NPP Projection Report 9/6


To do this evening/ was completed: Three manual starts as marked on the cue sheets.

Presentation Issues: Discovered during the first round that the CaptiView connection in Theater 2 has stopped working. I will write DMS about it, I just want to investigate a bit further, test the devices with a few different CPLs and check the assisted listening connection, to get a better sense of where the issue lies before I do.

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Added the NPP September Forecast trailer to all first run preshows.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Made a DCP slide with the poster for What She Said and tested it in theater 1, it's good to go.

I'm still awaiting some content for this event. Waiting on a BTS reel (or possibly just a slideshow) which will screen in Hi-Res during the afterparty and a playlist of some kind for the preshow. These will probably be sent to my e-mail, if something comes through when I'm not here I'll let everyone know so files can be saved/checked.

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Still no Cry Macho posters and both my requests have disappeared from the IMoxie website, so I'm guessing WB isn't approving the request until we have officially booked the title.

Ordering/Receiving (content): Tracking is now available for Fellowship of the Ring, it should be arriving on Wednesday.

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Since we had some issues with ingesting the What She Said DCP, I decided to watch it all the way through to make sure there are no problems with playback. It's all set and details are recorded in the asset tracking doc.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Yes

Maintenance/cleaning:

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projectors off for the night?:

Projection cart by TH5?:

Nest:

Additional Notes: Emily noted there was some vulgar language used in one of the preshow clips for Shang-Chi. I removed this and replaced it with GenericAction for the duration of the preshows on all playlists. Should run without any issues tomorrow.

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.
