NPP Projection Report 12/17 Sat. Close


To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Working on exporting a bunch of generic preshows to our 4TB desktop hard drive, which I believe we used to use when we would get preshows from a remote server instead of Google Drive. Just going genre-specific ones and a few SE preshows I know we won't need for a while. We can just check this drive in the future if there's an older preshow we need for something and keep new generic preshows on here for future use. We can also use this drive for ingesting weekly preshows if we want to, just keep it clear of first run preshows when we're done with them so it doesn't get too full.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Everything in Trees went great, no issues with the World Cup or the DJ set.

We're playing the World Cup matches with sound on in Trees this weekend. So we'll need to use the laptop (and the cable connection isn't currently working, either). I left the 2XLR to 1/8" cable in the bin in the closet in Trees. We're currently signed into our Verizon Fios account on my Chrome profile on the projection laptop. If for whatever reason it gets signed out, the login info is written down with the laptop. Click "TV Provider Sign In" at the top of the page, not "Account Sign In." If that former button disappears and is replaced with "Preview Pass," try quitting Chrome and reopening or switching Chrome profiles.

I also left a power strip and extension cord in the closet in Trees for setting up DJs.

Raised the volumes for the features in both brunch playlists.

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

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.
