NPP Projection Report 7/18 Admin

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: Theater 4's projector lost its IMB connection around 9AM; a hard reboot fixed this issue and the content loaded onto the TMS as previously scheduled

Humidity in theater 1 created some fogging on the port glass window which had to be remove until the theater cooled down; this was placed back in between rounds 

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: NoBudge 28 event in theater 2 this evening went smoothly

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Took a look at the first reel of Supernova with Cristina in theater 4; the picture looks great and the sound levels have been noted, however, running the reel on projector 2 (the one closest to the sound rack), I noticed the scope aperture plate is cutting off a fairly negligible portion of the bottom right hand corner of the screen and could use some filing down -- after this tech concluded I placed back the 1.85:1 lens and plate for the Wild Wild West screening 

Made some minor adjustments to the NoBudge 28 show playlist and checked it for picture and sound quality; everything is in working order and the show should go smoothly

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Threw away all old and/or used inspection gloves in theaters 1 and 4/6

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift):

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?: Jack ordered posters for Nope through Universal

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

Additional Notes: Print inspection glove order was delivered (I brought two boxes to theater 1 and left the other two in 4/6); the lights beneath the tables in theater 5 were not lit up during the final two rounds of shows and we were unable to get them working again before I left

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...
