To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Updated the Chocolate Babies show playlist with the restored feature content and added timing for credits Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Double checked Stolen Kingdom in theater 3 prior to the first round...thought about adjusting the feature volume but the mix is too low at 4.0 and loud enough at 4.5 Ran loops in 1 for Strangers on a Train this morning. Ended up running the print with the curtains at 1.33 since the 1.37 cue kept reverting the masking back to 1.85.

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Spoons went well. I broke down all the equipment and put it away after. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Multiple attempts to download the 4K Chocolate Babies DCP from Dropbox via the browser failed so I just started a free trial so I could sync the video file with the Dropbox folder on the desktop. This is really the only reliable way to download large files from Dropbox, it seems. Everything else looks like it downloaded completely the first time, so once the video file is done syncing, copy it into the Share folder and we should be able to ingest this.
