Video: "How I Create Sheldon"

DAVE! Both Daves!
This video is amazing. The music and dialog is clever and fresh but at the same time feels comfortable. And even though I've been interning for a while now, I didn't realize how much work goes into the strip, and I certainly never knew about the eraser spinner. You learn something new everyday :) Awesome job guys. Make more videos! On what I don't know...I don't think a video about shipping would be very interesting.
Blessed!

Wow, that's great! There are so many ways people can make videos like this, and most of them are terrible. :P

This had a really nice, light vibe, and was very clear and informative, good job Dave and Dave.

That's totally awesome!

Love watching these "how I made..." videos. I watched it once. Loved it and I'll probably watch it a hundred more times. Thanks for sharing... great video job and I like Sheldon even more now. THANKS KELLET!!!

Arr, you rock

Dave was referring to the habit of Al "The Line King" Hirschfeld of hiding his daughter Nina's name in his drawings [alhirschfeld.com]:

The number of NINAs concealed is shown by an Arabic numeral to the right of his signature. Generally, if no number is to be found, either NINA appears once or the drawing was executed before she was born. The NINA-counting mania is well illuminated when, in 1973, an NYU student kept coming back to the Gallery to stare at the same drawing each day for more than a week. The drawing was Hirschfeld's whimsical portrayal of New York's Central Park. When the curiosity finally got the best of me, I asked, "What is so riveting about that one drawing that keeps you here for hours, day after day?" She answered that she had found only 11 of 39 NINAs and would not give up until all were located. I replied that the '39 next to the signature was the year. Nina was born in 1945.

Thank you for creating this video. It was entertaining and very informative. I salute you!

Wow, Dave and Dave, that's fantastic. It gives me a lot more appreciation for your strip and what you're doing out here.

Thanks!

This is awesome, I spent this past Sunday buying the tools Dave recommends and was checking YouTube for something just like this and then the very next day its here! I was even trying to figure out where Dave gets that size board and was beginning to wonder if he cut it out of a larger size and then he explains it on the video, lol. Huge thanks to both Daves for this!

That was awesome. I love seeing how things are made, and you guys did a great job putting it together.

this is a fabulous vimeo--err, video. we should all be so lucky as to have cartoonists like Dave around to entertain us! THANK YOU, Dave!

I really enjoyed seeing this video. Thanks to Dave for the well put-together footage and editing.

Might be the most fun "how to" comic video I've seen! Really enjoyed the extremely conversational interview!

Fantastic video. And really well presented!
