NPP Projection Report 2/23 Close



To do this evening/ was completed: Removed Sweetback and The Dark Crystal from T1 and T2 servers. Turntable setup in Trees Lounge was left to Jesse at the end of the night. I checked in a few times towards midnight and eventually asked Jesse around 12:05 if he could break things down. He said it was no problem for him to break down the turntable and return it to 3/7. I told him the XLR cables are ours as well and to leave them with the equipment in 3/7.

Presentation Issues: Few slight notes about the 35mm screening in T1: During the lead up to reel 6, I forgot to close the lens turret. As I hit the changeover, the screen went black. I recognized my mistake immediately and got picture back on screen. Black screen for about 2-3 seconds.

During the credits of the film, I could see text beneath the bottom of the screen--wasn't prominent in any sense but it was there. This was coming from Projector 1.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Trees Lounge 35mm screening went smoothly.  Print is wound back on to its shipping reels and is resting in T1 for the night. A few presentational notes above.

NPP Projection Open 12/28

To do this evening/ was completed: Scheduled 1/3 - 1/9 in LMS. A few manual starts in there. I scheduled those shows just a minute or two after their real start time to get the content transferred, just FYI. Started building the cue sheets as well. Got the first three days done. SE screenings went smoothly.

Projection Admin (and Close) 10/19

To do this evening/ was completed: Real quick - It was a great day! For tonight, I've let MOD know that, since I'm more comfortable staying until most of the last round starts (due to some funky server issues we've been having), I'm going to go see a movie in T2 and can silently text with them if they need anything or should anything go wrong (knocking on wood).  Extremely thrilled to say that all three NewFest shows went very well this morning/afternoon. It was definitely a bit of a magic trick with some overlapping intros/Q&As but having my personal ROS helped so much. Thank you to Desmond, NewFest rockstar.  Desmond and I double checked all shows before doors. Gaffed the wired mics and tested everything. Since one guest for the q&a in T2 wasn't comfortable with the chairs, we swapped our directors chairs for the ones in the bar, which still worked super well with the slides and spots.  Had to ride the mic in trees a bit since everyone's got a differen...

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...
