Study on the design, production and interactivity of pop-up books

Abstract

To what extent can pop-up books be regarded as timely printed products today? The authors have tried to answer this question by creating and subjecting their own interactive pop-up book to structural analysis and multipurpose examination during their research. They have investigated the limitations and difficulties of production by printing businesses in their quest for efficient technological solutions for the making of pop-up story books for kids. The focal point of their research has been the assessment of the demands of the target audience by presenting a model. Based on the results of this assessment, they have determined the steps of development that are needed to create a full-value story book (the product) from the draft.
