NPP Projection Report 7/18 Close
To do this evening/ was completed:
Presentation Issues:
Preshow Clips/Playlist:
Trailer Updates:
Special Events/ AV set up:
Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):
Ordering/Receiving (content): I shared a Google Drive folder with the team for the private event on Monday, so they can upload their final version here instead of Dropbox. They asked me to password protect the folder, an impossibility, before they upload to it. I told them I couldn't and that it's only accessible to Nitehawk and the people in their group I shared it with, so hopefully they go with it and don't try to force a Dropbox link on us.
Also, Chenelle confirmed this will be a ProRes (even though she asked them to provide a DCP since they're getting it to us so late), so we're going to have to convert it.
Outgoing/Shipping (content): Deleted old playlists and content.
Print/video Inspection: Inspected The Man in Possession. It's mostly good, though there is a small issue which shouldn't detract from the screening terribly but may be worth mentioning to the audience: The film was printed on 1K reels and spliced together onto 2K reels for projection, which is the case with most prints of 30s films we get. Where two reels were spliced together, someone had the bright idea to put a piece of paper tape on the film to label the end of the first reel. Over time, this tape caused some discoloration to parts of the film. Each reel has about 3 instances of discoloration, which looks like sepia, for less than a second, then the piece of tape which obscures the image for another split second, then 3 more instances of discoloration. The tape is so old and brittle that I was able to gently bend the film which would release some of it. I was able to get just about all the tape off of reel 3, most off of reels 2 and 4, and hardly any from reel 1. This issue is not present on final reel 5, as this one is just a single 1K reel. To reiterate, this is pretty minor as far as presentation goes but it is going to occur with enough frequency that it may be worth mentioning. Up to Cristina's discretion (with whom I will share this note directly).
