Fold

Fold prints every picture on a sheet of paper, folded one of six ways and lit by your scene. A waiting picture is folded tight and grey; the active one unfolds flat into full colour, keeping a few soft creases, and folds back up when it leaves.

How it works

The folded sheet is a real surface, so the lights of the scene draw every ridge and valley. Fold type picks the fold:

• Accordion: equal panels folded back and forth.
• Herringbone: a zig-zag fold that shrinks the sheet both ways, in the style of Miura-ori.
• Hand fan: pleats pinched toward the bottom edge, opening like a fan.
• Scroll: rolled up and unrolling across the sheet.
• Page curl: curled from a corner and uncurling flat.
• Crumpled: crumpled into ridges that smooth out as the paper is pressed flat.

In Press mode the cursor presses a gentle dent into the paper.

Settings

• Panels: how many panels a picture is folded into, the scale of the fold.
• Folded: the fold angle of a waiting picture (accordion, herringbone, hand fan).
• Creases: the soft creases a flat sheet keeps.
• Roll radius: the radius of the scroll and the page curl.
• Crumple: how deep the crumpled creases are.
• Change time, Wave and Slant: the speed, softness and angle of the change wave.
