NPP Projection Close 7/6

To do this evening/ was completed: I took down the brunch letters to make way for the marquee rental but wasn't able to start with the rental letters as the rain picked back up, so that will have to go up tomorrow morning. All the President's Men went smoothly until the last reel. Halfway through the reel, the lamp went out. I called MOD and stopped the show, put house lights up, MOD made an announcement about the lamp. I couldn't unlock the lamphouse door to investigate, and simply turning the breaker on and off did nothing, so I just transferred the reel to the other projector and picked back up where we left off.

Apparently someone sprinted out of the theater when the lamp went out an...

NPP Projection Close 6/3

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Heatwave woes and failing A/C units continue to challenge and punish us in theaters 1 and 3 this evening (but hopefully not for the whole weekend); I kept in contact with management as needed but there was little to be done on my end as the fix was in progress and guests were made aware Preshow Clips/Playlist: Lowered the volume for the bonus footage at the end of Backrooms  since it sounded very loud at the feature volume setting (I doubt this was mixed the same but the drop from 5.0 to 4.0 feels better since enough of the crowd seems to be leaving during the credits) Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: World Cup coverage continued at Trees Lounge throughout the evening Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Posters and lobby cards for the Rozz Williams event on 7/7 were delivered and stored behind 3/7 Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Asset tracking doc updated/c...
