NPP Projection Report Sat. 1/14 Open


To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: None, T7 has been behaving.

Preshow Clips/Playlist: I noticed the forecasts and how to order and tip PSAs were in lights down for Karate Kid. The lights down cue was about 26 minutes into the playlist with roughly 9 minutes of lights down trailers, including forecasts etc. This wasn't technically wrong as this is how it was laid out on the trailer list, but made the timing kind of awkward. I moved the forecasts and PSAs to the lights up preshow so the lights went down 30 minutes in and there were 5 minutes of trailers before it started. I sent an email to Kat as well to ask about the breakdown on the trailer list.

I also raised the volume for Karate Kid and added a 5.5 cue to the playlist for tomorrow.

Trailer Updates: Downloaded Dreamcatcher and Assault on Precinct 13 trailers to the DCPII hard drive. Ingest and add to playlists/packs when the last NoBudge short finishes converting.

Special Events/ AV set up: Karate Kid and Matinee screenings went well. DJ set too, brought cables and DJ key back to the bin in the closet.

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Since we have so much space on the TMS now, I ingested Audition and Assault on Precinct 13 to hold them there until closer to the screening dates.

Finished converting NoBudge shorts to DCP. They are on the DCPII hard drive and can be ingested to T2. Heads up that the name of the Extremophiles DCP says it's Interop. This was just a mistake in naming the DCP, it is indeed a SMPTE DCP.

Ingested Legally Blonde to T3.

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection:

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: I broke the manual up into headings and sub-headings for easier navigation. You can jump to a specific section on the outline on the side of the document. Also added a Christie maintenance section.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift):

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

Additional Notes:

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.
