NPP Projection Close 5/10

To do this evening/ was completed: Built playlists for The Wiz, Blue Velvet, Monos (still waiting on feature) and NoBudge. T1 looks like it doesn't have 1.90 lens cue at the moment--two of the shorts are listed as 1.90 lens on event memo. Also no 4.8 volume cue on Screenwriter so I made those shorts 5.0 and will be working the event so will know to drop it by .2 when they come on. Still waiting on custom preshow for Film Feast. New 35mm letters up and took down brunch side letters at the end of the night, right as a large crowd started to materialize, so I'll put up new brunch letters tomorrow.

Projection Close 5/9

To do this evening/ was completed: Somewhat mysterious activity in T1 as, during final round, it seems as though the cue for the volume change (for the feature) did not execute ( I was walkied to go to T2 instead of 1, which was then corrected by James, but this delayed the fix), then later on the lights for the credits didn't execute. No projector issue, no server or lighting panel issue indicated anywhere...I went through the same playlist once last round was over and had no issues at all. Regardless, please keep an eye on T1 tomorrow.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Brought the volume up for Michael. Playlists adjusted.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Inspected all of Hanging with the Homeboys.

NPP Projection Report 5/9 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: The private event went well. Host decided to forego the mic. Everything played without issue. The Virgin Suicides  went very well. Didn't have any framing issues, even after switching P1 from scope to flat, so maybe that was a misthread during the tech yesterday. Print is rewound for tomorrow. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Maintenance/cleaning: The Theater 3 server connection dropped this morning. Thankfully I noticed before the first round started and the lamp wasn't lit yet so it was just a quick power cycle to bring it back. Pulled logs from the projector and shared with DMS. Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Marquee updated?: The wrong copy was put up for the rental this morning. It was supposed to say "Lil...
