Looking at Flickbooks

I know that I want to create a flick book for my final piece for Weird and Wonderful so I have been looking into the history of a flickbook, websites that could make flickbooks for me, how big to have my flickbook and how to handmake one.


What is a Flickbook?

A flip book or flick book is a book with a series of pictures that vary gradually from one page to the next, so that when the pages are turned rapidly, the pictures appear to animate by simulating motion or some other change.

The History of a Flickbook

The first known time of the flip book/flick book was when it appeared in September 1868 when it was taken over by John Barnes Linnett under the name kineograph (another name for flip book or moving picture). These were the first form of animation before any computers or technology.

Possibly Bobs Books I have got in touch with them and waiting for a reply


How big should I have my Flickbook?

Most flick books are normally very small but after having a conversation with some people they have said maximum of A4 but A5 would look quite nice.
