To do this evening/ was completed: Let's please keep the inspection reports folder on Google drive organized. You're more than welcome to make a folder for the month if you need to. Thanks. Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Richie Rich went well. Play this on Dolby A tomorrow, even though it's SR as printed on the leaders. It sounded better this way during the tech. Also, this will be preceded by the "Chariots of Fur" short which is on a separate reel next to Richie Rich under the rewind bench. Same specs as the feature, 1.85/Dolby A and it has changeover cues. Rewound the print onto house reels and cleaned the projectors. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Walter dropped off his The Master trailer, which didn't have countdown or tail leader. I added some and put it on a house reel. This will play before the Uncut Gems screenings. Ordering/Receiving (content): Ingested Follow That Bird to t...

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey folks, just a friendly but important reminder to everyone when running events - if you get a call to take out a seat or assist with a captions device and are running a show that requires your presence in the booth, please ask MOD to help so that you can stay present. There's no need to risk it, so please do not leave the booth when you have cues to hit. Thanks! - L Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Finished the 5/01 trailer sheet by building all SE shows with the exception of The Lost Boys, since we have yet to receive feature content.

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Checked on rounds of  Michael and Mother Mary  and both sound fine at 5.5 Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Kevin Geeks Out in theater 1 this evening. I had to adjust the spotlight during the tech at the host's request since it was still covering too much of the screen. I have given up on trying to hear what he and his guests are saying (the mics are barely audible when used wirelessly from the booth even with the port glass open, unless you're holding your head out of it) and resorted to using the images on screen as a means of triggering the light and volume cues accurately. A real pure cinema experience. I missed one cue since I was asked to help move a section of seats during the Michael pre-show in theater 2 but otherwise everything went smoothly. All gear used during the program was broken down and stored away during the flip. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Teaser one ...

Ready to go.  Built the SE playlists for Heavy Healing and Butthole Surfers. - Lillian  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Printed out the ROS for Kevin Geeks Out tonight (fyi the preshow was in the LMS with Dolls in the title). We went through the preshow today, which I put into a short playlist with a house lights down cue a couple minutes before the end as the last few minutes are just meant for transitioning to the laptop...bit of a weird choice via Kevin's editor but it's all good! You can switch over to the laptop as soon as you see that house lights down cue execute. I setup the laptop connection/yamaha and wireless mic mixer with two mic stands off to the side near t...
