NPP Projection Admin 9/25

To do this evening/ was completed: Tech'd Juice and Minority Report. Built a playlist for the latter. Volume/lights cues good to go. Looked at Heart of the Beast, Forgotten Island and History of Concrete as well. Good to go. Tech'd Eternal Evil of Asia and Forbidden Planet with Cristina, volumes logged. Put Perfume back on its shipping reels. Can schedule pickup for Monday. Removed old playlists and forecasts from servers, built all A1 10/2 playlists. Noticed that the R-rated 9/25 playlists had a trailer for Heart of the Beast included so I removed that and put You Can See Everything in its place, as that's what's on next week's trailer list. **10/2 playlists still have lights down at end of trailers, not beginning.** No new NewFest content to ingest today, so far.
