NPP Projection Close 1/26



To do this evening/ was completed: Removed remaining 1/19 content. 

Downloaded and ingested all of the preshow content listed in Kat's trailer list email, as well as preshow content for Oscar nominated features returning next week. A1 2/2 playlists built, with the exception of Barbie, Oppenheimer and Boy and the Heron, as those have yet to be uploaded to Eclair.

**I removed the PSA_NPP_BOGO piece from a few of the R-rated feature playlists, as they exceeded 41:00 minutes with that piece included. Can reach out to Kat later, but curious what the preference would be here: playlist exceeding 40 minutes of preshow or nixing something to keep things tight.

Restarted the 4/6 desktop per Alec's instruction so DMS can remote in later.

Took a look at Raging Bull after T1 let out. Picture and sound (6.0) are good to go.

Inspected the first three reels of Space Jam. Decent condition overall, some prominent base-scratching.

Double-checked the cue sheets for tomorrow. They're all set but I did notice one very minor peculiarity. Some of the playlists conclude exactly one minute sooner or one minute later than what's listed on the cue sheets. The formulas haven't changed so I think it could be that 1/26 playlists' total lengths vary slightly than 1/19? But then there's the playlist for Origin, which is exactly three hours long in TMS but three hours and one minute with the formula/simple equation of 40 minutes of preshow (which it has) plus 2 hours and 21 minutes of film. Maybe it's a TMS clock thing. This only applies to Mean Girls, Poor Things, American Fiction, Origin.

No more leaking in T2 booth this evening.

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.
