Presentation Issues: No presentation issues.

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the Blue Velvet playlist with preshow and trailers, still waiting on the feature which is arriving tomorrow.

Ordering/Receiving (content):

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Teched Slayer: The Repentless Killogy in Theater 2. The feature has three parts: a ten-minute interview portion, a 40-minute short film, and an hour and a half of concert footage. There are different volume cues for each section. The first two are scope footage in a flat container (letterboxed) but the concert is flat 1.85:1 so we will show it with the normal flat lens file and masking. Updated the event memo with the current timing. The playlist is all good to go unless an intro or Q&A is added.

-Checked the Late Night Lynch preshow for Blue Velvet

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Added all upcoming bookings currently on the Deluxe portal. Most importantly added tracking for The Trouble with Harry which is playing brunch next weekend (11/9), it should be here Monday 11/4.

Maintenance/cleaning: Made 1.19 screen files in all houses which had yet to have one (3, 4, 6, and 7). Every house is all set with the Lighthouse playlist now.

-Checked the 1.66 lens and aperture plate on 35mm projector 1 in theater 1 (Marriage Story is 1.66). Looking good but the port window will probably have to be taped. Set the preset on the masking motor as well.

-Ran some scope trailers on the 35mm's in Theater 6. I added notes to the "35mm Projector Vetting" spreadsheet.

-Updated the white board.

-Some LED lights, a shelf, and spotlights came. They are on the bottom of the shelf by the Theater 6 rack.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Checked over cues and scheduler for today, no problems. Printed three copies.

Marquee updated?: Up to date

Posters updated?: Put a "now showing" snipe above the Halloween poster in the vestibule for tonight. This should be changed to Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood with a "coming soon" snipe at the end of the night.

Every house checked for cues (lighting/masking/lens) & playback on all playlists checked?: Yes and yes

Cleaning lights on for the night?: N/a

Projectors off for the night?: N/a

Projection cart by TH5?: Back in 3/7

Nest:

Additional Notes: Keys for Blue Velvet should be coming in tonight and they will open at midnight on Monday 11/4.

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

NPP Projection 11/17 Close

To do this evening/ was completed:v Mandy ingested to T1. Reached out to Vision for new posters. 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.
