Origami Basics: Bird Base

This video demonstrates how to fold a Bird Base. Very often diagrams ask you to start with a specific base, so knowing how to fold them is important.

An excellent video. I like how, after explaining the folds for the base, you went on to examine the crease patterns. Doing so makes your video exceptional.

@cam14071 Great to hear you like my take on explaining basics. :)

Your voice is really easy to understand- so clear which really helps. I have made the base- only watching the video once and it really helped! thankyou. Only criticism is that the dark colour of the paper (and it's underside) made it quite hard to see where the folds were but otherwise fab! thanks.

@naomislittleworld Thanks for this. You're probably right that the dark side of the paper turned out to be a bit too dark.

its good the only problem is, is that you don't take time, the lighting is very low, and you don't make sense of it. Sorry for the crappy critisism.

Your comment is confusing me. :) So, what's good about the video then? I agree that the video camera setup wasn't optimal. But I don't think I didn't take enough time for it. What do you mean by I "don't make sense of it"?

Thanks for this. I especially appreciate the precise method. Just used it for folding a base using tissue covered foil, not only more accurate and easier to fold, but subsequent folds were improved.

@Kino0726 Oh I almost forgot, u suck at life.

[untouchblz]

@Kino0726 You seem to be a 12 year old or something. I suck at grammar?!?!? Have you seen the sentences you are typing? "making the fail life"...what the hell is that supposed to be?.. a sentence?? "critisism" (spell check that should be criticism!!!) "its good the ONLY problem is..." If you say "ONLY problem" then their should be ONLY one problem, but you continue to ramble three problems with the video. Go get a tutor!!!! With every comment you post, your ignorance shines brighter and louder.

[Kino0726]

@untouchblz YOU suck at comebacks and grammar. Congrats on making the fail life...

@Kino0726 hit the pause button, turn up your screen brightness, learn english language. After that, this vid should make more sense.
