Projection Admin 2/27



To do this evening/ was completed: Had a bit of an early look at the drive to see if Kat had already uploaded what we'll receive tomorrow for the week of 3/07. Downloaded and ingested the new forecasts and the trailer for Kings of Comedy. 

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the playlist(s) for Mickey 17 and You Can Count on Me

Trailer Updates: I updated the 02/28 R and PG13 trailer packs to make the Policy louder at 4.5, which I've found to be the correct volume. 

Special Events/ AV set up: Ingested the DCP of You Can Count on Me. 

Got my eyes on Porcelain War. Playlist is all set and checked for this evening. 

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Downloaded and ingested the Bong Joon Ho and Mickey 17 preshow content. 

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Went through the coming week and cleared even more off the LMS and individual servers today, which we can continue to do as certain features leave certain theatres. Cleared various preshow content. T3's has more storage than is currently visible on the LMS - it just hasn't registered the change yet. 

Print/video Inspection: 

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Received our new RCA cables. We'll have these for each theatre now, covered for multiple events without hassle. 

Spent quite a bit of time adjusting lens and projector focus for the scope lenses. P1 is not as crispy as P2, so I'll need to work on this a little bit more, but it should be a great show tonight. I ran a reel of Virtuosity again and just want to note that the print is a little on the soft side, so don't make yourself go crazy thinking about how sharp you can make it. 


Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Yes. One note I forgot to add yesterday, but please be careful with the military time clock on the LMS when making the cue sheets. I know it's a little annoying, but just be sure to double check since we can't change the clock. 

Marquee updated?: 

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

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...
