    My brain is hurting just watching how he makes this stuff. Wow. Never even thought of how they did it.

    This is fascinating! The thought process to transform 3D characters and environments into 2D forms and then making them unfold into 3D space and then move is just mind-blowing. Watching the AT-ST walk is so cool!

    I would be curious to know the next step of how a thousand of these intricate pop-up books are then cut, glued, printed and made. I never thought of what kind of machining must go into making one too. Very interesting, thank you! 🙂

    i used to making these kind of pop up art and paper craft back in my intern time at university, and i'm not try to brag or smug but i'm quiet good at it.

    I used to love pop up books as a child. Especially the ones where they used premium... ultra premium materials like cardboard pages with special plastic images that change position when moved. Like hologram. Jack and the Beanstalk in the 80's (choice publications) was the best book ever with the characters all clay and set, images captured for the pages, and the pages with moving plastic images like hologram and being a pop up. It was the best I've seen yet. I always liked pop up books too with levers and triggers that would add to the pages being interactive.

    Matthew is my favourite artist the king of pop up books. I made a pop up book at university and it was so hard. 😊❤

    Wow, I love learning how pop up books are made. This is definitely an adult pop up book. I just don’t see kids being gentle enough with them.

    Nice, this was VERY interesting and fun to watch. Pop-up books are so magical for little kids. Especially their very first time opening one. Speaking of which, I think I am first!

    As an origami artist, Kirigami enthusiast, and programmer, I’ve spent a fair amount of time considering how Kirigami-style pop-up structures could be generated using a program. It certainly should be possible, though extremely challenging. The main issue isn’t in working around paper thicknesses and frictions, so much as the actual designing part. Taking a 3d model and turning it into a bunch of moving 2d parts can be fairly simple, but choosing the most effective collection of parts and their associated mechanics, is very challenging. Plus the manner in which the parts converge/diverge often comes down to artistic decisions. Some mechanisms might be more effective, but don’t operate with the same degree of finesse as a more tailored set of mechanisms. Also the difficulty of assembly is crucial if the design is to be duplicated many times over. You don’t want the design to include too many individual components, all requiring tedious gluing/connecting (most of which would need to be done by hand).

    What an amazing art form ... being preserved!

    I wanted to know how they are actually put together for mass production. All by hand?

    I whish tyhey would have taken this 1 step further to show how the books are actually mass produced assembled. How do they train the persons that glue all the folded parts together ?

    that was awesome! I've been trying to learn pop up for a while now, so this was timely!

    Amazing! I really love the rough sketches! It would be great to have an art book with all this steps.
