NPP Projection Close 7/23

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: Lack of a trailer pack ahead of the babies Longlegs screening this afternoon caused the feature to begin and end approximately ten minutes ahead of schedule...not sure who built this SPL but the necessary adjustments have been made for the upcoming Twisters babies screening on 7/30

Plex app and Apple remote were on the fritz again this evening and the Apple TV+ box needed to be rebooted...starting to think the temperature on that shelf above the bar is having some adverse effects on the wiring and causing the connections to go a little haywire

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Scheduled staff screenings for Deadpool & Wolverine in theater 1 on Thursday and Friday and emailed the teams at NPP and NWB

Babies friendly Twisters show playlist was built and scheduled on 7/30 including a trailer pack to avoid any future cue sheet/timing mishaps

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: DJ set up at Trees for the post-screening Teknolust event this evening + intro and screening of the aforementioned film in theater 3 this evening went smoothly

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Tech'd Deadpool & Wolverine after the keys went live and brought down the feature volume in all SPLs from 5.5 to 5.0 (the action scenes/soundtrack are mixed very loudly and the bass channel was very pronounced)

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning:

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Double checked cues for tomorrow, cross referenced the TMS schedule, and initialed for confirmation

Marquee updated?: Removed The Gate and added letters for The Manitou on the 35mm side

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...
