Projection Admin 10/8

To do this evening/ was completed: I am still recovering from a bad sinus infection and will likely be taking tomorrow off, but Alec is happy to cover the evening shift. Waiting to hear back from Jack if, on th off chance, he'd be fine with a mid shift.  NewFest tech went well, but they did not send the feature for T3 (Montreal) until an hour before tech, which got in as we were teching) but it is now almost done ingesting. I ingested all slides, the la bola trailer (which, FYI, I know Jack had an issue ingesting this the other day so friendly reminder that sometimes you need to make sure you take the DCP out of the second folder if it comes in two, then it'll ingest just fine!) and the rest of trailers. We tech'd all of New Voices slides and shorts, which have been logged. We'll get our eyes on the Gilead trailer as soon as possible, including the feature of Montreal. Spots info is all set, too. We've managed to get a lot done these past few rounds.  Also, I manage...

To do this evening/ was completed: Ingested Brooklyn Dream feature and slide. Put both on screen at end of night, slide and feature look/sound good. Did not note technical details though so another look tomorrow. Attack the Block went smoothly, print back on shippings reels, mics back in booth. Downloaded La Bola Negra trailer to Share drive but was not able to get it to populate in LMS search. Removed it from Share drive to Documents page in Finder then tried to re-transfer to Share but was unable to. Other Mommy feature added to staff screening playlist. Inspected first two reels of Vampire's Kiss. Good condition so far.

NPP Projection Report 10/7 Admin

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: I built a Social Reckoning playlist for tomorrow and scheduled it. didn't build the 10/9 version since we'll be getting the new QR clip tomorrow. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: I set 2.20 masking in all theaters except 3 for Other Mommy . Since I had already saved over the old 2.20 preset for 1.50 ( Primetime ), I used the 2.00 preset for this. The reason I did not change it in 3 is because one of the shorts in the private event tomorrow night is 2.00. So 2.20 masking will need to be set in T3 on Friday for Other Mommy .  Ran loops for Attack the Block tonight. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): A Brooklyn Dream is converting to DCP, going directly into the Share folder. Please ingest to the LMS and Theater 1 when it finishes tonight. There is also a still which should be on screen during the band's performance. It's in the downloads f...

Also built most upcoming SE playlists, trailer list updated with initials. Devil and the Deep slide ingested. Scheduled coming week in LMS, excluding Social Reckoning and Other Mommy (waiting on preshow content for both). Cue sheets also built for coming week excluding those two films. 4/6, 1 and 3/7 booths swept/vacuumed. Edie Arnold poster arrived, in 3/7, tube labeled.
