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!

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!

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?

[allinone]

how can i get free assets i am unable to download it? plz help me out

[peacemaster]

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?

[JFHarrisComedy]

Can you do one of these for the stamp they put on the cassette?

[harrymckenzie]

Hey, know it's an old video but I'd love the assets and the link doesn't work?

[GalvanicGearAkaPicao]

2:12 Why isn't this layout in the files you put for download?

[becomingad]

Where did you get the gritty borders that you use as 'frames'? Did you create them yourself?

[QuinnCooper-ki]

wheres the google folder with the templates?

[spectravoid]

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!

[NORESTEKINGSTV]

[shawn]
