NPP Projection Report 11/1 Admin/Open


To do this evening/ was completed: Please continue downloading VHS Vault content from Google Drive.

Presentation Issues: The A/C interlock warning in Theater 1 has become a daily occurrence, luckily turning the projector off and turning it back on again resolves the issue.

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Started downloading the VHS Vault content to our hard drive.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: I set up the mixer in Theater 1 for Spoons on Thursday. I also left two mics down there (I brought one back up to 4/6 for trivia tomorrow). I've decided to use the PA speakers we have on the wall on the theater for Spoons, the same ones we used for Live Sound Cinema. This will shorten the setup time significantly as we no longer have to pull out the speakers from under the curtain and set them up on their stands. The wall speakers are connected to the mixer and I set the mic levels. FYI, I have one mic mixed all the way to the left speaker, one mixed all the way to the right, and one mixed to both. This should help with feedback.

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Ingested keys for The Muppet Movie, they activate tomorrow morning so it can be teched then.

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Projected two reels of Dogtown & Z-Boys in Theater 1 to see what to do about the masking since it's a 1.37 frame pillarboxed for a 1.85 plate/lens. I decided to use the 1.37 film masking stop and put some tape on the port glass to take care of the bleed. I was worried I wouldn't be able to see the cues since they are mostly over the pillarboxing rather than the image, but they were visible on screen from both projectors.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Added the credit offset for Spencer.

Maintenance/cleaning: I adjusted the tension roller for the take-up belt on projector #2 in Theater 1 as it was a little bit loose.

Checked the 1.66 lens file and masking in Theater 2 since Spencer is 1.66:1 and I wanted to make sure there was no bleed. It's looking good, it's shifted over slightly to the left but it's not bleeding on the curtain. I decided to leave it as is rather than try and nudge the projector again and risk screwing up the 1.85 and scope settings.

Checked on the shipment of lamps for the Christie CP2215s. The shipment got delayed, but Gregg suggested possibly getting the next size up which may be available sooner.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Checked over for tomorrow.

Marquee updated?: Took down The Ring from the 14th street side and put up Ammonite with dates.

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projectors off for the night?:

Projection cart by TH5?: Back in 3/7, be aware the print of The Ring is on there for pickup. Leave it by the T7 server station at the end of the night as usual, though.

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.

NPP Projection Report 4/6 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Theater 3 issue happened again, Carly radioed me that the second round preshow didn't start. I was able to restart the projector and put the preshow on about 12 minutes before lights down. Trailers/feature played fine after that. I wrote again to DMS and Jerry said he'll have a list of parts to replace on Monday. For the sake of clarity, here is everything I've gathered about this issue: -When it happens, you won't be able to control playback via the TMS, manually fire automation cues, or access the IMS web GUI at all -Schedules for Theater 3 will display as "KDM missing" and the storage health icon on the Overview page will say "Storage degraded," even though the storage is healthy and KDMs have been uploaded and are active. -This issue prevents the server from validating KDMs (even though they are there and valid), so encrypted content will not play with the server in this state. If the projector goes into this st

Projection Close 12/28 Lillian

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey all. Thanks for the Christmas coverage and for quickly hopping on board to accompany Alec while he's out for a little while - I really appreciate it. We've just about got our schedule sorted, so please remember to take a look to see the changes made.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Double checked that T6 and T6 specific playlists are all set.  Tomorrow! Please get your eyes on When Harry Met Sally just to check sound/image and credits info. Screens this Saturday/Sunday but the keys open up tomorrow. I adjusted the playlist based on the ingest letter (and looked it up online, but the offset is a little different, so you'll want to make sure!) Thanks! Adjust cue sheets if necessary.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received Drive Away Dolls posters.  Ordering/Receiving (content): We're all good on KDMs at the moment.  Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Ins
