Inspired by this great video (check it out):
vimeo.com/clip:182644

I decided to make an instructional video on how to make an origami fish. Hopefully it's simple enough to follow.

Music: 'Fish' by Mr. Scruff

    way cool!
    how does it look sped up?
    Have you got any fish you've coloured? could do some funky patterns a la readymech.
  • Buck Flashroy 3 years ago
    It's not sped up, but I did pre-fold it which is why it goes into place so easily - maybe that's it. Yeah, funky patterns would be cool. A couple of christmases back my mum gave me some origami paper with animal prints on. I was thinking about using some of that paper for this, but it makes it a bit harder to see what's going on. It's good stuff though!

    "And squash it down" was the best. They never had that in any of the origami books I had as a kid (from which I retained no information). This fish is very cute, I shall have to try it!

    Did you do that in one take?
  • Buck Flashroy 3 years ago
    Yes and no! This was the second time I filmed it because the first time I made it far too quickly and with my hands in the way of what was going on. This was the second time I filmed it and I went straight through all the way. There was only one bit where the paper kept getting caught. It looked a bit messy so I cut some of it out in editing (1:06) but essentially it was all one take.

    can you teach DrPiranha how to make an origami sword to kill origami fish and other paper monsters?
  • Buck Flashroy 3 years ago
    I think I can - afterall, I am a black belt in origami

    Not only was the Oragasmi amazing, I was astounded by your intro titles and text narration! I'm so retarded, I can't make stuff like that! Well...or I'm half retarded, and don't have cool programs :(.

    BRAVO!!!!!!!!!

    The titles aren't nearly as impressive as you might think - they come free with iMovie!
