Projection Close 4/24



To do this evening/ was completed: No issues this evening. Quite a quiet night on my end. Waiting to hear back from the folks with Dogville.

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Went over the A1 and SE playlists for this upcoming week to double check everything. 
I watched the last bit of Civil War this evening and noticed that the first bit of credits are against a white backdrop, which is where the lights first come up. I'm going to take another look at this tomorrow as I think we should change the cue in the playlist so that it doesn't obstruct the image or take folks out of the movie a little too early. 

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: 

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Checked the TMS schedule for any missing KDMs. Uploaded new keys for Civil War and La Chimera. 

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Inspected the last three reels of Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. Print report is available. Last three reels suffer from some warping, but it's certainly projectable. Nothing to really worry that much about, it just might be a tad bit annoying when threading up. Something to be mindful of. 
I added print pics to the drive, but mind you, Alec probably has much better ones from the first set of reels...but I think there's some good ones in the small mix! There's a fun credits roll out, too - someone's hands are playing the piano...

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Thoroughly swept and mopped both the T1 and 4/6 booth as they were both getting a little dusty. 

Checked in with the gear grease for the projectors in T4. 

Took the trash out in T1. 

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes. 

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

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.
