How to Fold Origami Camera

Video Transcript

"In this clip, I will show you how to fold a traditional camera, and is an action figure. I just took a picture of you. This is a very simple model. It starts with a blitz base. So with the blitz base folded already, we are going to turn the entire unit on to the other side, and fold another blitz base. We are going to fold a total of three blitz bases, all on different sides. So here is our second blitz base, and then we are going to turn our unit over again to the other side, and do our third, and final blitz base. So this is our third and final blitz base. Now we are going to turn the unit to the other side, and for these little triangles; for the top one, we are just going to push that little point up, and it automatically flattens out into a rectangle. And squash fold that, and do the same thing with our bottom one; squash fold. Now with these points, what we are going to do is kind of unfold the back a little bit, and allow these points to come out flat like this, and invert it; following the creases that it will naturally follow. And then, pinch these points together, so that it has the shape right here. Turn the unit to the other side, and kind of valley fold it up and down vertically. Valley fold it so that these points will come up and meet together in the center, and crisscross the points just a tiny bit, and one of the points; fold to the other side, and one of the points; fold toward you just a tiny bit. And this kind of locks it in place, and to work it we are going to hold it like this, and push on this point right here. And once you do that you've taken a picture with your camera."
