To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Wild Horse Nine  was built without a scope lens/masking cue. Fortunately I caught this while the policy clip was on screen during the sneak peek and ran down to 3/7 to switch over to these via the quick cues since the desktop in 4/6 was running slowly. I updated all first run show playlists with the scope lens/masking cue for this feature and raised the volume as well. Lots of dialogue in this and the mix is very soft otherwise. Preshow Clips/Playlist: I built the pre-show for Halloween  but this is currently without its feature content as we are working on getting those files downloaded and transferred to our system; once this is fixed we can add the film to the playlist Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Not much headway has been made unzipping Halloween from the George Ivan drive (the time is currently 7:36PM but I will update later if ...

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built playlists for Death Spin/Wonderful Life - Lillian Chenelle will be sending the Spotify playlist from the hosts for Death Spin tomorrow as soon as possible. Alec is working this. I reached out to Chenelle and Raekwon just to make sure everything's set for the Q&A timing/playlist needs. - Lillian  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Made several masking updates in all theaters. Reset 2.00 everywhere except Theater 7, which needs 1.33 ( Chronovisor / You Can See Everything ) and 1.66 ( Wicker ), so there's no room for 2.00 at the moment. Cat in the Hat is in this ratio so it will probably need to be set in T3 for next week. -A Sent our updated server information (for all screening rooms as per their email) to the folks at Eikon for Being Heumann and double checked/ updated the certs info on the desktop again since some other screening rooms needed it. - Lillian  Ordering/Receiving ...

They are set for Wishmaster.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Wishmaster playlist set.  Only Living Pickpocket playlist updated with credits info.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: We are missing the standee for Being Heumann. I checked everywhere and sent out an email to house managers/Juan, cc'd projection. I asked Chenelle to forward an apology to the Apple TV folks about this and to see if we could get a new one. It must've gotten tossed out during NewFest, that's my only guess. We should also be getting the holding slide for this soon.  Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Received print of Iron Monkey via one can and one box. I put this in Theatre 1.  Ingested new keys for T7 Edie Arnold (I noticed the old IMS info was in the certs folder for T7, so I added the new ones).  Ingested Godzilla Minus Zero to...
