https://jamroompodcast.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/jam-room-19-robbie-furman.mp3 We are thrilled to bring a major player in balloon design into the Jam Room this week. Robbie Furman was the creator of the Lootles DVD series, and is always looking for ways to do large builds efficiently. We get Robbie’s take on innovation, and giving credit where credit is due. (He does this with great respect for Larry Moss’ work in faces that pre-date the Lootles.) Robbie’s focus now is on developing the business end of balloons, and his Twisticology events are best described as intensive seminars rather than conventions. Robbie pulls no punches, and gives his honest assessment of some issues he sees in the industry. But he is no curmudgeon, instead anyone who’s met him will describe him as generous and giving to a fault. ————————————- Twisticology 2 information can all be found here. Robbie’s DVDs are sold through Balloon Videos. Many can also be found at T. Myers, just search Furman.

Episode 19 – Legendary Robbie Furman

Robbie Lounged with LannaLee and got a couch!Here is the sixth part of a six-part series featuring those special people who make art and entertainment out of folding air into latex balloons. Our conversations centered on making a living doing art, how they started in the biz and their creative processes. Laypeople and twisters alike will enjoy these fantastic conversations. Robbie tells Lanna about his missionary work, how he loves to help people, and his simple creative process. Robbie and Lanna geek out about balloons, while Robbie explains how he got started twisting. Robbie makes Lanna cry. And he anwers 10 questions. Robbie Furman Originally from Parsippany, New Jersey Robbie Furman, CBA has been working with balloons for over 20 years.  His original designs and techniques have become the mainstay of many balloon decorators and artists the world over. As a small boy, Robbie saw his first twisted balloon at a birthday party and told his mother he wanted to make balloons when he grew up.  His mother quickly replied…”Yes Dear, I’ll remind you…now go play” Well, his mother forgot to remind him, but years later, while working in a used book store, Robbie found a copy of Balloon Magic, by Marvin Hardy- and as they say, the rest is history. With this new love and knowledge of balloons, Robbie started volunteering at various non-profit events and, after several years, had a calling to become a full-time volunteer. He dedicated a year and half of his life to missionary work in San Diego and also served in the Domestic Peace Corps.  During that time, he used his balloons to put smiles on many peoples’ faces. As a result of these experiences, he had a chance to try new things with his balloons and venture into the Deco-twisting world full-time. Robbie is currently based in the Northern New Jersey area, where his unique style has allowed him to decorate for thousands of events over the years.  His balloons have been seen on ABC’s All My Children, One Life to Live, Live with Regis and Kelly, Ugly Betty and Good Morning America. Over the past several years, Robbie has been teaching his Deco-Twisting style to thousands of students around the world.  Most recently Robbie has traveled to Israel, France, Italy, Colombia, Japan, and England.  Robbie’s passion and desire is to share his balloon knowledge and enthusiasm with those around the world.  Recently, Robbie was awarded the Golden Light Award, given in honor of the late Linda Bruce.
