper, i'm not a hundred percent sure but i will post an update on this comment as to whether or not it works, i think according to my measurements it should be that

Damn, that looks like the real deal man!
What paper did you use for the case?
That's what I want to know too. It looks like the cardboard that they used back then.
It’s card stock paper, it’s thick white paper that you can get at Walmart or staples
@@thriftingsifting6709 thanks
@@thriftingsifting6709 Thanks, I wonder where he got the cover art?
I'm more interested in knowing the size of the paper and what type of printer was used. Bc that don't look lole ink jet
hi, I just signed up, please help me, once I download the file and open it in Photoshop I can't do anything anymore
Do you use a special printer for the box

How do you get these images
It would really save my a** if you could help me out with this. I'm trying to recreate the Titanic VHS release and I can watch this video and make some beautiful cases no problem. But the Titanic VHS had a bigger slipcase the two VHS tapes in their cases went inside. Any idea how to create a 2 tape VHS slip box like the iconic Titanic VHS? Even from manufacturing companies the closest I can come is ordering slipcases for books, very expensive.
You should do some templates for dvd and blu-rays
But how do you design the Label and the Slip Case?
i'm sayiinnggg
Found your channel just not, really good videos and I hope to see a MiniDisc one soon :)
please tell us what kind of paper did you use for the case :)

I'm totally not suggesting anyone do this but recording stuff to VHS is a good way to still be able to watch it when *insert streaming service here* pulls it down.
HUH ???
This is SO well done!
Not only are the templates really easy to use, but your designs & reformatting of all of the cover elements look amazing!
What type of sticker paper do you use for the tape labels?
My only feedback would be: maybe mark your folds/creases on the blank side of the print, so the slipcase looks more seamless in the end!
Glad you liked it!
For the sticker paper I use semi glossy premium sticker paper.
Oh, that is a great idea! I will have to try that for my next project.
how do you fill in the flap with color?
also when you print, can you export it as a jpeg? or do you need to print the file directly as is from photoshop itself?
I use the select tool to select the part that I want to color and then I use the paint bucket tool to color it in.
Yes, you can save it as a JPEG and then print it, you don't have to print directly from photoshop.
@@ACrafterinTraining thank you for this
does anyone have the link to the file, my one drive is frozen
Do you have any templates for dvd or blu ray covers?
Not yet, but is on the list of future projects!
@@ACrafterinTraining ok thanks
Awesome! But What If It Is 2 Tapes Like The Sound Of Music Gone With The Wind And Titanic?
Oh, that will be a different project. I will have to get to work for a separate tutorial.
Hi,
I'm an absolute Beginner and have a Stupid question ---> Is it possible to use these Templates on other Programs than Photoshop.
Thank you.
And by the Way ---> THX for the Great Video ❤
where do you find blank labels like that?
They were printed on sticker paper then cut to size
@@ACrafterinTraining thanks for the tip!
I'm currently working on a horror film that will be released on VHS, among other things like Beta...
Nice! Glad it helped
what are the print measurements?
the cd is 12 cm x 12 cm
Do u sell custom vhs boxes and stickers? Thank u
No, sorry, I don't take commissions.
What size paper? And what kind?
cardboard OMG
For this, you'll want to use 11x17 cardstock, preferably 100-110lb thickness for best results.
Please make a DAT cover template
Did you delete your ig?
I lost it actually, the account I currently have is for personal use and haven't gotten around to make a new account
Can you show us how to make 12 inch vinyl jackets please?
Yes! Will do in the future ;)
Come on, this time you went too far, the recreation of the vhs was very good for those of us who love nostalgia completely
By the way, when you do the tutorial on how to make the box for 12" vinyl records or those that are currently made and those that come with an interior photo, that is, with 2 LPs or 1 with a vinyl-sized booklet
Thank you so much!
Vinyl tutorials coming soon!
@@ACrafterinTraining Perfecto, aun sigo esperando el remake del video de como hacer una contraportada y esas cosas, saludos
Could you make a CD obi strip template?
Yes! Will do soon!
Hey buddy I was wondering if see you do like a personal order I would love to make my own if you can do it for me. Please let me know thank you. I pay u for the work. ❤
