[music playing] Hello. I'm Shana Sharp. And today, I'm going to make
some of my favorite characters from Trolls. Today we're going to be making
Poppy, Branch, Tiny Diamond, and Bridget the Bergen. Whoo. Let's get started. Because you know what they say-- trolls just want to have fun. [CYNDI LAUPER, "GIRLS JUST WANT
TO HAVE FUN"] (SINGING) Cause trolls,
they want to have fun. We're going to
start off with Queen Poppy, the most cheerful,
optimistic leader of all time. I think everyone
deserves to
be happy. I've got these
balloons ready for her. This I will use to make her
face, her hair, her dress, and even the flowers
on her crown. I'm going to start
with her head. This balloon will be
the color of her hair, and this, the color of her face. I'm going to tie the
two balloons together because your hair is
attached to your face. These parts of the balloons,
they're little extras. So I'm going to rip them
off, and we'll get rid of it. Get out of here, that part. Boo. Now I'm going to
start
on her dress. So I'll use this
blue color here. I'll put a couple of
bubbles down here-- there we go-- and tuck these
bubbles through the legs, and then we'll wrap
a skirt around her. Poppy's skirt sort of changes
color from a darker blue, and then it fades to a
paler blue underneath. Look how cute she's coming out! Arms. Raise your hand if
you love trolls. It's not Queen Poppy until
we give her hair and a face. There, that's kind
of troll-nose-shaped. And there's Queen Poppy-- at least, withou
t a face. Doing the eyelashes here. Look at that. Now I'll put on the
parts of her hair that go in front of her face,
and the flower headband. I'll tie this one
a little puffy, and that will tuck in
right behind her hair here. A-ha--ha. Yay! Look how cute she is! I really love Queen Poppy
because she loves to have fun, she loves to party, she
loves to be optimistic, but she also takes her
responsibility very seriously, and she cares deeply about
the whole trolls community. Yup! We finished Queen
Poppy,
and she looks so cute! But she looks a
little lonely, right? Should we give her a friend? Maybe her best friend? Maybe Branch? OK, I'll help. But I'm still not singing. I have all the balloons
handy here to make Branch. It's going to be branch-tastic. So we're going to use
this nice turquoisey blue for Branch's skin color,
and this dark, deep blue for his hair. Most of the trolls have
ears that point up, but Branch's ears almost
go straight out and even a little bit of a downturn. Great.
He wears brown shorts. Perfect. Very cute. Wait, wait, wait. What's your plan? I'm going to give
Branch crossed arms. He's unimpressed. Trying to bend the balloon. Perfect, like that. And stretch it through his body. We've got Branch here. He's crossing his arms. But I want to see a
little more of his vest over the front of his shoulders. So I'm going to add this really
skinny, little green balloon and add some details. And there we go. And this will be Branch's nose. Looking good. Now I need t
o do Branch's
hair, which just kind of goes straight up. Whoo, that's a long one. Voila! The hair, it is
[smacks] perfect. But we do need a face. Branch tends to have his
eyes a little less wide open. He's a more skeptical troll. And, of course, that little
white sparkle in the eye. I don't know why but it
makes a huge difference. There we have Poppy and Branch. Ah, if ever there were two
friends who were opposites, it would be these two. I like to think that
they both bring out the best in each
other. In Trolls World Tour, we were
introduced to the newest member of the Trolls family-- Tiny Diamond. (RAPPING) Tiny
Diamond is my name. His whole body's
made of glitter, and he'll throw it in your face. I've selected this color
palette to make our tiny friend. It won't be glitter balloons
but it will be shiny. As you can probably
guess, Tiny Diamond's going to be a little bit smaller
than our previous Trolls. Little, tiny cutie face. You make a little
loop here, and that will be Tiny Diamo
nd's
body, and try and make it a little thicker at the
bottom of the balloon so he has a little tummy bulge. Also need to give
him legs and arms. I'll thread this leg
through the loop body and then twist that
back into the feet. And there's this
tummy in his legs. Look how long his arms are! Raaah! This part? We don't need. There we go. Tiny Diamond's tiny body. I need to add his head on. Excellent. Tiny Diamond is
very style-conscious and wouldn't be seen without
his signature yellow glasses. T
hey're not my size. So, of course, glasses
rest on one's nose, so I've got a tiny green
balloon for Tiny Diamond's. Perfect. But we are missing something
in the hair department. Ah-ha, my gosh, you're so cute! Look at this. I do need to draw on the eyes--
this time I'm going to draw them on the lenses
of his glasses-- and a little smile. There he is. [laughs] Tiny Diamond. All right, so far, so adorable. But let's take a
break from trolls and try our hands
at making a Bergen. The Bergens are com
ing! Aaaah! Bridget, she has a
huge character art. She changes. She takes risks. She learns how to love. She learns how to
sing and dance. Let's make Bridget. Bergens are bigger
than trolls, so I'm going to need some
bigger balloons. Ye-he-he-he-es. It's a little tricky to
twist with bigger balloons. Nice Bridget. High five! Bridget wears these adorable
little pink buckle shoes on white stockings. So I'm going to wrap
a skinny pink balloon around the edge
of the shoe, then I'm going to use anoth
er
skinny balloon for her buckle. Too cute. One, two, buckle my shoe. Now that we've got
her body attached, we need to work on her face. Watch. I'm starting to see
Bridget's smiling face here. Now we need two little
pieces of hair coming down over her forehead,
and her crown. And here is our
adorable Bridget hair. Do you think I
could pull this off? So cute! But you do need eyes. It wouldn't be Bridget's
face if it didn't have that beautiful, toothy grin. Aww. Now that's the Bridget
we know and
love. She's completely done-- Queen Bridget of the Bergens. That's it for our
friends from Trolls. We've got Queen Poppy,
Queen Bridget, Tiny Diamond, and Branch. Thanks so much for
hanging out with us and-- oh, would you look at that? It's hug time! Mmm. [laughs] I'll see
you guys next time. Bye!
