Roll-Up/Pop-Up (RUPU) Workshop with Shawn Sheehy (Online)

Schedule: Mar 12 & 13, 2021 -- 9:00am - 2:30pm (PT) with breaks; 
10:00am - 3:30pm (MT); 11:00am - 4:30pm (CT); 12:00pm - 5:30pm (ET); 
Registration deadline: Feb 24, 2021 

You have explored the pop-up how-to books. You're ready to make your own pop-up project. You are stymied by the question: "How do I adapt these classic, foundational structures to make MY OWN structures?" This workshop will help you think through that problem by exploring five different structures at three levels: foundational, transitional, and transformational. And if that weren't enough, you will explore an innovative roll-up binding approach (think scroll rather than codex) for the fifteen pop-up folios. In the end, you will have a compact, bound collection of study models that will propel you to the next step of pop-up invention. Beginners are welcome!
