NPP Projection Close 6/27

To do this evening/ was completed: Made the rounds throughout the evening and took note of volume levels for the newer first runs (Kinds of Kindness might need a boost but could use a second set of ears on it...it is opening to large crowds so an adjustment could be needed over the weekend)

Presentation Issues: Had to remove a strip of tape from the right of frame on the port glass window in front of projector 2 -- in booth 1 -- during DOA because of how much it was covering up the picture on screen (there was a noticeably crooked black line along the edge of it and the image looked much better without it) and it should probably remain this way for future scope films


Preshow Clips/Playlist: 

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Tech'd the "Smack That" video in theater 1 and added a volume cue to the DOA show playlist (it was far too loud at 5.0 so it was brought to 4.2) + DOA screening went smoothly

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Re-inspected the DOA print after the show, packaged it for return shipping, and scheduled a pickup for tomorrow before bringing it downstairs (a return label was included and this was placed atop the box the print was shipped in) + placed the Best of the Best II trailer back on its core and organized the spare leader onto separate cores

NPP Projection Open 12/28

To do this evening/ was completed: Scheduled 1/3 - 1/9 in LMS. A few manual starts in there. I scheduled those shows just a minute or two after their real start time to get the content transferred, just FYI. Started building the cue sheets as well. Got the first three days done. SE screenings went smoothly.

Projection Admin (and Close) 10/19

To do this evening/ was completed: Real quick - It was a great day! For tonight, I've let MOD know that, since I'm more comfortable staying until most of the last round starts (due to some funky server issues we've been having), I'm going to go see a movie in T2 and can silently text with them if they need anything or should anything go wrong (knocking on wood).  Extremely thrilled to say that all three NewFest shows went very well this morning/afternoon. It was definitely a bit of a magic trick with some overlapping intros/Q&As but having my personal ROS helped so much. Thank you to Desmond, NewFest rockstar.  Desmond and I double checked all shows before doors. Gaffed the wired mics and tested everything. Since one guest for the q&a in T2 wasn't comfortable with the chairs, we swapped our directors chairs for the ones in the bar, which still worked super well with the slides and spots.  Had to ride the mic in trees a bit since everyone's got a differen...

NPP Projection Report 4/6 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Theater 3 issue happened again, Carly radioed me that the second round preshow didn't start. I was able to restart the projector and put the preshow on about 12 minutes before lights down. Trailers/feature played fine after that. I wrote again to DMS and Jerry said he'll have a list of parts to replace on Monday. For the sake of clarity, here is everything I've gathered about this issue: -When it happens, you won't be able to control playback via the TMS, manually fire automation cues, or access the IMS web GUI at all -Schedules for Theater 3 will display as "KDM missing" and the storage health icon on the Overview page will say "Storage degraded," even though the storage is healthy and KDMs have been uploaded and are active. -This issue prevents the server from validating KDMs (even though they are there and valid), so encrypted content will not play with the server in this state. If the projector goes into this st...
