NPP Projection 5/26 Admin

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: The ceiling light in T4 continued to flicker/turn on throughout the first round (noticed the room was dark this morning and any attempt to bring the house lights up via the sound rack switches kept it in darkness...once the house lights did come up only the malfunctioning ceiling panel and center bulbs turned on...switch controls seem to be working in reverse for some reason); MODs are aware and Paul reached out to Matthew about contacting additional electricians since Vlad was unavailable today

**Update: cleaning lights did not trigger at the end of the first round and the room was left in darkness through the credits; tried resetting the light control panel on the sound rack but unplugging/plugging this back in made no difference (current pre-show light configuration heading into the second round, only the center lights are on and the ceiling panel is still flickering intermittently):


**Update #2: second round just began...ceiling light is on and flickering but guests have been made aware...all attempts made to shut it off manually have failed and there is no use throwing the switch on the breaker to kill the auditorium lights as it will affect the sound (highly recommend cancelling all programming in this auditorium tomorrow if we cannot fix this issue by the morning)

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.
