About the video: Combination of mobile elements
Overview
“You are going to discover one of the main secrets of mobile books: knowing how to combine simple mechanisms to create multiple scenarios full of dimension. It is very important to take into account where we are going to place the engineering so that they all work together. The folding space must be respected, making the most of the sheet to be able to create complete scenarios. We are also going to discover that using similar mechanisms can give us very different results. I encourage you to carry out the activities of the unit in which I want you to change sizes, shapes ... and try to combine mechanisms by altering my reality so that you create your own. This is sure to give us great surprises.”
In this video lesson Silvia Hijano Coullaut addresses the topic: Combination of mobile elements, which is part of the Domestika online course: Advanced Techniques for Creating Pop-Up Books. Learn different mechanisms to create your own three-dimensional book with multiple settings.

In Tasks, you have information so you can all do your own combinations and learn from each other's work. We'll start with a combination using the V-mechanisms. I told you that you can put several layers of mechanisms if they have the same angle. In this case, I'll...”
