Hi Malik the magic guy with expertvillage.com. So now I just want to talk to a little bit
about developing characters and putting things together using your creativity. I've shown
you all kinds different ideas like this guy. You know I've showed you this guy. Now this
was an example of just some different balloons that I put together with some different shapes.
This actually was based on a different design but by changing up the balloons I use I made
a completely different character. You can certainly use one of these to make something
or in the winter time you can use a one balloon body or a two balloon body. You can even get
even a plain five inch white round tie that to this. You wrap it and wrap a 260 around
it and give it a scarf and then you got one of these. They are making balloon now with
some character faces on them. That is somebody you can recognized. This is a fun you can
do this with you can put this on a hat. You can make something with giant eyes and a tiny
body that would be really funny. One thing I want to talk about for one minute is how
much a little detail can add to the character. Like this really didn't come together until
we put on the nose. So really even just adding just a small piece like the eyes and the little
dots for the whiskers can really make this into you know a big deal as far as detail.
Same thing with the duck. Just by changing the beak we can make this into a different
bird. If we took the arms of and use the bunny ears and made it some wings it would be a
totally different kind of bird if this had a straight section. So what you want to do
is just practice using the different twist, adding balloons on in different places, see
what kind of characters you can make up. Watch TV look at there shapes of there body's see
the things that you can make with what you know using the two balloon body, the barbell
body, some way to add eyes, have fun with it experiment and you come up with some cool
characters of your own.
