LOVE all of your videos. I'm learning a lot and I've ordered your book. 😊 This video gave me a Déjà vu feeling... then I realized it's same as the ending part of tutorial 5!
These tutorials are great, this is the first one i've gotten stuck on! I've been following along with my own practice cards but I just can't seem to get the movement as dramatic as what's in the books....Oh well, on I go through the tutorials! On the whole, they're a breeze to follow!
To get spectacular movement I've found I need to experiment a bit - first make the basic mechanism (the parallelogram with the two little added triangles - in the video at 12.50) - then try building up the arm pieces step by step with several small straight pieces, stick a piece on and make sure that it will fold away and not snag as the base closes, then add another piece onto the end of it - as you add each piece experiment with lengths and angles - and with each new piece make sure that it closes smoothly.
Moving arms can be added to many other shapes. I've demonstrated them with a parallelogram because the gullies on the parallelogram open out totally flat and so give the arm maximum movement. In essence the muscle that moves the arm is just a small counterfold that is built into a gully (See 1.20 in Tutorial 22). Building these little triangles into any gully will enable you to make an arm move. There are numerous delightful and very clear examples in most of the pop-up books by Robert Sabuda and Matthew Reinhart.
I've having a hard time with my project. I'm making 3 (people) figures. One on the center, one on the left, and one on the right. The figure that will be on the left is going to have a moving arm moving from left to right going towards the figure in the center, almost as if hugging it. However, it's not really moving. This has been very bothersome. I hope I can get it to work soon. Thanks for the video.
Hi! First of all, I really appreciate the work you've put into these videos. You have been very clear and easy to follow along.:) I do have a question though. I like the effect of the bird's wings, specifically the airy space between them and the page below, at 9:00 but I am having trouble seeing the mechanism. Are the wings on a separate parallelogram facing the opposite direction since they fold to the right? Or are they on one of the triangles? The example you did at the start of the video has the movement I want, but I don't want the arms to have contact with the background.
Ha! You've spotted a variation that I failed to include in the tutorial. In this case the basic mechanism is still a parallelogram that lies flat when the base is open flat. The difference is that the gluing tab that attaches the short side of the parallelogram to the base is made a bit longer and instead of it being glued down folding towards the spine (and being hidden behind the parallelogram) it is glued down pointing away from the spine. This creates a gully on the outside of the parallelogram (between the short side and the base). Before gluing down this extended gluing tab fold two little triangles into this gully - just like at 5.00 in the tutorial. The wings you spotted on the bird are glued to the little triangle that is on the short side (and the outside) of the parallelogram. In the tutorial there is actually a glimpse of the mechanism at 9.01-9.03. This variation is also explained on page 90 of my book. Hope this helps.
Couldn't figure out the movement of the yellow strip from behind the green parallelogram at 3:18. You mention that the yellow strip is stuck to the page at an angle. Could you kindly explain further?
I'm not sure what your difficulty is! At 3.18 in the video you can see the end of the yellow strip and where it is attached to the page. The end of the strip is simply squared off and has a gluing tab that attaches it to the page. It is glued at an angle of 45 degrees to the spine fold. Probably the easiest way to understand it is to just make it, experiment! I hope this helps and that it all works.
The end of the arm is square, it's stuck down at an angle of 45 degrees to the spine. The easiest way to understand it is to just make a few simple experiments - no need to measure anything.. Actually showing it is a bit difficult as making these videos takes quite a lot of long term planning and organising.
O livro é chamado de "Design de Pop-up e Mecânica de Papel - Como Fazer uma Escultura de Papel Dobrável", está sendo reimpresso no momento e estará disponível na Amazon em breve. Claro que não planejado, mas se você gostaria de organizar um em Portugal ......
please Duncan.. i searched everywhere for your black book pop-up design... unavailable... not in stock.... please can i buy a used one from yourself... i need the book...
It is available on Amazon uk. In fact the contents of the black cover book and the pale blue cover book are exactly the same - the blue one is just the publishers attempt to refresh the image. I explain in the video "The Pop-Up Channel - Book Notes".
+The Pop-Up Channel You are right, it was my computer, now i see it, very good videos. When you make more videos? They are excellents and very instructives! I learn so much... I am an art teacher, I learned so much. i make pop-cards too, i love it, it's good hobby for me, i also use to my teach work...Congratulations for your tutorials...
+Arte Maniaco Oh good - I'm glad you have managed to see them. I will make more videos, but not sure when as I'm quite busy. You can get more information from my book "Pop-Up Design and Paper Mechanics" - there is also a French edition "Pas a Pas".. Best wishes
The body of the figure is actually made with a Pointed V-Fold (Tutorial 3 at 10.50). The arms and legs are moved by little triangles glued into the gullies where the body joins the page (Tutorial 15 at 2.19) ..... In the tutorial I said that the body was made with a Parallel Fold - sorry, this was inaccurate - though a very similar figure can be made using a Parallel Fold as explained in Tutorial 6 at 4.10.

Muchas gracias que lindos trabajos
gracias por el gran aporte a los que aman esta tecnicas de pop up , felicitaciones por tu canal, exitos : from perú :)
me ha encantado muchísimo!

Very nice video . I did for my friend. And he loved it
IS THIS ALSO CONSIDERED 3D?
Eres genial Me encantan hoy me suscribi a tu canal porque eres genial gracias por compartir tu talento y tu sabiduría con nosotros tus suscriptores
¡Gracias por su entusiasta apreciación!
Thank Sir ! Teacher Duncan ..🌹🌷⚘🌷🌹⚘
downloading them, planning to make a book in my next holidays. Thx a lot :)
Great - hope it goes really well.
can i build a moving arm with others forms? or should i only use parallelogram?

Lovely! ❤❤❤
Dude I wanna be like this when I grow up
Thank you! I think I found a perfect ver to make an above bird in flight and moving wings by using this idea
It might be worth also looking at Tutorial 12 .
Thank ya! Will do!
Gracias por esta lección
Amazing
فديهاتك رائعة واصل الاستمرار
شكرا لكم.

Maybe the techniques explained in Tutorial 57 would work better.
Can you tell me on How to build 2 pararellogram build on each other??

Thank you so much for your prompt reply :) Will definitely try! Wanted to use this in making a handmade card for a friend.
The Pop-Up Channel perfect. the best way to know is to experiment .i can't agree more
How do you make the arm behind the mask?
I'm not sure which bit of the tutorial you don't understand.
Can you provide a link to your book?

Could we get a better view of how the hidden moving arms work? Particularly the one at 3:10. These are super cool and awesome!

Hi,my name is Anna Kate Lowe. How often do you do cards for people?

Спасибо за ваши видео.
Хотелось бы узнать сколько лет вы занимаетесь этим творчеством?
me encanta, aunq me gustaria en español
Donde compro su libro?
Por lo general, puede obtenerlo en Amazon o eBay.
Sir how to do tutorial of 3.24 couldn't understand it
The hidden end of the arm is square - it is glued to the base at 45 degrees to the spine.... Experimenting is the best way to understand.
@@thepop-upchannel4919 I couldn't do it either, I still can't understand it. i´ll keep trying (sad face)
Why won't you show a side view to view the mechanism -_-
0.47 - 0.57 shows the mechanism clearly, then 1.09 shows it with the counter-folds added to the bottom as well as the top of the parallelogram.
wow
AMigo podrias subir de nuevo este video, no corre ni se puede ver
