NPP Projection Report 8/8 Close


To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: Seems the dowser on the Theater 1 Christie is not closing with the light lock board down. Not much of an issue for digital shows, but for 35mm there will be a brief flash on screen when the lamp shuts off at the end of the digital playlist. This can be avoided by placing a piece of cardboard or something else that will block the light from the lens on the ledge of the port window after the end of the last digital clip. DMS will be bringing a replacement when they come to replace the ballast in the Theater 2 Christie (they’ve ordered one which is on its way to us, should be here Thursday).

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up:

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Received the Fire Walk With Me print, brought it up to booth 1.

Bodies Bodies Bodies drive arrived, ingested to TMS and all IMS servers.

Downloaded and ingested the updated DCP of the Off the Charts extras to Theater 3.

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Malcolm X and Top Gun prints were picked up.

Print/video Inspection: Inspected the Crooklyn print. It’s in great shape.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Added tracking for A League of Their Own, should be delivered tomorrow.

Maintenance/cleaning: Seems the CP750 in Theater 1 is acting up again, I’ve mentioned it to DMS. Last time we brought this issue up they said if it wasn’t the power supply (which at that point it seemed to be, as replacing it resolved the issue) that the processor is likely failing, so we might need a new one.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift):

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

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.
