Ipod nano v3 video

Advantages: Everything, good sound, good picture quality, good battery life
Disadvantages: Its quite pricey but worth the money

...Introduction At the begging of December I decided to treat myself to a new iPod. I had previously owned the iPod nano version 2 and I was impressed with it and decided that I would go for the third version of the iPod. When I got the iPod I had to check id been given the right thing as the box it came in was so small you would expect that it would have a necklace in it or something, but I had indeed got the what I had ordered. Packaging The iPod was packed in a hard plastic case which was taped up and quite hard to get into. The iPod was then on a plastic board which help the iPod in to a secure place so that it wouldn't get bashed about. The plastic board was resting on a small cardboard sleeve that contained the USB cable, earphones, instructions, warranty details and some stickers with the apple logo on. Setting it up...

Tape (2001)

Advantages: Ethan Hawke - Sweet Use Of Dialog - Richard Linklater - UMA
Disadvantages: Not much - That Vinces' bag of beer is not presently in my room...

...Ever since I watched "Waking Life", I became a huge fan of Richard Linklater. The magical thing about Waking Life was the fantasy trip (seeing as how its real life footage, that was converted into animation) that you experienced, while listening to dialog about very important and profound subjects. Then when I viewed "Before Sunrise" I not only was cemented as a fan, but gained great respect for the awesome way that he directed dialog. In "Tape", he has shown the unlimited possibilities, even if you are limited in materials. For "Tape" is a low budget movie that takes place completely in a motel room. But holds the power of a big budget film, both cinematically and creatively. Tape is... This film is based on a 1-act play, with only 3 characters. Tape begun as an off-off-Broadway play. All taking place in Access Theater's 5th...

Got Any More Old Tapes Laying Around?

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Takes a while for the bangers to come in

...Soon after his ?Stillmatic? album came out, in 2002 the New York MC Nas decided to bring out more material as ?The Lost Tapes?, in which he was seen to (rather than come out with a brand new album) compile a collection of all the best tunes which hadn?t made their way onto ?...I Am?, ?Nastradamus? and the 2001 album which reminded people why he created such a buzz with his 1994 debut release. 1. ?Doo Rags? He gets the album going with a fresh tune to guide listeners in. It is a calm one and features some gentle production to ease people on here as he gives you a chance to just enjoy life with a feel-good recording here. It is a tune which reflects the fact that here he was just messing around this material and came up with a light tune to escape what you typically get in a rhyme set from the Queensbridge native. **Four Stars** 2...

Review of Lost Tapes Vol.1, The [PA] - Nas

8mm Tapes are so last year!

Advantages: Good quality tapes that will work and last
Disadvantages: Very dated with better SD Card or Hard Drive options

...I initially wondered why people would be looking to buy these tapes, and if they do, whether it is time to update the camcorder to an affordable SD Card or hard drive version. However, if 8 mm tapes still rock your boat, then the Sony tapes work a treat. There are two kinds of Sony 8mm tapes, the 60 minute (Pack of 3 = £11.99) and 90 minute (Pack of 3 = £21.99) and weigh about 200g per tape. These are lightweight and portable and come in sealed plastic casing with good design covering. You can trust the Sony brand as a leading manufacturer in the video and audio market. The quality of the product is excellent and durable. It will fit snugly into the camcorder without sticking and you will be ready to go. The output very much depends on the quality of your camcorder. What goes in comes out. It will also make a difference if you...

Review of Sony 8mm Camcorder Tape

Tape - buy the DVD.

Advantages: cool, stylish, simple, convincing
Disadvantages: Set entirely in a motel room

...Adapted from a one act, three character play by Stephen Belber, ?Tape? ought to be considered a landmark in low budget film making. Set entirely in a seedy albeit comfortable motel room in Lansing, Michigan, the feature opens with quirky shots of Vince (Ethan Hawke) drinking beer, doing press ups, and jumping energetically around his two bedded room, dressed in boxers and a vest. When old high school friend Jon turns up - a handsome, ambitious, up-and-coming film director - their past is explored through slick, natural dialogue and a convincing rapport. But as the nature of their relationship is unfolded, so does Vince?s ulterior motive, as he becomes curious to know more about a dubious incident that occurred ten years ago, involving ex girlfriend Amy. So begins the film. You?d have thought a film so limited in setting and cast would...

Review of Tape (DVD)

Sex, drive and a video tape

Advantages: Quite funny, some wry looks at teen flicks,
Disadvantages: not as funny as the film that inspired it

...Road trip is a homage to the teen rites of passage movie that was inspired by a scene from National Lampoon's Animal House, where some of the fraternity members were in trouble and decided that the timing was perfect for a 'road trip'. This film is based around Ithaca College, and the story is told as a narrative by a guy (Barry) who is showing prospective new students and their parents around the campus. Some of the people complain about his lack of knowledge about the campus and he informs them that Ithaca was the scene for one of the most incredible stories ever told. The story centres around the relationship between Josh and Tiffany who are studying at universities over 1800 miles apart, and communicate mainly by video tape and the telephone. Tiffany isn't answering Josh's calls, and he believes that maybe the relationship is...

SEX, LIES and VIDEO TAPES

Advantages: Plenty of laughs, some very good performances.
Disadvantages: None really

...there) and end up making love, the problem is, Beth insisted in filming the event. Well, as you can guess, Josh’s video diary and the video containing his sexual encounter with Beth get mixed up, and the wrong tape gets sent to Tiffany, to make matters worse (actually this is a blessing in disguise), Tiffany’s Granddad has just died. So what can he do? There is only one thing to do, Josh along with three of his College buddies E.L (played by Seann William Scott), Rubin (played by Paulo Costanzo) and Kyle (played by DJ Qualls) decide to drive across the country, in the hope of getting their hands on the tape before Tiffany gets back from her Granddads funeral, this gives them three days. As you can imagine with these type of films, they get up to all kinds of trouble and mischief, which results in some hilarious laughs...

Review of Road Trip - Unseen And Explicit (DVD)

It's a superb tape deck! But nothing else!

Advantages: high sound quality, diverse functions, record to tape mode, record from tape mode
Disadvantages: usless instruction manual, useless recording programme, not all cables supplied

...The sound quality is good, so is the recording quality. The look and design are brilliant and so is the durability! It's an extremly good cassette deck with a level meter indication feature as well as noise reduction and dubbing which are just the start! In my opinion however, this should just be sold as a normal tape deck as the only real feature that lets it down is the transfering "2PC" mode which is actually the main idea behind this deck! Disadvantages As described previously, this tape deck has only one real disdvantage and that is the transfering of a tape to computer media. The software itself seems reasonable enough at first glance since the CD-ROM media actually includes two programmes: a music editing programme called audacity and also the main feature which is the media converting programme. This programme is...

Review of ION TAPE 2 PC USB

Sex, pics and video tape.

Advantages: informative, interactive, and not seedy
Disadvantages: not for the fainthearted of for younger people

.... through the ages. In exploring the medium of photography there is a special focus on how titillation has developed - from the barely risqué to the fully explicit, and similarly how the medium of film has been used down the ages. This being a retrospective, there is again no real mention of the DVD age, but the role of the video player and its propagation of porn, and it making pornographic films "affordable" by the masses is one item looked at in detail. Times have clearly changed from when film projectors were hired out to groups of gentlemen with several reels of film for them to watch. Before anyone accuses me of neglecting the focus of my visit ? I was slightly disappointed ? the artwork which was Beardsley-esque was far from abundant - most of the etchings were certainly not Beardsley or even similar, and there was nothing in...

The Explosion - Black Tape

Advantages: Many great Pop Punk gems
Disadvantages: Probably wont appeal to those that don't usually go for Pop Punk

...The Explosion is one of those 'The Next Big Thing' branded bands - and the thing about these bands is that sometimes it happens for them, and sometimes it doesn't. However, in most of the cases where it just doesn't happen, the band isn't particularly great - this can't really be said of The Explosion. With 'Black Tape,' The Explosion has produced an album that although not entirely original, is full of substance, energy and excitement. There are many great tracks on display on this album that make The Explosion stand out from the pack and seem like a shining star in a sky of monotonous generic bands. This album kicks off with 'Deliver Us' which in some respects is a bit of a bad move because I'd say that this is probably one of the weaker tracks on the album. There is some heavy distortion on the guitars, and it doesn't really do...
