Projection Report 8/21 Full Day



Presentation Issues: The circuit breaker tripped during the first showing of Once Upon A Time in Hollywood on 35mm and again (twice actually) towards the end of the second screening. In both cases, I had the show back up and running within a few minutes. I also had the Christie lamp turned off, as well as all of the lights in the booth. After the show went down for the second time during the last screening, I turned the Christie off entirely. I can't think of much else I can do to prevent this from happening again. I think we need to have an electrician take a look and see if they can get to the bottom of this.

Also: for some unknown reason, there was no picture on screen during the first round preshow in Th 1. I just ejected and restarted the playlist and there were no other issues with that screening of Angry Birds 2.

Preshow Clips/Playlist: I updated all of our A1 playlists for next week. I will schedule them tomorrow during my admin time.

Trailer Updates: I updated the adult and all ages trailer packs for next week according to the current trailer list. I'm not sure if it's final though, so there may be some updates tomorrow.

Special Events/ AV set up: No events

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Our poster for Angel Has Fallen arrived. I will hang it up out front tomorrow morning. We also received posters for I Still Believe and The Goldfinch.

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey all! Well, we're just about there! Barbenheimer starts tomorrow. Alec and I ran the print this morning as a dress rehearsal to check image/sound and to give our lovely staff a first look. The print looks really beautiful and I'm very excited for this run. We'll get our eyes on the DCP tomorrow to compare sound, though we're almost certain the loud, static noises that occur during scenes of explosions or closeups of nuclear particles are intentional.  I want to share with everyone a document I've whipped up called Housekeeping Notes for the Projectionist: Plattering Oppenheimer. This document details everything from notes on threading procedures--to cleaning--to examples of common situations and how to respond/communicate with colleagues and, of course, staying on top of other duties. Whilst Alec and I will be there for the first couple of screenings and to assist with each projectionists' first time running the platter--pl

Was placed on hold, which was more an unending cycle of pressing 1 for hold and then being told to press 0 for voicemail or 1 for hold. Point being I left a voicemail requesting new posters. Gave them our account number, location and my cell. Outgoing marquee letters taken down. 11/10 playlists and forecasts deleted, Chicken Run V2 and Christmas Action trailers downloaded and ingested, 11/24 A1 playlists and packs built. Inspected Raising Cain print. It's in good condition, minimal scratching, no splices. Inspection sheet filled out. Transferred Marvels content to T6, as it was missing from the server due to the 1:20 tomorrow being a manual start.
