That happens quite a lot when you work with video/effects software. And not even in that fun, braggy way. After making video for hundreds or thousands of hours, your brain kinda gets rewired to always look at video as you do in work - trying to remember and grasp all of the mechanics of it - layers, effects, movements, etc.. And it's kind of an intrusive thought when you just watch video. Sometimes I find my brain thinking about effect stacks on an image instead of just enjoying it like a decent mind sponge.

I really hope this style of design becomes popular again. It looks absolutely stunning and has so much character to it compares to today's bland minimalism that's taken over everything.
@@delphicdescant I think the issue with current minimalism is that it's boring and uninventive, unoriginal. These VHS covers were colorful, made to give someone a certain feeling or have a certain meaning. Current minimalism is very bland, black on white. It's also mostly based on older logos with more life. Minimalism is about looking beautiful yet simple, not bland and uninspiring.
I'm a year older than you but I feel the exact same way. I grew up with VHS alongside DVD since we had a combo player and a bunch of old tapes from when they were still being released.
well nowadays it went from a magic black box and magic differently coloured smaller boxes to differently sized and proportioned magic boxes with a magic window powdered by magic black boxes of various sizes
The engineers had thought they'd gone and created the greatest format to ever exist, and triumph over their success by employing skillful graphic artists to create art that compliments it in a way that no other style could.
ball saxophone CD used infared lasers, one of the thicker wavelengths of light. They held 650 megabytes. DVDs used a red laser, narrower than infared. They held like 6.7 or so GB. A blu ray uses a blue laser, the thinnest visible light. They hold like 60gb or something
Man, I want these kind of aesthetics to make a comeback in today's modern world. These are far more appealing than the "sleek and simple" design we've got going on. Infact, just modernise VHS tapes again, love em alot
@lilboybailey Not at all! PAL VHS being 25fps is a misconception. Analog TV is interlaced, and each interlaced "frame" is actually composed of two different images, stored at half the vertical resolution of the standard. These images are called fields. PAL TV (and therefore, PAL VHS) displays 50 fields per second. The reason for this confusion is people think 25 interlaced frames = 25 progressive frames, and deinterlace the footage by blending the two fields contained in an interlaced frame into one progressive frame. The correct way to deinterlace the footage is to interpolate the missing lines in each of the fields, turning each field into a progressive frame. This results in video that plays at 50 progressive frames per second. I know my explanation is convoluted, but no, 50fps would not break the immersion at all - it would help it.

I work at a thrift store as the person who collects the donations and someone donated like 100 of these tapes. I'm happy to say that they are just as beautiful in real life and despite being born too late to remember many of these from my childhood, I could recognize ~80% of them because of this absolutely beautiful video.
Woah that one at 0:52 is nostalgic. My dad used to buy VHS all the time as he recorded lot of hockey games and he often got those ones. Know what's funny though, we've almost gone backwards in a way. It's actually very hard to record a TV show for archival now. You can use a PVR but now the show is stuck in a proprietary "black box" that you can't do anything with. With VHS at least it was on removable storage in a standard format. You could just buy more tapes as needed, pass them to a friend etc. Now if your PVR is full you have to delete stuff. I bough my dad a HDMI capture device that can record to USB stick so guess that's the closest you're going to get to a VCR, but at least with VCR you could watch something else while it was recording.
TV tuner cards are very much still a thing and, at least in the US, as long as it has a CableCARD port on it, you can get encrypted channels that you pay for, just need a conditional access module, you just gotta ask the provider for one though. Only issue is that Microsoft's support for that equipment is dying and the free alternatives ate unstable as hell
I think thats maybe the point. Was too easy to record and pass it around. Copyright infringement was their biggest complaint back then. My mom still has shelves full of movies that were recorded on blank tape and passed around at work.
I got a TV decoder that can record raw TS streams to a USB drive. It's awesome, though nowadays there's no interesting content on national TV in my country. I use it to record and archive TV ads.
The essence of the times is captured so elegantly and perfectly in this work. It's obvious there was study before embarking on its production. It's so well done - thank you for bringing this nostalgia to the internet.
God this video is so fucking good. The choice of covers abs especially the editing is just perfect. The little edit at 0:50 where he kicks the colors to the music is just awesome. Great stuff here.
This video really made me appreciate something. I could just say that I wish I was born in this era, where cassettes and tapes ruled. I could say that I wish I grew up with the different music, the different people, so many things. But then, I would have to forsake so many things I've come to take for granted. I'd have to leave behind the things that made me the person I am today, being on the cusp of adulthood. Could I just give it all up and try again, in a different way? No. What I am glad for, is that I get to experience videos like these, that show just how alive and vibrate the world was before me. I can live today and see what happened yesterday, meet the people and talk to the people who grew up with this unique experience. I can see all of the beautiful things that have been made in rememberance of what once was, and is no longer. What I can do in the future is to do the same for others. Constantly forwarding the human experience. Isn't that the age we live in now? Man, I gotta go the fuck to bed I got a final to fail
I thought this was going to be an obscure video essay about how under appreciated the art is, while I would have admired that. It feels so much better to just have it shown to you in a beautiful way. Rather than have it explained
Holy crap I just realized the trend of diagonal parallel lines is based directly on the innovation that made VHS possible! It's exactly how the video is recorded onto the tape! Thanks Technology Connections for explaining that to me.
Designers were really fond of stripes and in the later years, cubes and spheres. Was hoping to see some TDK designs in here too! Nostalgic but I'm glad we moved on from VHS and past LDs and CDs!
This really is beautiful. It really makes me nostalgic for those covers, there was a simple charm to them, but you really expanded that with the transitions. You've really got some skill and an eye for visual design! Dang, going to hold on to the few of these covers that I still have lying around.
Took me back to my childhood. Grabbing a tape at the last minute to record a movie that was starting in 60 seconds, only to find the tab had been snapped off. So you frantically run around the house trying to find some selotape to cover it up to hit record.
This is an amazing piece of animation! The first one should have read "Ampex" rather than "Aphex," but aside from that I have no quarrels with it. The way you got each one to seamlessly morph into the next is nothing short of fantastic. Speaking not just as a fan of old VHS tapes but also as a longtime pro graphic designer: Thank you for loading up a bunch of great memories!
1:06 This one is literally standing on my desk, with the recording of Czech Television´s "special report" on the 9/11 attacks, that happened earlier that day. All of this recorded over the movie Amadeus

No, you won't, you can't make me... I-
... Back in my day we recorded our TV shows!
This editing is honestly in a whole league of its own.
I feel like I’m too young to appreciate this one fully but it’s still amazing!
I love this so much.
Ok
The 80s/90s aesthetic really knew what was up
I thought this was going to be an obscure video essay about how under appreciated the art is, while I would have admired that. It feels so much better to just have it shown to you in a beautiful way. Rather than have it explained

@@swisserty Uh... what?
Same ‘ere T_T
Same but not in a “I was born in the wrong gen” way,I just wanted to experience it
@@swisserty Calm down
You should stream while you make these. A lot of people could learn from your talent.
The author is Russian, hence he might be shy to make such streams in English.
A magician never reveals it's secrets
KalebIsHere but an artist seeks to inspire
Keystrokes Yeah true. But. Like that other guy said. He might be shy (if actually is Russian)
I have no idea how you make these, and that makes the videos so much cooler
No idea what is happening please explain
Adobe After Effects
Coral draw
He surely starts from vectorial logos, my knowledge stops here though
Holy crap I just realized the trend of diagonal parallel lines is based directly on the innovation that made VHS possible! It's exactly how the video is recorded onto the tape! Thanks Technology Connections for explaining that to me.
Fastest minute and 42 seconds of my life....
So much nostalgia packed into one brilliantly animated video.
Cool pfp
ikagura thanks dawg
@@gcnelite5983 yeah i wish i had almost the same pic.
My grandparents have a few of these blanks laying around still.
How did the shotgun taste?
Designers were really fond of stripes and in the later years, cubes and spheres. Was hoping to see some TDK designs in here too! Nostalgic but I'm glad we moved on from VHS and past LDs and CDs!
Fuck no, VHS still rules supreme. At least you can drop a VHS without the entirety of it's contents becoming corrupted, unlike those goddamn DVDs.

Like what?
1:33 Holy shit, that transition is trippy as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...
Brings a tear to my eye even though I am not from blank VHS times 😔 If any of you see this comment, happy new year and stay safe. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Thanks

How the beat lines up with the light in 0:52 is beautiful
This really is beautiful. It really makes me nostalgic for those covers, there was a simple charm to them, but you really expanded that with the transitions. You've really got some skill and an eye for visual design! Dang, going to hold on to the few of these covers that I still have lying around.
0:37 that transition tho
Watching from 0:55 to the end tripped me the fuck out. Fullscreen recommended.
Dunno what this is doing in my recommended, but damn am I happy it's there
Took me back to my childhood. Grabbing a tape at the last minute to record a movie that was starting in 60 seconds, only to find the tab had been snapped off. So you frantically run around the house trying to find some selotape to cover it up to hit record.
This is an amazing piece of animation! The first one should have read "Ampex" rather than "Aphex," but aside from that I have no quarrels with it. The way you got each one to seamlessly morph into the next is nothing short of fantastic. Speaking not just as a fan of old VHS tapes but also as a longtime pro graphic designer: Thank you for loading up a bunch of great memories!
I believe that it might've been a reference to Aphex twin, an EDM artist
This feels like an extremely long movie intro with all the different production studio logos coming up
God, I sure love those logos, especially those one studio logos that you never heard of and have an amazing logo sequence.
1:00 ahh remember when every brand ever had the Olympics Logo on it for no good reason?- it wouldn't even be the year of or close to the year of-
no, you're kind beautiful.
This is like visual ASMR! I thought I was the only one who was mesmerized by the Scotch T120 gradient sphere.
I'm getting nostalgia for a time that I didn't experience. the editing of this video adds to the value of this video immensely.
This isn't even my generation but your edits are still so satisfying to watch
I was born in 98 and this brings back so much nostalgia for when my dad would record episodes of the Simpsons and kids TV!
1:06 This one is literally standing on my desk, with the recording of Czech Television´s "special report" on the 9/11 attacks, that happened earlier that day. All of this recorded over the movie Amadeus
damn that's pretty insane
There should be a 10 hours version of this for my sleepless nights.
Can someone put this on Wallpaper Engine? Its so fucking awesome!
someone did! user Manmar Miggins posted on wallpaper engine.
cool gamer is cool awesome! I’m gonna go download that, thank you :)
just download the vid
Op_Pls _Nerf I don’t have TH-cam premium
@@gagemikel186 there are free pages that let you Download videos
I still remember video companies using tapes like Maxel,Scotch,and TDK to record the studios’movies like I remember that the Raiders of the Lost Ark & Star Trek II:The Wrath of Khan said on the wrapper,”Recorded on Scotch Video as was Back to the Future.❤️ the video!
Is it wierd that Im getting a nostalgia like feeling even though i was born in 2004
Tylan Holmes I’m getting the same thing and I was born two years later
It's the music, look up more stuff by HOME like Resonance, you'll get the same sensation.
damn, too many kids here talking about nostalgia when they don't realize what it even is
@@yoman9446 ...dude the definition of nostalgia is recalling a memory that's usually a more happy or joyful period. You can have nostalgia when you start having memories. Get off your rocking chair.
Nostalgia AF. And the editing is gorgeous! Well done!!!
The crazy thing about this is it probably took SOOO long to make this and yet, this person still made it 60 Frames Per Second. Absolute Legend.
Using HOME music for an 80s video. I see. A man of culture
inb4 every 14 year old is wearing a pink sweatshirt with one of these designs
That sounds like a good idea actually.
Bruh the comment below yours is from a little kid who said it a day before you posted this one
Never again will we experience an era of such beautiful yet simple use of color, and line
This is so beautiful, I swear it should be playing in an art museum somewhere.
I can only think of one word for this:
*【ＡＥＳＴＨＥＴＩＣ】*
can i just quietly appreciate the sync with the music and the music choice?
absolute quality
This is one of the most spectacular video and TH-cam channel I’ve see in years! Definitely an untapped golden nugget! Thank you for sharing these awesome videos. Subscribed!
this gives you nostalga youve never had
Ooft, the nostalgia hit me hard here. This is wonderful! Your animation is so smooth and beautiful.
Such an unsuspecting title for such a perfect video!
