This video is a feast for the senses. The consistency of the warm tones in everything (from the wood work surface, to the containers you rest your tools in, to even the color of your nail polish and the cuffs of your shirts) makes the cool punctuation of blue and grey stand out. The sounds of the paper, thread, and glue are almost tactile. The music is at the perfect level. The lighting and use of focus is superb. This is cinema level videography. Absolutely beautiful.

[@flohfantasy560]

Such a beautiful video! I love how the sketchbook came out and I especially like the paper you chose for the covers :) I have a little tip for you, which I picked up from my bookbinding teacher in school: rather than scoring your paper with a blade to get it to fold properly, use an embroidery needle, the back of a butterknife or a letter opener. Something that is not sharp or pointy and won't cut the paper, but rather press it down. This way, your paper has less risk of tearing when you are pulling the thread tight :)

[@PearFleur]

oh that’s a great tip! thank you :-)

That hook-like needle is a suture needle for surgery that I use for horse surgeries lol. It's so cool to see it used in this way EDIT: Thx to the ppl in the comment, I know that this is not the same needle used for surgeries. The shape is the same, but the sharpness could be different. This one is purely for book-binding. Thx for letting me know, guys! 😄

That sounds so interesting! How long have you been practicing? And do you specialise in horses? I started vet uni this autumm, so I am trying to soak up all the knowledge I can get^^

[@ttthildeee]

Hooked needles are a very common tool in bookbinding! You can buy different sizes. I can imagine that needles for surgery maybe are sharper? They're also used in other crafts, like a lot of sewing-related things, ex.; upholstery! (edit: had to edit comment because for some reason it only a part was posted and the words were mixed around 😑)

Actually no, they make some specifically for bookbinding, sewing, various other crafts. Similar, but not the same!

@@BaileyConnorArt lol I see, learned a new thing everyday. It shaped the same way, and in my country, since we're a developing country, we kinda re-use everything that we can get (sometimes we even re-shape syringe needle into surgery needle), I thought this is the same thing, using things for other purposes 😂 Thank you for the correction!

@@diesuperhenne4851 I'm not specialized in horses. Rather I'm more of a Wildlife Vet 😄 the term Wildlife Vet doesn't exist in my country, but I'm more focused in wildlife animals and conservatory medicine, so I guess the closest equivalent in US would be Wildlife Vet.
