Maquettes for High Sun Large scale Bird

Video show maquettes for the large-scale moving bird we created for High Sun Camp near Royston. The design was similar to a pop-up book mechanism - think of the bird’s wings as pages of a book. There was a certain amount of advance planning and trouble-shooting ahead of time on the project, in order to make things run smoothly and keep everyone engaged. The finished bird can be seen in my other related video.
