Through the years my production values and editing have just kept improving, and my videos have evolved through many different genres. These days my main channel, <a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/karen\">www.youtube.com\/karen<\/a> focuses on crafting, graphic design, and other random nerdy subjects. I am signed with the network <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigfra.me\/\">Big Frame<\/a>, who help to organize advertisements, product placements, and collaborations. As of the writing of this page, I have over 33,000 subscribers and over 2.4 million video views.<\/p>\n<p>Besides my main channel, I also have a second channel <a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/karenkavett\">www.youtube.com\/karenkavett<\/a>, where I post vlogs and other videos that no longer belong on my main channel. And I also have a third channel <a href=\"http:\/\/karenswrockvideos\">karenswrockvideos<\/a>, where I upload videos of music performances I attend.<\/p>\n<p>I shoot my videos on a Canon T3i with a standard zoom lens and a macro lens.
