A Visit from London!

Last month we had a visitor to the studio from all the way across the pond in London, England.  Eli Dean is a final year student in Interactive Arts at Manchester Metropolitan University and wanted to share her pop-up projects with Robert.  Even though summer is our busiest season at the studio, the timing was right to meet one of the next generation pop-up book makers.  Check out some of her colorful compositions below and drop her a line at: eli_dean17@yahoo.co.uk

After a small tour of our tiny studio and some sneak peeks at the work we are creating here, it was Eli’s turn to conduct an impromptu show and tell session.

Using wonderful papers found at the Paper Chase stores in London, Eli created a fun camping scene.

This colorful home with groovy yard was inspired by some of Robert’s work.  She even gives a credit to him on the lower left tag.

   

These flowers were one of our favorite compositions thanks to the addition of googly eyes.  They make everything more fun!

A pastel mountain rises high above the page and sports a clever pink staircase opposite a raging waterfall.

Each one of the single spread pops, including this bizarre animal in a box, were bound in black cloth covers.  Very classy presentation, indeed!

   

Here is another pop-up scene with a house and trees shown in another pencil dummy that she had brought along.

This ship was making big waves as it pulled into the dock and it made waves around the office as well.  Ahoy!

Eli and Robert were all smiles at the end of the visit and we look forward to seeing many good things to come from this aspiring British paper engineer.  Good luck!
