Make a flip book

Self-promotion is a challenge that every creative has to face. You need to grab a prospective client's attention, and quickly demonstrate the strengths of your work before they move on to the next mail-in in the pile. However, if you concentrate your efforts on creating a unique piece of marketing, you can capture the imagination of whoever receives it and win pride of place on their desk.

A flip book is a devilishly simple device that is hard to resist picking up and looking at. This tutorial concentrates on using Flash then getting hands-on with cutting, folding and sticking paper together. The final result shows what can be done with some time and effort, and this will definitely be appreciated. Check out these top examples of flip books to be inspired.
