Background
For this assignment we were supposed to build off of a pop-up cube. I was not inspired by the cube. I did not do that.
In class last week we learned about pull tab mechanisms. My thesis deals with mechanism and self portraiture, and I was really really inspired by this music video showed in class. I thought I would try to mock up what a paper self portrait might look like.
Process
I followed this tutorial from the Pop-Up Channel to create the mouth mechanism and kind of free-balled the eye tab structure. Here are some process shots.
Final Product
Valentines for my love
I also created this pop up valentine for my boyfriend following this awesome tutorial.
