Book of Coma - Codexion (Codex + Accordion) The Codex Narrative
As described by the illustrator, Michelle Yu, the narrative of Book of Coma runs in 2 ways. One as a linear in the accordion and the other, which is shown in this clip, in a side by side Codex form. Not only do the illustrations join up length wise, they match right in the middle at the fold, linking pages from both ends of the Accordion.
It did take me a lot of adjusting and calibration to get illustrations to flow smoothly, as well as match at the folds. This made the Accordion extremely difficult to align and make sure that the entire book is straight.
But I am rather happy with the results. I will try to make a clip or video of the book running along its Accordion narrative soon.
