NPP Projection Report 3/26 Close


To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: Since the CP750 processor in Theater 1 has had the glitch where it sends sound through the wrong channels a few times now, we should run the Dolby Channel ID test (it's a CPL available on every server) in this house everyday before opening. When you play it a voice reads out each speaker through the separate channels, if the names of each speaker are not coming from the correct place (e.g. Left, Center, or Right are coming from the surround speakers) that means it's glitching and you should reboot the processor and run the test again to make sure it's working. I will write to DMS about this as well so it can be addressed.

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: I bookmarked the live stream on ABC's website on the projection laptop for the Red Carpet in Trees Lounge tomorrow. It's logged in through my Optimum account so there should be no access issues.

Everything is still set-up in Theater 1 for the Oscars party. Just switch to the Flat HDMI input on the projector, pull out the mics and light control board on the table under the curtain. They'll also need a second table, which is outside the MOD office as you walk toward booth 5.

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.
