Caroline: The Girl Deserves a Camera.

By JoshuaRothhaas (add to contacts)
Adorable Vimeo Icon



If you have been directed to this page/cause then it is probably because you or someone you know loves Caroline Martin (posalootly to her Vimeo friends) and the movies she has made.



The Goal: Enough for a new HD camera by the New Year!



If you need a reminder of how awesome she is watch This!



All of which was done on a terribly low quality Olympus point and shoot (now broken) and/or her cumbersome built in MacBook iSight (not broken). It takes a great mind to make great art. Lets give this great mind a great camera.


Caroline at work




She is a master of conveying a lovely but unidealized reality without pretentious pessimism and is a stickler for details that make us fall in love with every video she makes.



Imagine what she could do with a real (HD!?) camera…

Dear Everyone,

Thank you all so much for your help. You have reminded me personally how amazing people (mostly strangers) can be. More importantly, you have put Caroline one step closer to fulfilling some of the bigger than life creative dreams she has.

We didn’t meet our goal but man-o-man did we raise a whole ton of money! Don’t fret, we are still on track to get Caroline a camera before summer starts (probably over spring break). With this major boost to the creative coffers Caroline couldn’t afford a camera for 1k, but can definitely afford to split the difference with your guys’ $700+

We also Plan to get her 3gigs of ram and an external fire-wire hard drive for all the awesome new file sizes and rendering issues she will happily have to deal with.

There is no thanks I can give big enough to be directly proportional to how happy I am that you all made this possible.

Attempting a good thank you,
Josh

P.s. More info to come once we make the purchase.
