69. On This Day, Years Ago, You Emerged From Your Moth…
2 years ago
A young girl realizes it is her friend's birthday and decides to hire a Dinosaur transportation service (by payment of kisses) to gather presents to give to the birthday celebrant who lives cross country.

Karen, this is wonderful. Well worth the time you put into it. Someone should definitely pay you for these talents you have.
Request: more out of focus animation!
You really do love dinosaurs... :-)
good god I can imagine the horror of doing this by yourself. have we perfected teleportation yet?
1) the hand coming in.
2) that fucking clock.
3) OPENING up the paper airplane. When i got to it..i was like..ugh how am I going to do this?
Also I dropped like 3 other scenes because I was getting tired.
I feel ill.
you do this.
you finish it.
At one point i was covered with sweat laying down on the floor ready to give up after i had accidentally kicked the tripod.
:-(
and your kisses.
Take care :-)
Off the subject: I shipped the Marmite to you, and the package came back to me today badly damaged....the jar inside despite the protective bubble wrap, was cracked. I'm sorry, but that's the end of that
Oh my gosh! Are you serious? Maybe it's a sign from the gods saying DON'T TRY MARMITE!!!!!
hahaha
thanks anyway scruffs you're the best.
Patience is one part tears one part sweat one part devotion.
:-)
Just fantastic!
Thank you for your kind words dearest friend.
The clock...oh man i love that part too..not gonna lie. Always wanted one of those felix the cat clocks.
tick tock
tick tock
xoxoxo
It's about to get better.
Trust me.
<3 you
hahaha! I bet Laiken's card was cute...also she's sick remember...so ease up on her.
(intentions were totally to one up her)
haha just kidding.
BTW Karen, my birthday is on February 12th...just giving you a little advance heads-up. :)
haha. My birthday is May 12...so HEADs up to YOU! hhahahaha just kidding.
Wow a whole year to plan something...
hee hee.
And just because you think I'm not gonna make you anything, you leave me no choice but to make you something.
Wow, a whole month to plan something... :D
when the CPKaren is blowing kisses and her shoulder scrunches up on the left - cutest thing EVER. (0:49)
Oh yeah shoulder shrugs ain't nothing to it "forgetta bout it!"
haha
oh P.S. did you like how the pterodactyl had wings like the other dinos. even though he already has wings...
a little humor there for you. hahha
I love the background in the beginning, i love the music, and i love the "camera work". In the beginning its like the close ups and the zooms and pans, reminds me of wes anderson.
The dinos wings were really cool, everything was so cute.
and of course i loove your focus pulls! and the door opening is another cool subtle little 3D element to it.
I think when a video has nice intentions, it will inevitably be even more awesome than normal.
haha
oh man im so tired.
Doing CP animation by yourself is a real pain in the ass. Need to have a CP commune.
happy birthday, charlie!
happy birthday charlie!
hahaha
woop woop
nom nom nom!!!
Happy Birthday Charlie ! You're a lucky man !
Sweet video Karen, and Happy Birthday Chuck !!!!
That paper airplane shot is unreal.
Haha Pterodactyl with extra wings for speed and stability.
Sup wallpaper fabric?
LIKE.
sup fabric in the house we live in when we wed.
haha
This Sufjan song is from A Sun Came!
Thank you for your kind words Mr. Johnson. Take care :-)
Happy Birthday to you, Charlie, too! :D
Take care!

Not the video, cause it kinda sucks but the song. It's the live version of Chicago when he played at my school.

:-)
I hope you're not dying from boredom.
