Projection Admin 10/14 ~ NewFest is almost here!!



To do this evening/ was completed: Lots of building today. HOLY moly does it feel great to have these done. Once everything was built, I spent most of today double checking volume and run of show. I will be in Connecticut until Sunday evening, so good luck with the opening of NewFest! 

Playlists for NewFest that are now complete: 

The Birdcage - Feature (See important note in Preshow Clips/Playlist)
Mad As Hell - shorts
Sexual Healing - shorts
A Very Trans Time - shorts
Episodic Showcase - shorts
Before I Change My Mind - Feature (I made sure that the file we're showing is CCAP)
Unidentified Objects - Feature
The New Class - shorts -- Desmond has requested that we make sure the drop time on the cue sheet for this programme is right after the first Q&A. 

Additional playlists created: Black Adam 

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: The KDM for Birdcage on 10/17! Please QC once it's live. It should be flat, 1.85, but we'll need to check volume. 

I adjusted the Brooklyn Brunch playlist as per Kim's requests to make Hold Onto Me the last short in the programme.

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...
