Projection Close 3/30 Lillian



To do this evening/ was completed: Back from France. Happy to be here. Getting more up to speed with the past couple of days, checking blogs, made a good chunk of notes for myself with how to proceed this next week. Alec filled me in on quite a bit. There was a lot going on the first part of today.

Alec's written about this in his blog from today, but the projector did, in fact, keep running just fine once we got it up before the second to last round. For power, the 2215 projectors have two inlets for power: main inlet and secondary inlet being the 'A' and 'A & B,' the former of which would use only one power cable to power the projector, the latter uses an uninterrupted power supply (which is what the APCs are for) and there's an AC switch that was on 'A' instead of 'A & B.' I switched it back to the right one and it's working well. We're not sure if this is the sole purpose of our troubles, but we'll keep updating you guys. I checked the  'A' cable and it's plugged into the same powerstrip that the cooling unit is also currently using...
Will, let us know if you have any issues tomorrow morning. 


Friendly reminder that Interstellar will get picked up tomorrow by Matthew since it's gotta be at WB stat.

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.
