NPP Projection Report 1/12 Close

To do this evening/ was completed: Downloaded keys for Babylon again as the KDM was still scheduled to expire by tomorrow afternoon; The Karate Kid DCP was left connected to theater 3 the other night so I brought the drive back up to 4/6

Presentation Issues: A few more guests complained about the low volume during the second round screening of M3GAN this afternoon (there were 190 guests seated for it and the room did sound quiet when I went in to check on it) so I raised the level to 6.3 and brought up the cue on the playlist to 6.0

IMB marriage went down approximately 15 minutes into the final round in theater 7; I called Lillian for help with troubleshooting the issue and, after powering the projector down, restarting it, then trying to manually marry the IMB (which failed), we left it as it was for DMS to look over tomorrow (guests had their money refunded for this inconvenience...fortunately The Menu is available on HBO Max...)

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Added The Karate Kid special event show playlist to the schedule and updated the cue sheets with credit offset times accordingly (for Matinee too as these were left vacant)

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: The host(s) of the event in theater 6 decided to switch the version of the film from the theatrical to the sing-along at the last minute; Chenelle kindly asked if we could switch to the blu-ray disc and this was used for the show following a quick tech and pre-show (the disc ran smoothly and the guests had a ball)

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received posters for Broker and Skinamarink 

Ordering/Receiving (content):

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Printed return shipping labels for the Menace II Society print and placed it on the cart for a pickup scheduled for tomorrow morning (update: the address was changed this evening and Jack forwarded me the email from Chris Chouinard; the print is going to TIFF but I am not sure how much the customs value of the print is worth -- I removed the labels I originally printed and placed the canisters on the cart behind 3/7 for the night)

To do this evening/ was completed: Scheduled 1/3 - 1/9 in LMS. A few manual starts in there. I scheduled those shows just a minute or two after their real start time to get the content transferred, just FYI. Started building the cue sheets as well. Got the first three days done. SE screenings went smoothly.

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 Admin (Lillian/Will) 7/7

To do this evening/ was completed: Leon Chase for Hank's Saloon came by to tech his film today. He's super happy with the outcome of his DCP and is really, really excited about the screening.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Buena Vista Social Club is just about sorted for this evening -the hosts did not respond to our request for a good quality video of the Tony Awards performance that we could download, so I found it on YouTube and let them know. I made a DCP, which will likely sound good between 3.5 - 4.5, but we'll have 15min to tech it before we open doors for the show!  Superman playlists built - I swapped out the atmos file that was first ingested and got the regular 7.1 in there! Hanks Saloon playlist built Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received posters for Lurker and Pavements and placed them behind 3/7 Ordering/Receiving (content): Downloaded and ingested the Superman pre-show Sorry, Baby i...
