Concerto For Balloon Artist

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.

TWISTED: A Balloonamentary Trailer

I found this on youtube. It is a documentary about the experiences of different balloon artists. I might just have to go out and get the DVD.



TWISTED: A Balloonamentary is a feature-length documentary, with an animated segment narrated by The Daily Show's Jon Stewart, that explores how eight people's lives are transformed when they discover balloon twisting conventions. We hope you will enjoy this hilarious and heartwarming documentary about passion, salvation, love, death, race, religion, and a whole lot of balloons.

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.

Part 1


Part 2


Here are instructions on how to make a Fireman's Hat. This is a moderately simple hat. It might be a bit difficult for a novice balloon twister.

Since the video in hosted on YouTube, to keep the video from getting blurry, I had to break it in to two parts.

How to Make a Balloon Spiderman On a Stick

This is a simple balloon sculpture for any balloon artist
It requires

• 1 red
• 1 blue
• 1 white
• 1 other balloon of any color

It can be done quickly and easily. Which makes it great for line work or parties.
By having Spidey swing from a stick, you make the balloon much more interactive. Trust me. It is a big hit with any little boy.
Please note that this video is hosted on youtube, so if you can not access youtube.com, you will not be able to see the video.

Funny Balloon Artists Video

I came across this video by Smarty Pants on youtube. It is a pretty funny video about two rival balloon artists that look very familiar.

"Balloon Bass/Juicy Brunette" by Addi

This is just too cool. Watch Addi play a function balloon bass. It is a great idea and I should really learn how to play one. I've made one myself, but am not musically inclined, just ask my humming instructor. It allows amazes me what people can create from a couple of balloons.

80000 balloons and one skateborad equals one great video

Ok, I know this has nothing to do with balloon animals. But there are balloons. I saw this and thought it was pretty cool. Now all I need is a skateboard and 8000 balloons. It sure did look like a lot of fun.
