Projection Close 3/17



To do this evening/ was completed: Quiet evening, but large, enthusiastic crowds for Dune II. Made the rounds, no issues. 

It's worth noting that the other day we had a nice projection meeting with all the Prospect projectionists to go over setups, lamp changes, and other such things. We'll be doing more of this. 

Working on our backup plan for coverage since Audrey will, unfortunately, not be continuing with work here. Alec and I will keep everyone updated and have a decent idea of what we might need at this time. 

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Checked the playlists for 3/22, including SEs.
Checked the KDMs. 

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: CCAP device back in the storage closet. 

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): At some point tomorrow we should hopefully be receiving a CRU drive with a few DCPs on it for a private tech on Monday. The filmmaker just wants to check out the files at a venue, so this is not for an event. I've made sure those on tomorrow are looped into the email thread with his contact info should we need to reach out. 

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Boyz in the Hood will get out this upcoming week. Still in T1 FYI. 

Print/video Inspection:

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Read through and made notes on the manual for the mixer we use for Live Band setups. Cleaned T4. 

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes. Added info for the special events this week sans Parasite. Event Memo still needs to be filled out for that one. No Ghostbusters KDM yet. 

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.
