NPP Projection Report 1/19 Close

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: The second round pre-show in theater 7 did not load correctly and played in the scope lens macro for its entirety. Fortunately I noticed halfway through its run and was able to open the masking to better fit the image but the framing was zoomed in for everything excluding the trailer pack. Thankfully the feature played without incident despite the "missing KDM" warning on the TMS and further crisis was averted (note: I was unable to view the theater 7 projector panel in the VNC app and could not bring up any trigger cues through the quick controls tab in the Overview panel of the TMS; my assumption is that this is due to the communication/or lack thereof between the TMS and new IMS system)

Cristina forwarded me a Google Slides version of the slideshow for SaTS and this was run manually during the opening presentation prior to the feature as the bluetooth remote was not advancing the slides from the stage

The pre-show for SaTS ended 10 minutes early and we were forced to bring up the first slide with the event logo in order to keep from having a blank screen for the rest of the time; the intro was scheduled to start at 9:20PM on the cue sheet but switched over to the HDMI block at 9:10PM -- the hosts took everything in stride and had a successful introduction

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Jack assisted readying the SaTS DJ setup at Trees (the DJ did not bring their own mixer but did supply needles)

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.
