NPP Projection Close 11/10

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: The masking in theater 7 seems to have been slightly affected by the projector reset earlier today.  I got a call during the final round ( Wicker at 9:45PM) that the image was playing on top of the curtains and went down to manually adjust. The curtains seemed stuck in the 1.33 position and would not open up to the film's 1.66 so I opted to bring them to 1.78 to minimize the pillar boxing on the sides of the screen. Thankfully only a few minutes had passed and the rest of the film played without any issues. Preshow Clips/Playlist: Rescheduled all shows on the LMS for the remainder of this week and the week of 11/13 in theater 7 + added the show playlist for Austin Powers  to theater 2 for tomorrow evening's event Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Red-Headed Woman intro and screening went smoothly + placed the print on its shipping reels, sealed the canisters, and cleaned both projectors following the show (the c...

To do this evening/ was completed: Scheduled coming week in LMS excluding SEs and Babies playlist.  Went through a lot of tech: NoBudge, Agora, Austin Powers , Castle in the Sky. Volumes logged. Built playlist for Austin, put tech info for NoBudge in the event memo next to the film titles. Inspected reel 6 of Castle in the Sky, Alec did reel five. Presentation Issues: Theater 7 went down in the morning, was temporarily resolved, then crashed again right when the first show was supposed to start. Despite our best efforts Will and I could not get the IMS working in time. We power-cycled a few times and reseated the IMS cables to no avail. I imagine Alec will detail more.
