NPP Projection Report 7/13 Close

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: 

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built and scheduled a show playlist for NoBudge Live #28 (shorts 8 and 9 are in the correct placement in sequence and all volume levels have been adjusted) and updated the cue sheets accordingly with time allotted for the introduction and Q&A following the show; also waiting for the "Reconsider This" content to finish uploading to the shared drive before building out the Wild Wild West pre-show (this might not be completed until some time tomorrow but the "Girl6" trailer was ingested to the TMS and will follow this film's introduction) -- Built and scheduled a show playlist for Where the Crawdads Sing

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up:

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Where the Crawdads Sing DCP was delivered and ingested and TrailMix 7/15 DCP was delivered and stored in 4/6; downloaded and ingested keys for The Terminator and Where the Crawdads Sing

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection:

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Where the Crawdads Sing asset information was already logged but I did update that the content had been received 

Maintenance/cleaning: There were quite a few extra poster cylinders behind 3/7 that I threw away (there are currently two empty extra cylinders to store one sheets for the archives and a third in use that is about a quarter of the way full); I swept in 4/6 to get rid of the dust/dirt buildup along the wall and around the projectors and between rounds in theater 7 sprayed the joints on the entrance door with some WD-40 to keep it from squeaking (placed some extra garbage bags at the bottom of the bin as well for future use)

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Updated cue sheets for the week with credit offset information for Where the Crawdads Sing 

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?: Yes

Projection cart by entrance?: Yes

Additional Notes: The light in the corner of theater 7 (left-hand side, closest to the screen) keeps having to be screwed back in to keep it from going totally dark; I'm not sure what is causing this but it's not the first time I've had to tighten the bulb on its threading -- it might be worth looking at the light housing to see that that's fitted correctly

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...
