Make & keep
Make a four-frame flipbook from a photo strip
Turn four clearly different poses into a quick hand-held sequence.
A four-frame strip already contains four distinct poses, so the flipbook will show a sequence rather than a newly invented smooth animation. Make duplicate copies: trimming, stapling and repeated handling can damage the paper.
Prepare repeats
Print several identical copies at the same scale. Cut the same frame from each copy and stack them in sequence, placing the last frame first if you want the action to loop. Align one edge against a ruler before fastening.
Choose a motion
Keep the four original poses in their real order. If you want a looping effect, place a duplicate of the first pose after the last; do not imply that extra intermediate photographs existed. Number the backs on removable slips, not on the image.
Flip and refine
Clamp or staple one edge, then fan the pages with your thumb. Check that each pose appears in order and stays in the page. The change will be a jump between the strip’s real frames; do not call it fluid motion. Uneven alignment causes most apparent wobble.
