These videos are not simple DIY, you have hired production and did it professionally so that proper instruction reach to us. This shows your generosity towards your passion. As a rewards/gift to you we can do little by simply buying your books. Love from india, ordered your book from amazon India account. I am not sure what I do with these knowledge but it is giving immense pleasure to me when I make something moving :) !
I think your book plus these videos is ALMOST equivalent to having a one-on-one, face-to-face tutorial with you. I'm enjoying all the videos and will definitely watch them all.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and skills. You are a fantastic teacher, thorough and inspiring. I love your collection of vintage pop ups and how you show the fundamentals. You have really made the impossible seem possible.
I’m so glad I’ve stumbled across your card toutorials , you explain them with such detail , thankyou . I’ve made personal cards for a few years now, just for family. But I’m finding that making a pop up is not just exciting for the grand children , the adults love them too. I’m certain to be watching all your “classes”. Thankyou . Now I’m excited too.
I've since tutorial 1 and never seen any add,what a generous person you are sharing all these info for Free. And the hard work you do, made your channel even more fantastic
i've never been so excited going home to watch youtube until I found your channel. i hope more and more see your amazing works and get to experience your generousity of talent. thank you so much sir.
All your videos are excellent! Why? Because they are easy to understand and your presentations are so. . .non-intimidating. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and insight. OK! I'll admit - I flunked geometry in high school (only class I ever failed)! That was - what - 50 yrs. ago! Now that am obsessed with paper (and how pop-ups work - I have, at least, 100 pop up books too) I am ready to take geometry again. Since, at 71 yrs. old (with a undergrad degree in tapestry weaving) taking a geometry class now would be embarrassing . DUNCAN to the rescue! Your tutorials are allowing me to focus on the end result while "enjoying and understanding" the process. Here's how I feel when I watch your Utube videos - grab my scissors and any piece of paper. fold it (no need to measure); cut another piece; fold it; glue it; fold it. You are my "paper hero"! xoxoxo
Thank you - what a lovely message. I think of pop-up as a form of 3D geometry. I actually wasn't very successful at school so I hope this series of pop-up turorials can enthuse and inspire!
Have been watching the tutorials, trying not only to learn but to really understand the mechanics of it. Up to this point, I have to say that "I just know, that I know nothing", but that I will learn enough, as I keep watching your videos, over and over, doing the models taught by you. You are a truly master on this paper art!
Thank you for your appreciative comments. If you've started watching at the beginning of all the tutorials I think it's quite surprising what complex designs can be created with just a little knowledge!
Word by word, you are so right! I'm planning on watching all the tutorials, while at the same time, practicing every model taught. Bought 200 colored cardboard sheets to practice, paractice, practice. I'm so dedicated, almost I could say in the right words, I'm addicted to your art. One day for sure, I will climb to the top of knowledge to conquer the art of pop ups! Thank you!
I think one of the pleasures of pop-up is that it's possible to make some remarkably complex designs using only very basic mechanisms (nice illustration helps!). Also complex mechanisms are still being invented so it's an ever expanding field and there are always new and surprising things to discover.
besides you teach me the pop up art, I learn to speak a very good English as you narrated the video...God keeps you in the best of life, for being so kind! properous new 2020 to you and to your family
This is really great, just what I was after. I am studying Architecture at UNI and have been asked to create paper sculptures and pop-up cards came to mind. Thanks for starting so basic. :-)
This is so cool. I came here because I made something that I wanted to appear as a pop-up, but now you've inspired me to make even more pop-ups on their own.
Thank you so much for these videos. I've decided to use my extra time to make a special book for the girl I nanny for. I''m going to make her a pop up book for her first birthday. Thank you for making these videos!!
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and skills with us! You are amazing. I simply love your work! It really helps me because I often do pop-up workshops with children but I never knew all the basics and rules I just did some random stuff...Keep doing awesome things like this! Greetings from Czech Republic
Wow tris is much dificúlt to me, to understsnd the mecanique; it looks so Easy... but when I tried the first time I made a really mess. Master Duncan I am following you little by little. Never the less, I love to woke around though all your tutorials. Thank you very much.
Fantastic videos! Thank you for making and sharing these with the world. They are without a doubt the definitive tutorials on paper engineering how to. I’ve shared them with loads of people. If you’re wondering how to prevent your parallel folds from sticking out of the book when closed, I’ll share what I’ve found via trial, error, and measurement. Please correct me if I’m wrong. You should make sure that the total length of your parallel piece (not including glue tabs) is equal to or ideally less than the width distance of your page from the spine to the page edge. For example, if your page is 14 cm wide from the spine to the edge, you can have legs on your parallel piece that are 10 cm and 3.5 cm (not including the glue tabs). If the legs are 10 cm and 6 cm, some of it will protrude. I have the book Haunted House that Duncan shared. The brown stairs are a good example of this principle. The page width is 19 cm. The legs of the base of the stairs are about 13 cm and 4 cm. When closed, the stairs do not stick out of the book.
When you have a pop-up card opened halfway, 90° instead of 180°, can you make a box? Like making side walls for the yellow parallelograms at 1:45 - when I just take rectangles, fold them diagonally and glue them in, it works, but it looks rather crappy. In other words: Can you have the two halves of the card perpendicular to each other, one as bottom and one as background, with a pop-up plane that is perpendicular to both of them, but does not have any creases on it? Is that at all possible? I couldn't find an example anywhere.
I don't think it is possible to add a piece without a crease - someone may invent it, but I've never seen it. And yes there is always a problem that when one adds a piece as you describe it does tend to open into a rather awkward shape. All I can suggest is that the added piece is made of thinner card (or even paper) and that the fold is very thoroughly scored and creased before sticking it in place.
Probably look through the book first but when you start making pop-ups use the book and the tutorials together - everything in the book is covered in the videos and explained in a little more depth.
Hi. Tutorial 5 at 14.07 shows how to build a Parallelogram - to make stairs start with a tall parallelogram, then build a shorter one onto it, then build a shorter one onto that ... and so on. Another way is to use Counterfolds - Tutorial 1 at 4.32 shows a basic Counterfold, Tutorial 22 at 3.57 shows how it can be made into several steps. There is a glimpse of another (more complicated) one in Tutorial 5 at 2.37, this is also based on the type of Counterfolds explained in Tutorial 22 at 12.21 - this variation is not explained in the Tutorials but if you have access to the book it is explained on page 114. I hope all this is helpful to you..
ive heard this song somwhere....... its from videogame from 2013 when you have to try make it to the end of the level as a black ball with eyes....................
I would like to build a sort of cube to hold with the base at 90 degrees, like at 6:50. To do this I would like to add 2 new faces to the sides of the parallel folds. A full cube. Is all this possible? It can be done? Maybe by adding v folds under parallel folds ....
Yes you could add V-Folds to the ends of the Parallel-Fold to create a cube - this is never very satisfactory as the ends will still tend to bend a little. The most solid form for a cube is the Box (Tutorial 14).
Please never shut down this channel, it's so nice to be able to further the explanations from your book by watching these amazing videos.
We're planning to do another little series for maybe the middle of next year.

Excellent! Better watch out though as small children like pop-up books so much that they often destroy them!
You are so amazing. Explain perfectly, this is helping my a lot for a project at university (studying design) thank you so much

The parallel fold is easier to understand than v folds, I think
Parallel Folds are about the distance between folds - V-Folds are about the angles between folds.
I would like to build a sort of cube to hold with the base at 90 degrees, like at 6:50. To do this I would like to add 2 new faces to the sides of the parallel folds. A full cube. Is all this possible? It can be done? Maybe by adding v folds under parallel folds ....
