I could not get through the advertisements to check that DM video so...
1) An old script, balloon-mod.scm I had to do a quick 'fix-up' for Gimp 2.10 & seems to work ok. Unpack the zip and put balloon-mod.scm in your scripts folder C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\scripts.
Fairly obvious in (old-style) use, you need to set sizes etc, just experiment. It makes a new blank bubble using the background (BG) colour.
I drag-n-drop from canvas to canvas. Otherwise use a Copy-Paste

2) More hands and more versatile but does need practice. (& practice....)
Use the paths tool to make your bubble in straight lines (good for star shapes)
If you want it smooth there is smoothpath.exe in the zip It is a plugin, put it in C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins. Right-click on the path and apply for a rounded shape.
Then from the Edit menu use Fill Path and Stroke Path
