NPP Projection Report 3/21 Open
Bit of a long one but everything was pretty smooth today!
To do this evening/ was completed: End credits time for Labyrinth was an entire hour off on the cue sheet. I fixed it for tomorrow, but come on, guys... isn't this why we check them the night before?
FYI - I took the damper out of the exhaust duct for P2 in T4, so it can't be closed at the moment. There's a piece that's loose on it which makes it close partially when exposed to airflow from above, which is what I thought had been the cause of the occasional problem where the lamp brightness dips (more on that below). I put some glue on it which is drying on top of the lens cabinet in 4/6, please don't touch. Thanks!
Presentation Issues: Cleaning lights didn't go down in T2 when preshow for Labyrinth started. The normal show start pack was in the playlist so they should've. I hit the lights up cue from the booth to make sure the lighting automations were working, and it worked. Lighting cues worked normally for the rest of the day.
Preshow Clips/Playlist:
Trailer Updates:
Special Events/ AV set up: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance went well. I did notice a few slight dips in brightness on P2 throughout the show, so the damper is not the cause of the problem. The brightness would also go back up pretty quickly. The lamp looks OK to me physically, definitely has some hours on it but I don't think it's the problem. I think the flicker would be pretty regular if it was, and this is very irregular and usually rights itself. Also there's a label on the lamphouse indicating it was changed in August 2019 with the hours meter only about 450 below where it is now. Since we don't use this lamp as often as the ones in T1 or even P1 in T4 (platter projector), it shouldn't be expired. I'll experiment with the power supplies during the week as I think that may be the issue here. All this said, tomorrow's show should go fine.
