Projection Admin 12/27



To do this evening/ was completed: It has been a very long day, so I'm going to keep it relatively short: since early this morning, we were experiencing the same issue we've had in T1 (summer, 2023) in which we lose connection to the IMB (zero connection to the server) and this happens about 20 to 30 minutes into a playlist. Initially, rebooting and reseating would hold for a little, then it wouldn't, then we thought moving the cables to a new switch would help, but it didn't. We decided to block off T1, moved around shows, and a technician from DMS and I replaced the server. After the replacement, we sorted out the IP and I added Screenwriter to the T1 IMS, and the T1 IMS to Screenwriter so we could properly transfer content. This took a little while, and I've been flying a little solo on this for the last few hours, but I watched an hour of content without running into any issues. I sent our device exchange request to Deluxe so they can verify our server, update their records, and release new keys. Now we just have to wait for them to do this. You are cc'd on my update email to Matthew, Rebecca, Jess, and House. Thank you, Will, for jumping right in to take care of the flips and for communicating with MOD for other needs whilst I worked on this. Alec will be here in the morning to make cue adjustments since those still need to be added, but this (hopefully) shouldn't be an issue.

Maintenance/cleaning: A quick note on the closed captioning devices in T6 - I came in this morning to find that they just weren't plugged into the projector, proper. They are working just fine now. Not sure when or why this happened, perhaps Yves moved it when he was here, but I don't remember him doing so.

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...

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...
