NPP Projection Close 11/25

To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: Scope masking 2.39 cue was built into the Spartan SPL but was not wide enough for the picture...Lillian was in the auditorium watching and said to trigger the film masking cue but I did not see her message in time...she came up to 4/6 and hit the cue on the quick controls...the image looked fine for the rest of the screening

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Converted the intro slide for Nightmare on Elm Street 4 to DCP and saved it to the P&T drive...later ingested it to the LMS

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Set up the mic and mixer in theater 4 for the intro to Spartan...intro and screening went smoothly (changeovers were nice and clean) save for a brief interlude when the lamp in projector 2 began to go dark and back to light...realized I'd had the damn exhaust valves turned the wrong way thinking they were open (got too used to the valves on booth 1's machines)...and brought the house lights up and corrected this with Lillian's assistance

Cleaned both projectors and returned the mic/mixer equipment back to its proper storage

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): Transferred Holy Grail and Life of Brian from George Ivan to the LMS 

2000 Meters finished transferring from Aspera

Outgoing/Shipping (content):

Print/video Inspection: Spartan is tails out in booth 4

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning:

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Double checked everything for tomorrow...had to stack SPLs for Hamnet and Eternity in the penultimate and final rounds in 5 since the flip time was so short so keep an ear out for any lights up requests and/or if playback fails and you have to skip ahead in the latter show

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?:

Cleaning lights on for the night?: Yes

Projection cart by entrance?: Yes

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.

NPP Projection Admin (Lillian/Will) 7/7

To do this evening/ was completed: Leon Chase for Hank's Saloon came by to tech his film today. He's super happy with the outcome of his DCP and is really, really excited about the screening.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Buena Vista Social Club is just about sorted for this evening -the hosts did not respond to our request for a good quality video of the Tony Awards performance that we could download, so I found it on YouTube and let them know. I made a DCP, which will likely sound good between 3.5 - 4.5, but we'll have 15min to tech it before we open doors for the show!  Superman playlists built - I swapped out the atmos file that was first ingested and got the regular 7.1 in there! Hanks Saloon playlist built Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received posters for Lurker and Pavements and placed them behind 3/7 Ordering/Receiving (content): Downloaded and ingested the Superman pre-show Sorry, Baby i...

Projection Admin 9/8 Lillian/Will

To do this evening/ was completed: Double confirmed with Chris and folks that the print of Vicious Lips is, in fact, Vampire Lovers. They are in the process of sending Cyborg. I took the Vicious Lips trailer out of the playlists that had them, which we'll replace with Cyborg once it's available.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the playlist for Higher Learning .  Trailer Updates: ^ as per the above, we'll be getting the Cyborg trailer and updated version of the Forecast_A for 9/12 sometime tonight.  Special Events/ AV set up: We got the PA system with wireless mics setup for the show tonight in T2. I went through all the pieces of content for the drag performance(s) and confirmed sound/adjusted a few levels for the music, some of which were way too loud. I double checked/techd the lighting cues and wrote the info into the event memo for easy access (not everything seems to be accurate on the sheet, which I will update on Wednesday). Additionally, I upda...
