Ordering/Receiving (content):

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Printed the return shipping label for Foxfire and scheduled a pickup for Monday. It’s on the cart in 3/7. Shared the tracking number with John and Cristina.

Also printed and attached return labels for House Party and Fist of Legend prints, and attached the included return labels for Showgirls so these can be returned the day following their screenings. As far as other prints we have in which have yet to screen, that leaves Cool As Ice to arrange the return for but Universal usually sends someone to pick their prints up. Waiting to hear back from John about returning Lives of Others, Crouching Tiger, Dogtown & Z-Boys, and Freeway.

Print/video Inspection: Began inspecting the Fist of Legend print, it’s an English dub, which I notified Cristina about. Not sure if she was expecting a subtitled version, The first and fifth reels are a bit too long for the 2000ft cast aluminum reels so I’ll be putting them on sheet metal ones which can hold the extra film safely, and placed an oversized sheet metal reel next to the print on the shelf to use as the take up reel for both. The first reel is very scratched, both on the base and emulsion side, had several splices, and lots of existing sprocket repairs and torn sprocket holes which I had to tape up. There were also no cues on it so I added grease pencil ones.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Added tracking for the Grease Sing-Along DCP, it’s arriving Tuesday the 8th.

Updated entries for Eve’s Bayou, House Party, Cool As Ice, and Showgirls with inspection info.

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.
