Projection Admin: 9/24



To do this evening/ was completed:All shows ran smoothly. Checked in on each theatre periodically. Reached out to Deluxe for a new KDM for The Rugrats movie, ingested the keys shortly after. (It's always good to just email Deluxe at DDCHelp@bydeluxe.com with 'urgent' in all caps in the title when we're down to the line looking or keys. They usually respond in less than twenty minutes!) Kat's trailers and preshow content still needed to fully expand. Went over a few masking details with Alec earlier in the day before the intros in T3 and T4. Checked in on Blonde quite a few times as I've noticed the ratio changes from 1.78 to 1.37. My guess is that this changes throughout the film during what look like flashback scenes, although they are long periods of time when it's 1.37 and the masking is set at 1.78. This might be too tricky (and could be distracting) to have multiple masking cues in. Alec and I took the BluRay player out of the rack in T1 for the staff screening on Monday. We checked to make sure it'd work in the bar area. I'll set it back up on Monday.

Projection Admin 7/19

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.
