Projection Admin 10/21

To do this evening/ was completed: Staff screenings are out o 7shifts, blocked on the calendar and scheduled on the LMS.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built playlists for Wildwood, Klara and the Sun. Finished NF weekend shows.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Setup for both NF events tonight, which should be a breeze. Spotify playlist is all set in T6 on the PC. Same as usual - nonsync. Keep at 3.5. Went over both playlists with Desmond and made a few adjustments so that everything's a little smoother.  Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): We received new preshow content for New Fest, which I added to the playlists.  Received Wildwood DCP via post. Ingested.  Received content for the private event on 10/26. I am DCPing this in 4/6. Please ingest once done.  Continued with Dark Room shorts. We only have one more to go, so once the private event DCP is done transcoding, you can pop that one in ...

NPP Projection Close 10/20 (McKegg mid-shift/Will close)

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Final round in theater 4 failed to start since the show playlists were scheduled too close to one another Around 11PM I got a call on the radio from Desmond about the projector at Trees. The NF slide was still running on the TVs above the bar but not on the big screen. I turned the projector back on but this caused the TVs to display "no signal" over rainbow bars. Once I got Plex working again I tried to power the projector back on but it caused the same issue. I am not sure why this disconnect is happening since both sources were working together just fine before, so I have turned the projector off for the remainder of the party and kept the slide running on the bar TVs.  Preshow Clips/Playlist:  Built a show playlist for Hotel Transylvania   Made adjustments to the NewFest playlists for tonight following their tech earlier this afternoon.  Still a score of playlists that still need to be built including Klara...

NPP Projection Report 10/20 Admin

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Theater 6 is down. The projector is unable to establish a connection with the server. I tried putting in our back up IMS, but the projector still could not establish a connection. After discussing with Jerry at length we think it's a Christie problem, so I pulled logs from the projector and sent them. Waiting to hear back. DMS is also checking if they can provide us with an emergency replacement for tomorrow. Preshow Clips/Playlist: McKegg ran through the NewFest playlists for tonight and made a few small adjustments. There was no babies playlist scheduled in T2 today. I noticed after it started so I adjusted things manually. I feel like this happens almost every week, so let's build this every Tuesday when the film schedule comes out and be sure to schedule it. We do these every week so it should be routine. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: I set 2.00 masking back in T1 for the NewFest program tonight. Ordering...

Projection Close 10/19 Lil

To do this evening/ was completed: Jack has been having some medical hiccups today, so I stayed on to run the screenings (especially seeing as how Will called in sick, too). I let Jack go home a little early as he's got a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I've checked in with MOD to let them know that I'll be remoting in for the rest of the evening. Notes on New Fest below. I am heading out tonight at 10:15. Presentation Issues: ONE NOTE: I got a call for You Can See Everything last round in T3 tonight that the masking did not execute for 1.33 in T3. For the life of me, I cannot remember if we've got any other ratio programmed in there atm for either a previous first run or a New Fest show, but this should be a quick fix in the morning (I am little too sleepy to do this at the end of tonight). I'm assuming the masking preset just needs to be written again, or perhaps it was just a random hiccup. I manually adjusted it super fast, so it's fine for the rest of t...

Projection Close 10/18

To do this evening/ was completed: I think it's time to come up with a different solution for ADA in T2 for that section of seats (which will hopefully result in being able to take out individual chairs, which I think we can do). Took the three out and Wyatt brought up chairs from the bar for the other patrons next to the folk that needed the seat out. We did this swiftly, all things considered, but it would be nice to finally have a more aesthetically pleasing/comfortable solution.  Closed captioning device taken out and put back.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: NF all set, but we'll go over things Monday.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Received the T4T mixer slide. I'll take a look on Monday.  Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Received and ingested Ginger Snaps to the LMS.  Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Maintenance/cleaning: Cue shee...

To do this evening/ was completed: Vampire's Kiss went smoothly. Rewound for tomorrow. One note about the print, or projector one: had to refocus on projector one at least once during each reel. Just a heads up. Continued on with converting DarkRoom shorts to Share drive. Finished building 10/23 A1 playlists. Note about Fjord : The CCAP DCP subtitles the English dialogue on-screen.
