To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Scheduled Jurassic World Rebirth  show playlists on Screenwriter tomorrow and Thursday (content will be transferred to theater 7 tonight) Built and scheduled show playlists for Top Gun and The Warriors (does this need an intro slide??) for their shows on 7/7 and 7/8 + and scheduled the pre-show playlist for Escape from L.A. on 7/3 Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Alec set up for trivia at Trees Lounge this afternoon (I brought up posters and left everything on and in place for Shay and Kevin to switch over to as I was running the print during the start of this event) Three on a Match +  Piano Tooners  short intro and screening in theater 4 went smoothly (save for a brief scramble during the short where I had to swap reels 1 and 2 on their respective projectors since the bulb in projector 2 was not striking...I reached out to Alec and it was a simple fix of moving a wire connected to...

To do this evening/ was completed: Built cue sheets for the coming week. SE titles need to be filled in with credits and Superman on 7/10 hasn't been added yet. Ran reels of Do The Right Thing and Escape From LA, volumes logged. Top Gun, Lurker, Warriors  ingested to LMS.  Sabbath Queen  DCP delivered via thumb drive. Ingested to LMS. Do The Right Thing playlist built. Transferred all Generic_Summer preshow elements to the Share drive but only 5min and 15min show up on the All content page of the LMS, 25min stays missing even though it's been successfully transferred to the drive, so maybe ingest that manually. Mic set in T4, Alec ran loops. Mixer is turned off so turn on before show. **Bumped the 8:35 start time for Materialists to 8:50 to accommodate for the print. You can remove it from the scheduler if you want and manually start it when the time comes or just remember to fast-forward a little bit in the playlist to match the end time on the cue sheet.** Presentation ...

To do this evening/ was completed: I had a follow up screen share meeting with Chris this afternoon, which bled into evening since the sheer amount of automated features in Screenwriter with the POS system, individual houses and so forth works its way up to a lot of new information (I took notes, but next time I'll record everything). I have a much better understanding of templates and the POS on Screenwriter, which I'll go over with Alec on Weds, but for now, please make and schedule the new playlists exactly as we have been doing. What we've been making are Standard playlists and they are absolutely fine. I wanted to look at these features to see what might make our lives easier and what might make them unnecessarily complicated, and the most important goal we had was to just get Kat up and running with direct access to the server, which we did. She was having some trouble this morning, but it was a quick fix. Had her ingest content as a test and it worked! Chris is still...
