To do this evening/ was completed: Dungeons & Dragons tech'd, ready to go. Volume for Spring Welcome and Guardians 3 trailer updated. Ran loops for Eternal Sunshine--all set.

Downloaded and ingested the new CarsGoneWild preshow content.

Double checked the trailer for Air this morning per MGM's request. It looks great! We notified them.

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: DnD done. 

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Changed the lamp in the digital projector in T1. Up and running beautifully. Jack observed and was very helpful. 

Someone from DMS might be here tomorrow to help out with our HDMI issue in T1 tomorrow. 

This morning I went to check brightness on P1, took out the lenses, and it was incredibly dark. When focusing the lamp, the lenses need to be off so you can check the 'orb' or 'bullseye.' Wound up taking ages, but I adjusted the entire apparatus with the thumb screws/ knob and nylon bit to get rid of heavy shadows and more evenly distribute the light. I called Roger, too, but he couldn't come in and suggested I just do what I was already doing, but he does think there's a misalignment. 

The plate had also been moved. This shouldn't actually have to get adjusted, so it's been moved back somewhat to its current position. I think the reflector is really what's making this challenging and it's just a simple misalignment. We didn't have much time today, but we held off with seating for first round for a couple minutes in order to make sure we could secure things as best as possible. I will investigate tomorrow. 



Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

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.

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

Projection Close 12/28 Lillian

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey all. Thanks for the Christmas coverage and for quickly hopping on board to accompany Alec while he's out for a little while - I really appreciate it. We've just about got our schedule sorted, so please remember to take a look to see the changes made.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Double checked that T6 and T6 specific playlists are all set.  Tomorrow! Please get your eyes on When Harry Met Sally just to check sound/image and credits info. Screens this Saturday/Sunday but the keys open up tomorrow. I adjusted the playlist based on the ingest letter (and looked it up online, but the offset is a little different, so you'll want to make sure!) Thanks! Adjust cue sheets if necessary.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received Drive Away Dolls posters.  Ordering/Receiving (content): We're all good on KDMs at the moment.  Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Ins
