To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Converted the Last Seduction slide to DCP, built and scheduled the playlist.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up:

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Rugrats Movie, In a Lonely Place, and My Best Friend’s Exorcism came on drives. Ingested In a Lonely Place to Theater 3 and Rugrats and Exorcism to Theater 4.

Downloaded the Ham on Rye DCP to the hard drive, can get ingested to Theater 3.

Outgoing/Shipping (content): TMS and IMS servers we getting pretty full with all the first runs this week and the three opening on Thursday. So I cleared everything that’s closing on Friday from the screens they won’t be showing on over the next few days.

Bebe’s Kids print got picked up.

Lillian and I walked the outgoing drives to the UPS store, packed up more for return after getting the film schedule, all the titles that are closing on Friday.

Print/video Inspection: Checked through the Body Double playlist, it’s all set.

Cristina looked at the Sugar Hill DCP for the Shouting at the Screen next month. It looked and sounded good. Wrote down info from the tech in the asset doc.

Also projected a bit of The Last Seduction, it looks/sounds good.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Yes, updated Sugar Hill and Ham on Rye entries.

Maintenance/cleaning:

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Filled in cues for The Last Seduction.

Marquee updated?: Put up Thirst.

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?: Yes

Additional Notes: Lillian had her first training shift today. We went over building and scheduling playlists, making cue sheets, changing the marquee, certain AV capabilities in the theaters (I showed her the setup for Spoons, which includes a lot of basic special event AV stuff like wired mics and HDMI from the stage, and in the process covered the wireless mics and spots) and in Trees, she was there when I QC’d the print on Theater 1 and the DCP in Theater 2. I also briefly showed her the 35mm projectors in Theater 4, showed her the keys for changing posters, opened up one of the Christies to describe changing lamps, and various other things around the booths (breakers, supplies, etc.). Tomorrow we’ll work on the cue sheets and schedule for the week, run some film, and go over more AV setups.

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.

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

Projection Close 12/28 Lillian

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey all. Thanks for the Christmas coverage and for quickly hopping on board to accompany Alec while he's out for a little while - I really appreciate it. We've just about got our schedule sorted, so please remember to take a look to see the changes made.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Double checked that T6 and T6 specific playlists are all set.  Tomorrow! Please get your eyes on When Harry Met Sally just to check sound/image and credits info. Screens this Saturday/Sunday but the keys open up tomorrow. I adjusted the playlist based on the ingest letter (and looked it up online, but the offset is a little different, so you'll want to make sure!) Thanks! Adjust cue sheets if necessary.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received Drive Away Dolls posters.  Ordering/Receiving (content): We're all good on KDMs at the moment.  Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Ins
