Third - Create some drawings for any reoccurring patterns that you may encounter making your flipbook. I had this happen to me several times as I was making my book so I highly recommend doing this. This will not be visible as you are flipping through your book and if your pages ever get mixed up, it will be a simple fix. All of the time can be saved if you just simply number the backside corners of the pages as you go. It really is so annoying if you accidentally mess up the order of the pages and spend hours of your time sorting through the minor differences to try and reconstruct the story.
Second - As you are drawing each individual page, make sure that you are numbering each page as you go in the corner. (This may not be an issue if you don't have massive thumbs like me ^^) (Picture 1) Also, be sure to leave a little space on the right so your thumb doesn't obscure any of the drawings as well. Instead, make sure you are drawing on the right side of book. We don't want all of your hard work to be for nothing. Here are a couple of tips that I have found to be helpful to avoid a total headache during the process of making your very own flipbook.įirst - when making a flip book, there will be a section of the pages that will not be visible as you are creating the book (Picture 1) If you end up drawing in this space, you will not be able to see what you've drawn as you are flipping the book. Whatever you choose, make it your own! Your ideas could be based off of something or it could be something totally unique to you! Whatever it is, it will be great! I thought that it would be a fun idea to create mini-story out of it. And when this little game would pop up, it would provide some momentary joy as your internet would try and find its way back from the twilight zone. For example, my internet this last week has had problems working and when that would happen, I would keep seeing this dinosaur pop up that we all know and sometimes love (he isn't always appearing under the most enjoyable circumstances). Inspiration for these types of books can come from the simplest of places.
However, if you want movement, frame changing, or a story to be told through it, then its going to take some thought and planning. If you want to make a grade school ball bouncing type book then there really isn't too much thought or complication to it.

Also, feel free to play around with different angles and projectile motions to make it your own!ĭepending on what kind of flip book you want to make, this could be the easiest or the hardest step for you. The sequence above even numbers the frames for you so I would recommend giving that a try if this may seem a bit daunting. Also, you don't have to worry about replicating different images over and over again, but rather just one image a couple of times. If you are struggling to come up with an idea for your flipbook, I highly recommend starting with the ball animation (Picture 2).You can even use the photo I have here as a reference! It really drives home the principle of animation and it still looks fantastic once it is completed. For the sake of this Instructable, we would like to achieve something similar to the ball dropping - nothing too complex but still very visually appealing. ) When done properly, it looks like an image comes to life or is actually moving. This can be rather difficult when drawing complex images like a face frame by frame, (Picture 1, ) but also can be rather simple - like a ball dropping (Picture 2. The key to animation is replicating an image over and over again with slight variations in order to capture a moving visual sequence.
