To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Rebecca radioed me that the captions were too low on screen in T4 (OCAP Klara and the Sun ). All the playlists for this had the scope lens/masking change pack before the feature, but the feature is flat, so captions were mostly being cut off. I quickly changed the lens file and adjusted the masking. This was about 3 minutes into the feature. Playlists have been updated. *Also noting that when Rebecca radioed me I assumed it was a sight line thing and speaking too soon I said I wouldn't be able to adjust, but then I quickly realized what was going on and told her I fixed it. -Someone also put my initials in as who built this on the trailer list, but it wasn't me. Also Fjord OCAP playlist for this week only had the lights up cue at the very start of the feature instead of the start of credits. Wyatt radioed me the lights were up for the feature this morning. I brought them down manually and updated the playlist. Preshow Cli...

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built show playlists for Ginger Snaps for both days this weekend + converted and ingested a slide for the Sunday intro and added it to the playlist Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: NewFest intro and screening went smoothly in theater 6; ran into some issues with the spots in theater 1 -- the 803 setting, despite it being specified and in bold on the event memo, was not the correct one according to the NF staff, so I changed it to on the fly to remove the red wash which was present for some reason(???) I mistakenly put up the "Queer Mixer" slide on the bar TVs and the "T4T" slide on the projector screen at Trees, was alerted of the mistake and told (correctly by Alec, I should specify) that a looping video with the T4T slide and other NF content was to be played on the screen and a static T4T slide was meant to be on the TVs ...Galen told me only the still T4T slide was suppose...

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Ran through both NewFest playlists for tonight and made a few adjustments. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Mics are out for NewFest tonight. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Teched Scooby Doo 2 and logged the volume. Ran through the Craft tech as well. Added volume cues to the clips in the tech playlist and spotlight settings are in the run of show doc. Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Maintenance/cleaning: Cleaned out the filter on the Trees projector. It was overheating and shutting itself off, should be good now.

Marquee updated?: Posters updated?: Put up Clayface and took down Your Mother Cleaning lights on for the night?: Projec...

To do this evening/ was completed: Both NewFest events went smoothly. Mics back in the booth. Converted/ingested all of the Craft dragshow pieces and sent them to T2. Downloaded Agora DCP to Share drive, ingested.  Off the Air ingested to LMS. Trees TV/projector started acting up again toward the end of the night. Projector seemed to turn itself off. Turning it back on resolved the issue. Told MOD to let me know if it happened again, no word from them.
