In this brief excerpt from the NYC MiniMeetup video, two participants, identified as Speaker A and Speaker B, coordinate taking a picture (and possibly a video) of a fellow attendee named Karen. The dialogue is informal and spontaneous, reflecting the casual, social atmosphere of the meetup. Speaker A initiates the request, directs where Karen should stand, and Speaker B responds by taking the picture, commenting on the scene, and showing the resulting image. The exchange highlights the playful, collaborative nature of the gathering.

I want to take a picture of Karen.
Oh yeah, I will. I'll take a picture of Karen.
Karen and I will get together. Okay, you and Karen get together over here.
Oh look, a picture of the two of them over there. Look.
Huh?
How are we going to get the three of us in here? Let's see. I'm going to put it— I can't put it like that. Give me your bag. Oh yeah, we could do this. We'll see, I don't know. See, let's see if we can— What patience, what patience. There you go, I set up the shot. That was something tenuous. What did it call for, what? Tenuous. Tenuous, yeah. Well, okay. All right, though, let me come in on your half and half, one cheek on each. Okay, I'm just coming over here, Annika. Hi everybody. This is video, by the way. Oh, okay. Of course, hello, we should be video recording. Hi, how are you? You thought it was still, but I tricked you. I knew you were good enough now to be able to— I could trick you. It'd be fun. All right guys, this will be a quick video we put up on the tube for later on. Okay. Pasta Baby, Carrie, and me. Hello! There we go.
