To do this evening/ was completed: Added playlists to the TMS schedule for the upcoming week (7/30-8/5).

Spaces were left for the private event on Thursday and for The Suicide Squad  (we are still waiting on the feature content for this film).

To do this evening/ was completed: Ingested  Stillwater and Jungle Cruise . Made a playlist for the latter with a Teen trailer pack. Presentation Issues: Flies on the screens of theaters 1&7. Also the lights (the fixtures on the walls of the theater) in 7 continue to go up to normal brightness despite the house lights down cue being triggered in the playlists (this occurred twice tonight during the first and last shows).

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the Roadrunner playlist. Scheduled all Roadrunner shows and shows for Thursday 7/29, except the new titles.

To do this evening/ was completed: Input preshow, ticketed showtime, and lights down cues for Thursday 7/29. Presentation Issues: The center lights are fixed in Theater 2.

To do this evening/ was completed: Keep an eye on the lights in Th7 and make sure they go all the way down at the start of trailers. Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: I made a few tweaks to the Space Jam 2 playlist, I swapped the 5.1 DCP for the 7.1 and left out the House Lts MID cue until we can tech the playlist. There is only one timecode given for both credits and crawl so I'm suspecting there's some kind of mid-credits scene we can have the lights at Mid for. Trailer Updates: Since there was a complaint about the Old trailer ahead of In the Heights I made a "Teen" trailer pack for PG-13 movies with audiences that might skew younger. It has Jungle Cruise , Respect , and Coda and is included in the playlists for In the Heights, Summer of Soul , and Black Widow. Zola and F9 still have the adult pack. Also I removed Minions 2 from next week's all ages pack since that title doesn't come out for a whole year. We'll just run with a shorter

To do this evening/ was completed: Moved  Black Widow  to the front of the marquee and took down Werewolves Within .   Presentation Issues: Seems that the Stillwater trailer not playing in Theater 7 was due to the content not getting loaded from the TMS. Shouldn't happen again as the trailer has been loaded now. The lights in T7 are sporadic, sometimes the sconses (Channel 2) will stay on after the House Lts Down cue has fired. For now, be in the booth when lights go down in TH7 and watch the wall mounted dimmer panel. If the green light next to Channel 2 remains lit after the house lights are supposed to go down, manually fire the House Lts Down cue and that should take of it. Preshow Clips/Playlist: No new playlists needed this week. Friday 7/9 - Thurs 7/5 is scheduled. Trailer Updates: No trailer updates needed this week Special Events/ AV set up: Set up a mic in TH3 just in case the host wants one for their announcement before the feature, showed William how to use it.

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Flat content in T2 (trailers and Zola , more specifically), is still slightly hanging over the left side masking. Not distractingly noticeable.
