NPP Projection Close 9/26



To do this evening/ was completed: New Jack City went well tonight, apart from the DJ from the event afterwards accidentally absconding with our HDMI dongle. 

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: At long, long last I finally had a terrific show in Theater 1. Even with deadly combo of the grease changeover cue at the end of reel 3 and the blind spot, New Jack City went perfectly. Framing and changeovers were on point throughout. It feels good. 

The music video showcase down in Trees also went smoothly. I set up as much as I could in advance, but then also talked to Eliel to help set up because the DJ was slated to arrive while I was running the print. I checked on it once the movie was over and it looked like everything was going good. 

When I checked back in to break everything down, everything had been put in its place except for the HDMI Macbook Dongle, which was missing. I told Eliel and he concluded that the DJ must have taken it by mistake. He sent an email to John about it because they need it for karaoke tomorrow.

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.
