Hey Jeremy? I have a question, how do you design all all of ur models? I mean most of them are so advanced, how do you come up with them? Do you start with a main idea and move on from there, or start folding and see what happens? Pleas tell
Hi Samuel, Thanks for the question...A lot of other people have asked me this too, so I'll take some time now to try to answer it in depth. I go through different methods at different times. I have done free folding a lot, but recently I've been a lot more into folding ideas, and a big part of the design process is figuring out which ideas I will be successful in trying to design and whether people will even want to fold them. Recently I've been looking at what's trending (the Pacman model was a result of that), and then trying to fold it. I also get a lot of ideas from you guys and I usually feature the comments that inspired my models. Sometimes I'm quickly successful at designing the models from the ideas, other times it takes so many tries... The human skull took me over 30 tries! Other times, I'm unsuccessful but my attempt at trying to design something will morph into a different model, like for example, I was recently trying to design a pull-the-tail flapping pig since this is the Chinese Zodiac year of the pig, but I ended up with something that resembled a turtle so I went with it, which included looking up on Google Images for what turtles look like. Knowing when to stop and call it a finished model is part of the art of design. Also, knowing when to stop going down a certain path and rather backtrack and go down the path of an earlier attempt... there's an art to that, and it applies to other aspects of life as well. Also figuring out whether certain details of a model are worth the extra complexity to achieve them. Did I really need an eye on PacMan.... that was hard to say but I went with it. Finding the most efficient use of paper sometimes makes the model so laborious to fold that it's not worth it. If an easier base ends up giving you all the appendages you need then.... Good! Being able to make use of the extra paper rather than just tuck it inside I think is an important skill. I recently designed a 5-pointed star from a double bird base and I used the 3 extra points... as a tripod for the star! I have bags and bags of unfinished models I deem worthy of possible future exploration. As for the process of designing itself, I often utilize a set of well-known bases, structures, mechanisms and tricks that I've accumulated over the years... examples include Flapping Bird mechanism, pleatsinking, frog tongue pattern, interlocking rings structure, Surfer on a Wave twisty person technique, corner isolation technique, pop-up card bases, waterbomb-birdbase-fishbase-pigbase-frogbase-pinwheelbase-etc variations, drawing with the edge of the paper, Tree Maker concepts (but not with computer), tatos, twistfolding, iso-area folding, flickers, flasher mechanism, color-change techniques, and my bar theory of action models which is really just an awareness that folding the paper creates a certain tensile strength along the fold line and I try to exploit that in my action models.... More parallel folds make the "bar" stronger. Another big step to designing is finessing the folding method... that includes trying to find clear guidelines for each step and making the steps as easy to do as possible. Like for instance, I often try to break up reverse folds into mountains and valleys or at least into squash-folds, which seem a little easier for beginners to grasp. Those are some of the building blocks I use. Hope that helps!
Hi guys, Just a reminder... I highly recommend trying it from printer paper cut square. The 10-inch kami I used in the tutorial on average didn't fly as fast as the one from printer paper and it got worn out faster as well.
Hey jeremy shafer, i watched you when i was grade 2, which was when i was 8. At that time, i had to go back home from school alone and stay at home alone too, i was lonely and scared. But when i found your videos, i never felt alone at home, you were like a friend, teaching me all sorts of fun origamis. Now i know about the commenting feature, i just wanted to let you know, you are one of my favourite people in this world, Thank you so much!
The Indian Kite Festival might be over, but the Origami Flicker Kite Festival has just begun... in backyards and playgrounds around the world! Happy Kite Flying!
@@snowyfin Me too.... You'd have to be going over neighbors' fences a lot if you do that around here! I was going to say out in the street, but that could be dangerous.
hey Jeremy thanks for being an inspiration for me when i was younger and even now to fold and show of your creations. i love origami and your channel keep up the good work
Thanks! Can you please make a tutorial on how to make a spider, my friend designed one and taught it to me. We used a 24x24 grid, we also had a crease pattern Thanks
I've found that the Unopenable Consolation Envelope is an even better flicker! More,if you fold it with two squares back to back, it is a fantabulous --no, awesome--no, EXCELLENT ninja star!
Hey Jeremy! Long time no see. I have another request! I was wondering if you can teach us the Five Intersecting Tetrahedra by Thomas Hull. We all need a tutorial on where the pieces go in the correct places. it's gonna be hard to pull off so I wish you the best of luck. PEACE
What a coincidence, this kite flicker looks like my A4 flicker ( which I better post it online before other origami knowledge is lost with me when I die x_x )
Fun fact: gravity on som parts of earth are stronger and weaker and bc in Indonesia gravity is strong, which is why it doesn't fly well in Indonesia, you can search up the gravity map so you can know if the gravity in your area is strong or weak (btw I live in Indonesia, Pontianak)
Hey Jeremy I tried to flick it it was really difficult so I just threw it like a ninja star and it worked! Can you invent a fake iPhone out of paper? Also I subbed and turned on the notifications. Great vid
hey Jeremy I have been doing origami for a long time and I always get frustrated but I still do origami so I just want to tell you that your the best origamist
Hii Jeremy i am kushal from India. I am a huge fan of you. I have a small request can you make a Hot Air Balloon shapped flicker please because here there is a Balloon festival please try.
U Heftier Hutch Good game but it has to be a good game to play with friends and family and I love it and I am so happy that I can play it and play it all the time and I love it so much I love it so many thanks for the game and I love it so much I love it so many thanks for the game thanks r I am following up with the kids and I love it so much I love it so many thanks for the game.

Hey Jeremy! Long time no see. I have another request! I was wondering if you can teach us the Five Intersecting Tetrahedra by Thomas Hull. We all need a tutorial on where the pieces go in the correct places. it's gonna be hard to pull off so I wish you the best of luck. PEACE
it have a pocket you can flick like a ninja star
Thank you
You are the paper king

I ordered origami to astonise and amuse your book. It was 😎
It is super cool
Nice kite 🪁

Which paper do you use
Jeremy will you make shield that flies and return
Also works as a spinner, hold it vertically and blow, don't hold it too tight.
Please make origami rocket
You origami is the best how to you get these ideas
What a coincidence, this kite flicker looks like my A4 flicker ( which I better post it online before other origami knowledge is lost with me when I die x_x )
Jeremy, with almost all flickers you make, I found out you can throw them frisbee style to!
Ya, especially if you fold them large and out of heavy paper.
How long before that door breaks? lol
HAHAH MY BROTHER TRIED THIS AND HE BROKE HIS WINDOW
LMAO
THIS IS GREAT JEREMY MAKE SOME MORE THINGS THAT WILL GET MY BRO INTO TROUBLE LOL
Hello Jeremy please make an origami boomerang ( a bit simple)
Fun fact: gravity on som parts of earth are stronger and weaker and bc in Indonesia gravity is strong, which is why it doesn't fly well in Indonesia, you can search up the gravity map so you can know if the gravity in your area is strong or weak (btw I live in Indonesia, Pontianak)
I LIKE SO MUCH, ITS SONIC OR ITS MARIO BROS?
When I said Sonic, I just meant super fast flying! Nothing to do with video games.
Hey Jeremy I tried to flick it it was really difficult so I just threw it like a ninja star and it worked! Can you invent a fake iPhone out of paper? Also I subbed and turned on the notifications. Great vid
hey Jeremy I have been doing origami for a long time and I always get frustrated but I still do origami so I just want to tell you that your the best origamist

Hey Jeremy Shafer I am a big fan of yours, can you send me the name of paper you use
I used to use Aitoh paper but now I use Daiso because it's less than half the cost and more and better colors and the white side is more white too!
Happy makar Sankranti.
