Learn how to create a pop-up book step by step for the little ones to enjoy, from the initial concept to assembling the pieces
Build a book that allows the little ones not only to play, but also to actively participate in the story. Learn how to create a children’s pop-up book with the designer Silvia Hijano Coullaut, founder of the publishing design and production company, Libracos.
In this online course, he will show you step by step how to develop a complete pop-up book from the creative process to its construction. At the end, you will have in your hands a game book to enjoy with the little ones.
You will start the course by meeting Silvia Hijano, who will explain her process when it comes to creating and seeking inspiration. He will also talk to you about the importance of the book at different ages.
You will learn how to get a good idea for your book, for characters and locations, and how to bring them to life with simple turning mechanisms. Then, you will plan what engineering and interaction elements will be on each page.
You will define the graphic style and fill in an emotion map so that the reader creates a link with the book. Next, you will create a first mockup and explore the types of paper. You will develop the first pieces and Silvia will teach you how to digitize and trace them in Illustrator in a simple way.
Let’s do it! You will build each page of your book. Once you have all assembled, you will assemble them. You will see how to join the pages with gussets that will help you supplement the difference in thickness that you will have between the spine and the back cut of the book.
