Projection Report 11/8 Admin



Presentation Issues: There were no presentation issues in the first round.

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: 
I ran the whole slide show for the Bar Mitzvah and had libreoffice freeze on me. I adjusted the power save settings on the computer so that it never shuts off. It was set to go to sleep at 10 minutes and that was right when the slide show froze. I ran the slide show again for 20 minutes and everything was fine. Fingers crossed. I am leaving detailed technical directions for Erin, who will be working, along with directions on how to switch to Blu-ray as back-up.

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): There is a big dry-mounted (on foam) Marriage Story poster n 3/7.

Print/video Inspection:
I teched The Irishman and moved some light cues around (they were coming up before the credits started and there was no lights down for the trailers). I also raised the volume to 6.5 (it may even stand to come up to 7.0, as I teched it in TH5 ahead of the staff screening and it was still a hair on the low side. I will pop in and listen to it today in TH2.
I teched The Trouble with Harry, it looks great and the volume is good. There aren't any credits. I just have the lights coming to mid right at the end of the movie and then a 45 second black slug thrown in before DCP_end where I bring lights UP and give an extra minute before blasting the cleaning lights.
I also watched the Little Women and Knives Out trailers, since I don't remember anyone saying they did. They look great, all are good at 4.5 volume.
I am going to do a full run-through of the Bat Mitzvah GG and slideshow presentation with the blu-ray and get timing.

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.
