Projection Close 7/14



To do this evening/ was completed: Quick coverage for Jack tonight. 

Presentation Issues: No presentation issues! Films ran smoothly. 

Preshow Clips/Playlist: We received some of the new round of content from Kat. I started downloading as much as possible to the DCPII drive. j2c files always take the longest, of course, so it's been a bit of a slow evening. Keep an eye on what pops up on the drive. 

What I've downloaded: 
PS_FR_Oppenheimer_25min 
PS_FR_Oppenheimer_15min
PS_FR_Oppenheimer_5min 
PS_FR_Barbie_25min 

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Go the Time Cop trailer out for Cristina, but it's Flat. (To play before Runaway). Waiting on whether or not we'll show it. 

At the end of the night, I was able to take a look at The Living End, which screens August 16th. The file is absolutely fine! We won't need that drive shipped out. I let them know in the email chain. I will say that it's 1.37 instead of 1.78 as the CPL suggests, but that happens. It is also SUPER loud at 4.0 and far too quiet at 3.5, so 3.7/3.8 is a happy level.

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Inspected The Truman Show and uploaded a ton of photos to the drive. Tagged Conrad. Print is in good condition and should be a super fun show! Bit of accordion damage towards the end of one reel near the m/c...functionally, that's the worst of it. Otherwise it's just suffered some unfortunate scuffs from residue/base scratches. This was definitely plattered a lot. Color is really nice, but it's 1998 Kodak, so of course it's lovely. 

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: 

Maintenance/cleaning: Took out the trash in T1. 

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes! Double checked cue sheets for the weekend and we're good to go. OCAP screenings are correct. Lots of shows...

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?: Big, mysterious box with some wood crate thingamajig was on the projection cart. Jeremy thought it was for us but it was for the bar, I believe. I moved the rest of the packaging off the cart.

NPP Projection Open 12/28

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 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...
