To do this evening/ was completed: Staff screenings are out on 7shifts, the LMS and the calendar (fyi FOH meeting means we have one round of screenings on Friday and another on Monday). - L Cinema meeting went well! We have our first runs for this new week, and we should be getting Brooklyn Dream no later than 10/5 (we followed up with them today). In addition to that, we're just waiting on Attack the Block (which is Sony, so it'll get here a lil down to the wire as per usual), then for the private event on 10/8 Chenelle is still waiting to hear back from the hosts content wise. - L Friendly reminder there's manual starts in T7 today! - L Also please fill out the holiday preferences form as soon as you can, thanks!

To do this evening/ was completed: No update on the bird situation, at least as of 10 pm. Scheduled first four days of coming week in LMS, excluding Your Mother x3, which still needs a playlist. Built and scheduled both Gotham Shorts programs. *Note*: I could not find the last short for Program 1, We're Not Done Yet. I see it was tech'd and probably I'm overlooking it but right now it's not in the playlist so we need to be sure to add it tomorrow. Zeism went smoothly. We ended up skipping the intro. DJ equipment broken down at the end of the night.  **The last intact Captiview device is no longer intact, the bottom clamp is fully detached from the rest of it.** Took down old brunch and 35mm letters, new brunch letters up. 35mm coming soon. **Got a call from MOD about the showtime display board not showing everything. 3/7 Lenovo computer was pretty much unresponsive save for some program that I couldn't really use (this program was not on the regular home screen but ...

To do this evening/ was completed: T2 leak desisted as the night went on. The booth is dry. Started scheduling Express Saver pickups for our outgoing prints but the price for each print was listed at over $300, which is a little bit higher than what we usually pay, so I held off on making the shipments, but I still brought the prints down to the side entrance. If you ship in the daytime tomorrow, they still need zip ties. Will make Gotham playlists tomorrow.
