Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Yeah I'm pretty excited, Hannah already bought her plane ticket to NY so now its just a matter of time. and saving up money for when they are actually together traveling around the US. :-)

By the way its like 3:30AM why aren't you in bed?

Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

It'll be so great.
victoria 4 months ago

shhhh don't scare her away!! ;)
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

she has her ticket, she's pretty much committed no matter what..even if she finds out we are all actually Giraffes.
Cameron Christopher 4 months ago

I'm pretty much flat broke right now, but when you come to stay with me I'll feed you and drive you around!
HannahMai 4 months ago

you help us make this trip so wonderful and that is worth more than any amount of money :)
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

I think meeting all the cool people for Hannah and Victoria will be worth more than any monetary donation.
victoria 4 months ago

This is true :)
charliesteadman 4 months ago

Well done Karen. You will have a great trip Hannah and Victoria, oh and vimeo!
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

oh man I hope so, I'm starting to save up money on my own now so i can do it maybe when they go up to portland.

:-)
victoria 4 months ago

Yeah!! Portland and Chicago will be the two biggest meetups, I think
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

We'll see how finances for me go between now and then, maybe I can try to make it out to Chicago as well :-)
dalas verdugo 4 months ago

Yay, big meetup in Rose City!
Cameron Christopher 4 months ago

I'm going to try to continue on to Chicago as well... I haven't quite figured that part out yet, after I get them to Cleveland... we'll see I guess.
HannahMai 4 months ago

i've been thinking about skipping cleveland and go right up to chicago through indiana (victoria has friends there so we could say hello to those), would you maybe do that with us cameron? then of course, we'd miss out stuff in ohio...
chriskalani 4 months ago

Sweet, someone better tell me when you're in ptown... me and davidxc will be there for sure.
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

I think that what we'll do as it gets closer and dates get solidified is that we will create a mass email list so people in different towns will know about when we can all meet up. Awesome Chris! Take care.
PEIKA 4 months ago

Soxiam 4 months ago

thanks for making this vimeo. i've known about this trip but i really appreciate you taking time to make a video, telling the story in a totally compelling way. bravo.

ps: we should create a support group on vimeo for people who can't stand their own voices. i think i can out-hate you.
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

It was fun to make. haha i was getting kind of sentimental while making it..and spent so much time figuring out what to say that I had to type it all out and read it cause I couldn't remember it all.l

I woke up this morning with a sore throat.

it was a sign...no more voice over narration.
haha.
Cameron Christopher 4 months ago

Karen just heard my voice during our dance party... I really really hate it, but I like it in my head so it's ok.
Capucha 4 months ago

OMG !! If I had to choose only one clip to explain why I LOVE Vimeo, I would choose this one. I am so happy for Hannah and Victoria to see how this project is coming to reality :) I'm all broke from Xmas right now but I will definitely participate to the fundraising ! Bravo Karen, you are wonderful :)
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Aw thanks Capucha. It's okay if you don't donate at all, just the fact that you took the time to watch this means a lot to me and hannah and victoria. :-)
Blake Whitman 4 months ago

SO GREAT. and since we're in the business of community building, we here at Vimeo support you FULLY.

I think this constitutes as a What I Like About You project...
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Thanks Blake. I think during our stickam chat at one point last night the phrase "Blake Whitman for President" popped up.

hahaha. Take it easy man....Whitman..
HannahMai 4 months ago

i am so happy that you support us :)

Stephen Niebauer 4 months ago

Sweet! Nice job on the video, and I will do everything I can to help.
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Thanks, yeah this is what i do with my time nowadays, make videos till about 4AM because I don't like sleep. haha. Too bad we didn't meet up while I lived in Grand Rapids. It's okay, I can live vicariously through you.
Georgie 4 months ago

That is amazing! Karen You Rock!!

I'll try and donate when I have some money soon I hope! While I don't know Victoria well I know that as a vimean she must be a fantastic person and as for Hannah; we all know how amazing she is don't we? :)
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

I think donations are cool and helpful, but most importantly we just want people to know about it so maybe we can meet up with them if we are near them. Too many cool people on here to not hang out with :-) like you mister....psh. haha
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Also I'm glad you credited yourself..i was gonna do that, but I was so sleepy and it was like 4AM..so I opted not to tag the like 30 people's avatars I used. :)
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Hey scruffs thanks for putting this on your channel
Scruff_E_Guy 4 months ago

just trying to give it some more exposure.... anything I can do to help, ya know....:-)
ishan 4 months ago

does greenpeace and amnesty int. know about your skills karen? i think i want to sign up for a k.a.l.d. after effects tutorial.... maybe part of my tuition can go to "the cause"?
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Don't tell them.
Hahaha..

Unfortunately my knowledge of After Effects is very very basic which involves simple things. There are some really really fantastic motion graphics vimeans that will probably be more help that I am.

But if you want to learn really basic things..I will be more than willing to be your mentor.

hee hee

For some reason, everything I read that you type, regardless of content is funny to me. I think it might be your picture.
dalas verdugo 4 months ago

The podcast at creative cow is really good for learning After Effects. The link is on the help page.
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Agreed! Creative Cow saved me through college.

Thanks for posting that Dalas.
victoria 4 months ago

Wow, Karen... !! This is a great video in so many ways. I'm glad you stumbled upon this website. Vimeo is lucky to have you a part of its community.

Thank you for supporting us and our trip!! We'll see you in San Francisco <3
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Beep beep boop and I'll probably see you before the trip :-)

Great idea.
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

Yeah i figured they had nothing to lose, but gain...friendship wise and monetarily
ojo 4 months ago

Hey karen, your voice rocks and if there wasn't so much to tell I would have understood the text the first time.
(was a little fast at the end (forgive the elder)) ;-)
And I agree with capuccha, that this would also be my number one "I love vimeo" video.

This should get a double "like"
Karen Abad loves Dinosaurs. 4 months ago

For some reason I was having trouble recording and ended up cutting a bunch of stuff so at some points it sounds really abrupt or choppy.

You're too kind ojo. Thanks for watching this :-)
Pam Newman 4 months ago

Karen, I love you.

Hannah and Victoria already know I love them, but just for posterity: Hannah & Victoria, I love you guys too!

The video was supurb, Karen. Fantastic stuff.
