Projection Close 6/14



To do this evening/ was completed: Jared radioed me to let me know that part of the preshow sounded far, far too low, which turned out to be the How To Order drama (G). I brought it up to 4.2 from 3.5 and adjusted all the 6/13 - 6/19 playlists. I put the DCP  in dcpomatic to see if a level adjustment can work a treat for our usual 3.5 in the screening rooms. The V2 has been ingested and I'll check it out Monday/will update the 6/20 playlists and delete the old How To if it works. 

Presentation Issues: No other issues. 

Preshow Clips/Playlist:

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Attempting to download the Sydney and Kim short (in 4/6 now), yet again, since it was still struggling in T1. I reached out to see if the hosts can use any other transfer setup. We'll see. 

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): I ingested the PS107 film to screen 2 just to get eyes and ears on it before it screens soon. As expected, it's a weird mix and will need to stay between 4.0 ~ 4.5, I reckon. Reached out to the host to see if they'd like to do a quick tech check before the day. 

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection:

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning:

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

Marquee updated?: Terribly slippery/wet marquee, lost a lot of grip. We might need to wait another day. See how the weather fairs in the morning. 

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

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...
