Purpose:As i often shoot on location and without a laptop it was difficult to effectively inspect my shots on the fly, but now with my trusty 8.5 inch LCD portable DVD player i have a much larger view for inspection. If you want to use your portable dvd player as a camera LCD viewer, keep on watching. First of all, i'd like to thank David Tajeda for his video on portrait phoography where he displayed his use of a DVD player as a camera LCD. If it wasn't for that video, i probably would have pushed off getting a DVD player for that purpose. In this video, I've also customized my camera bag to be used as a rig to hold the portable dvd player for view. Tools needed 1.Video cable that came with your DVD player along with the RadioShack Gold Series 1/8" Mono Plug to RCA Phono Jack Model: 274-897 2.Radio Shack 16-Ft. Computer Speaker Cable, 1/8" Jack to 1/8" Plug Model: 42-2493 (for extended reach) 3.Panasonic Portable DVD player (any dvd player with a video in should work) 4.Box cutter 5.Velcro 6.Lowepro toploader 75 AW First i will start with the DVD player to Camera connection 1.You will need the A/V cable that came with your DVD player which you will then connect to the RadioShack Gold Series 1/8' mono plug to RCA phono Jack Model:274-897 2.Now take the original 1/8" plug and connect to the DVD player, once that is complete take the the Yellow RCA end with the 1/8" mono plug to RCA Phono adapter and plug to your camera. the video out is located camera left for the Nikon D200. Make sure the plug is securely inserted before use. 3.Now turn on the DVD player and set to AUX 4.Now turn on the Camera 5.click on the menu button for a test and if you see the menu screen on the DVD LCD screen you've succeeded. 6.If you need a little more distance from the Camera to the DVD LCD viewer to allow the art director/ or Photography assistant to view the images from a far. You then unplug the A/V cable connected to your camera and take the A/V cable with the adaptor and locate the Radio Shack 16-Ft. Computer Speaker Cable, 1/8' Jack to 1/8' Plug 7.Now plug the Yellow RCA with the Gold Series 1/8' mono plug to the female end of the Radio Shack 16-ft Computer Speaker Cable 1/8" Jack to 1/8" plug. Make sure it is securely inserted. 8.Now plug the 1/8" end of the 16-ft computer cable extender and plug into your camera. 9.Switch the camera on and click Menu on your camera and wait for the menu screen to appear on the DVD LCD screen. 10.Now you have added another 16-feet to your tethered DVD LCD viewer Second i will go over the DVD LCD Viewer rig 1.You will need the Velcro for this step along with the Lowepro toploader 75AW camera bag. 2.You will then cut out about 4-5 inches of the soft half of the Velcro and saw on to the top cover of the camera bag as you see here. 3.Then you will take the plastic half of the velcro and place the self adhesive velcro to the bottom of the DVD player. As you can see i've cut into different sized pieces so i could avoid covering the screw holes just in case you would want to open the device. 4.Now it is time to velcro these two items together. 5.Place the camera bag down belly down with the bushy velcro portion facing you. 6.now take the DVD player with the plastic half of the velcro below it and open up the screen and prep in a position where once connected to the bag the LCD is at a viewable angle. 7.Now here is the side view of the two items velcroed together. 8.With this particular setup, you have the option of viewing the LCD with the camera bag on it's belly or upright for better viewing when sitting in the car. 9.I hope this was helpful and happy shooting. 10.If you would like to see more mods and tips, please visit my blog at www.mediaonela.com/weekendphotographer 11.Tune in for more How-to videos.

It's for a new song for Nova Lode, my current Offlink CD in progress. The video, however, is what my portable Insignia brand DVD player displayed on it's little LCD screen when it tried to play a CDR I burned the audio to in a standard CD audio format. Weird, huh? Only reason for this that I can think of is when I applied stereo widening and normalization effects to the audio with Nero prior to burning which resulted in a CD-G format that I'm completely unfamiliar with - and so is my DVD player, apparently... :)

One of the more exciting things we got to do at college was to practice a potential career in television, both behind and in front of the cameras. I can recall this practice was in two parts. The first was just reading a piece to camera to see how you came over. I think I read a piece about Star Trek - arrgh, I was only 17 I suppose! I remember the lecturer said I may have a problem getting a career as a TV presenter as I had the kind of face that was "naturally vague". This comment caused enduring hilarity among my fellow potential TV stars. The second exercise was much more ambitions, we were supposed to make our own TV programme. This course requirement caused us much angst in advance as I remember. The class split up into about 4 different teams and the team of people I did this with were just the people I chose to sit around on day one of the course. Our team was - Lorraine Rennie (main presenter), me and Mark Deas (first interview), Ewan Croal and Susan Neilson (second interview), Barbara Penman and Dave Radford (third interview). I remember doing endless preparation for this exercise. We split our little team into sub groups who would interview each other for the programme. Mark would become a good mate in the coming months, but I don't remember him being at college much around this time and he dropped out in year 2. I think this video was made towards the latter half of year one and Mark's enthusiasm for the course was really fading. Our group had a few sessions to get the programme ready, but I don't remember Mark being there much. So our section is pretty scripted, you can see the piece of paper pretty obviously on my lap. It was so scripted, that I think I wrote the questions and the answers for our piece. Mark's one great contribution was the title - "Retirement at 16", we all loved that. Mark was a big socialist at the time, I first met him at a meeting of the Militant Tendency (of all places), so the parts of the piece where he is talking about the final end of capitalism is the only bit I didn't script. I think he is improvising here. Owing to Mark and I being a little under prepared, our piece ran short by mistake, so we asked Ewan and Susie to pad their piece out a bit. This didn't seem an issue for them. Ewan was the guy I sat next to in the whole of my second year of college and he was a real nice guy, never short of a word or two. The letteraset titles took bloody ages to do and it still looks crap. We got this final one the wrong shape too and Don the technician / cameraman had to pan around it to make it work. Our backdrops don't really work either, they are too small in relation to the rest of the "set". Mark and I's is particularly poor. The beginning music was my idea, it's a Song called "Leisure" from XTC's "English Settlement" album. It seemed to fit Mark's "Retirement at 16" title perfectly. "My Generation" at the end was Dave's idea. I played the music from my sister's portable cassette player into the studio mic while Don filmed the leteraset. I happened to know a guy who had just started at the college as a junior technician, working for Don. He was in the year below me at High School and was a really nice guy called John Wishart. I persuaded him to strike a copy of our programme. I think he took this straight from Umatic to Betamax, which was the format of the video recorder we had at home. Betamax was a much better format than VHS at the time, shame it didn't catch on, the picture quality was a lot better. I rented a VHS machine when I moved just behind the college tho 2 Sang Place Kirkcaldy a few months later. I remember this cost 11 pounds a month and this seemed an incredible expense as my whole income was only 70 pounds a month. I quickly transfered some of my favorite Beta tapes to VHS in the Summer of 1985 and this was one of them. This survived on the same VHS tape from 1985 to 2005, when it was transfered to DVD. The faint white lines that scroll up and down the screen are a result of decay on the original VHS tape, it seems I was able to digitise this at just the right time before the VHS became unplayable. The Beta tape still exists, but I'm not sure if I will ever get my hands on a beta machine to play it. As far as I know, this is the only one of the programmes from our year of HND Communication Studies that got copied. Certainly, I'd be very surprised if any other programmes survived this long, copied or not. It's really funny think that, thanks to 21st century technology, this little student programme may now be seen by more people than anyone ever intended. Due to the 10 minute per video restriction on Youtube, this is split into two parts.

Not just because it's Knight Rider, although that's most of it, but I'm also very proud of the timing and such. I've been wanting to do this for a while, but I was having problems filming off of my VCR like I usually do, so i decided to actually film the screen of my portable DVD player. The quality turned out way better than I thought it would. So, this video is basically just about Michael and KITT and their friendship. That's all I really need to say, the music explains it all. The reason there is no title is there wasn't a really obvious place to add one and I didn't want to add it over the top of anything. All images were filmed by me. (used from Knight of the Phoenix, Goliath, Knightmares, and Silent Knight) Song: Rascal Flatts "Life is a Highway" (from the Pixar movie 'Cars')
