HOW TO: Easy Black Metal Cassette/Tape Layout! - [Photoshop Tutorial] 2021

- Make a cassette tape layout design using Photoshop! ⚔️
The second installment of my design tutorial videos is a tape j-card design in a dark black metal style aesthetic. To achieve this we use a simple print layout template which you can get in the folder link below, some sweet xerox/photocopier textures, evil olde English style fonts and some cool artwork provided by the record label. You gotta love the boldness and simplicity of these underground black metal tapes/cassettes, it looks so sick!

You're not only getting access to MILLIONS of the best assets, but helping me to continue spending the time to make these videos! ⚔
From a fellow "dark" designer of metal/punk thingies, thank you for your free goodies pack Ciarán. I downloaded it just for the perfect grimy SHM Siege Engine font, but i now see it has many more valuable items in it. That font rocks man. I had a black metal band as a client, and they had approved everything i made, but asked me if i could find a grimier gothic type font. I was using fonts already available, distorting them and adding textures to show them ideas and they were 90% satisfied with 2 or 3. Few hours back, i send them the artwork with your Siege Engine font and they replied, "we are now 110% satisfied!!" And i didn't manipulate your font at all. Thank you. You rock!
Buddy i am absolutely over the moon to hear that! Really really glad that my font could help you to bring the project over the finish line and lead to fully happy clients! It's an absolute pleasure to help fellow artists make nasty dark artworks and lead to happy clients with gnarly artwork to accompany their gnarly music. Wishing you all the best with your future design work Andreas, keep slaying it dude! ⚔⚔⚔
A BIG thanks for the bundle buddy can't believe this was free!
That was awesome to watch!
Cheers boss I hope the vid helped ya out! 🙏🙏
Super cool video, very interesting ! keep it on !
Thanks kindly for your feedback mate - I hope this video helped you with your creative endeavours. Cheers! 🙏
Cool to see this! Panzerwar is based out of my home city, cool to see him getting so much exposure
Awesome mate, great to see he's been so busy too - plenty of releases coming out from him and the WTV crew!
DAMN, ITS COOL !!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cheers buddy, much appreciated - I hope it helped ya out too mate! 🤝🤝
love ur vids thanks
nice one buddy, got loads more in the works 🙏🙏
That's a very solid job on the layout, thanks for the video. S.K
Appreciate that buddy - I hope the video was useful for you ⚔️
thanks brot for the guides ! i suscribe
Any time mate - I hope they help you with your artwork! Cheers from Ireland ⚔️
@@SpearheadMedia Hi, where can I download the resources of this video? I can't find them in the link you sent
Real cool channel man. would love it if you did a video on Event Flyers.
Cheers mate, glad you dig the videos. That's a great idea, I'll deffo make a flyer video!
Love your content man! similar to the asset pack creation can you show us how to make cool boarders like you used in this video?
Absolutely mate - I was thinking of making a UA-cam Shorts video of making quick tape and CD frames with India Ink!
@@SpearheadMedia hell yeah! notifications on and been a subscriber looking forward to more vids keep going thank you!
@@tylersmith1218 absolute legend! Cheers buddy, I'll keep at it and try keep getting new vids out on the regular 🙏 Keep an eye out for that frames short!
This is really cool man! would you mind giving out that j-card frame or make a video on how to make your own? I have india ink and calligraphy pens so i already have everything you said you need lmao
Thank you for the kind feedback mate! Yep I actually have plans in motion for a couple of videos detailing my asset making process including some tape/CD/vinyl textures and mockups that I hope you will find useful and be able to follow with the equipment you have. Here's hoping I'll have em sorted and online in a week or two!
purg
Link for the poster frame he made?
donde puedo encontrar las medidas del proyecto?
hey there, awesome video! helped me a lot! I just wanted to ask what size do you print this out in? whenever i print out my jcards they are either too small or too big for the cassette case. Thanks!
Hiya pal - glad you enjoyed the video! If you check the assets folder linked in the description you will find PDF j-card template that will print out at true size. Just whip up your j-card design on the template in Photoshop and save it as a PDF and you'll be able to print it up easy peasy. I hope this helps you out mate 🙌
@@SpearheadMedia thank you man! This did help me out a lot. Just one more minute of your time tho, i wanted to ask if you know any way to attach the front and back side of the jcards without using glue? Lol im a newbie i know, I just cant seem to figure out how to print a double sided page so i printed them separately and now i have the front and back jcards cut out separately too so im wondering if theres a way to attach them together? Thank you!
@@spectravoid5757 Hmmm that's a tricky one mate! Whenever I made cassette layouts on my home printer I would print it one sheet at a time, and one side at a time. I mark one side of the sheet with a pen in the corner and put that in the printer tray, then print the first side of the jcard, then after a minute or two to make sure it's fully dry, I put the same sheet back in the tray but the opposite way to the side with the little mark on it! That way you're certain it'll print the sheet on the opposite side. I know this way is a bit of a pain in the arse and is very time consuming, but hey DIY or die hahah, that's what makes us punks/metallers! Really hope this helps ya buddy, and best of luck with it
@@SpearheadMedia awesome thanks again man! This will definitely help a lot i appreciate your help!
@@spectravoid5757 absolutely any time mate, wishing you all the best with it!
I've got a question: what's your approach to font management? I noticed you're scrolling through fonts using the keyboard, which makes it seem like you've all your favourites bunched together. Is there a system you're using, or have you just being doing this long enough that you know where everything is by heart?
Truthfully, I know most of the classic families that I like to use, but almost ALWAYS forget the names of more niche fonts that I use, haha. Thankfully the latest Adobe CC groups your last used c.10 typefaces at the top of the list for quick reference. However, if I find myself using a new or obscure typeface (outside of the main big popular font families) I usually try to throw a copy of the .otf file into the folder of assets for that particular project. That way if I want to reuse the typeface later down the line but have forgotten the name, I can go "Oh, I used that for the Panzerwar layout!" and then simply go to that folder on my PC and find the font name. Hope that helps mate and cheers for you feedback!
@@SpearheadMedia That DOES help, thanks dude.
how can i get free assets i am unable to download it? plz help me out
Hey, know it's an old video but I'd love the assets and the link doesn't work?
Can you do one of these for the stamp they put on the cassette?
I could for sure dude - I might actually make an updated version with a 4 panel j-card with lyrics and credits sheet as well as tape label ⚔️
how to make the artwork like that?
wheres the google folder with the templates?
2:12 Why isn't this layout in the files you put for download?
Because that's my own work
So fuckin' useful!! Thanks a lot
Nice one mate, really glad to be of some help!
@@SpearheadMedia please consider making a tutorial on how to design frame like the one you used
@@Kaozgoat I shall indeed mate, I'll put that on this list of future vid topics! Cheers again for the feedback, much appreciated 🙏
Where did you get the gritty borders that you use as 'frames'? Did you create them yourself?
Yeah mate I made it with India ink by printing out a Jcard template and painting over it, then scanned it back in ⚔️
@@SpearheadMedia sick. Your tutorials have helped me a ton, keep 'em coming! 🙏
@@becomingad Super glad to hear that mate - I actually designed your logo a few years back, and did some merch designs for ya for Laurent. Did the Thy Will Be Done artwork too!
@@SpearheadMedia I am well aware and have been a fan since haha! Too bad Laurent is no longer a member and moved to Australia, he's a sound dude and super talented!
Hey, where can I get that frame?
I'm afraid you can't mate - I made that one for Panzerwar. You can however make your own one with India ink and scan it in, it's quite simple and yields great results. Best of luck with it!
Alex from panzerwar is a good guy
That's sick mate, glad to hear it - I only every dealt directly with the label, but the tunes go hard! ⚔️
@@SpearheadMedia great videos but Christ I hate Photoshop, two hours in and I cannot even change the color of anything from white to black....that paint bucket tool doesn't do aaaaanything....keep up the great work!
Ah cheers buddy I appreciate that! By the way, a handy little trick for inverting a white layer to black and vice versa is to just press ctrl+i with the layer selected. Hope that helps mate! ⚔️
where do I find the template brah? I'm so confuse!
@@SpearheadMedia its still not works
@@SpearheadMedia upload it in other web dude
very TRVE KVLT
Or you could buy a xerox like a real man.
😂😂😂 okay boomer
Dude, speak up, this mumbling is unbearable.
Sorry what was that? Can't hear you son
@@SpearheadMedia You can't hear what I fucking wrote?
Sorry what was that? Can you repeat that please kid? No idea what's going on here, can't hear a thing!
My headphones are fucking broken and I could still hear him clearly
