A young balloon artist makes balloons while a live orchestra accompanies him. It is very interesting to see the emotion that is associated to the balloon sculpture displayed in the music that is being played.

We hope you will enjoy this hilarious and heartwarming documentary about passion, salvation, love, death, race, religion, and a whole lot of balloons.

Their balloons squeak less than other brands. They also come in a resealable bag. This makes the bags easy to store and prevents balloons from falling out of the bag after it as been open.

Making a Balloon Ninja Turtle

This balloon instruction was request by TruckerJunk on the Balloon Artist Forum.

The Ninja Turtle is made from

• one red balloon - the mask
• one goldenrod balloon - the shell
• three green balloons

If you make the Ninja Turtle smaller, you can probably get away with using only two green balloons. Also, to add a bit more detail, you can use a brown balloon for the back of the shell.

Balloon Entertainment Show

Update: This video has been removed from youtube. Apparently David Deciron companied that Adriano Perelli's show copied from one of his shows and requested the youtube remove it.

I came across this video while scanning Youtube for balloon inspiration. This video stars Adriano Perelli, i assume. I don't really know, I can't read Italian. Never the less, Who ever this guy is, he did a great job in his performance.

I really like how he integrated the music and the lights in with his balloon twisting actions. It was quite impressive. It shouldn't be that difficult to create a music track for a show.

I also liked how he had some balloon creations already made and tucked away to use in his performance. This allowed him to switch between them quickly. No of them were that difficult and probably only took a few moments before the show to make.

The result was a very entertaining balloon show that is certain to impress anyone in the audience, even another balloon artist.

New design for Balloon Animals Site

This is the new design for the Balloon-Animals.com home page. I will be merging all the separate blogs into one blog. Certain articles and features will be highlighted on the homepage.

You may notice a Main link for the "Members Area". This is just a idea at the present moment. No members' area exits yet, but it will soon.

This section will probably be a monthly subscription designed for the balloon artist that want more complex instructions. There will also be a place for subscribers to display images of their balloon creations

Also, Balloon-Animals.com now carries balloons made by Betallic. Their line of entertainer twisting balloons is called Betallatex. They make great balloons, and if you haven't tried them you should. I especially like that the single colors come in packages of 50 instead of a hundred. This is great for the hobbyist who doesn't want to invest to much money in a large bag of balloons.

So if you need balloons, check out the our balloon twisting supplies store.
