To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Made a playlist for the I Love Boosters intro and scheduled it for tomorrow. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Set up a mic in T3 for tonight's intro. It's on a stand. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Coyote vs. Acme and Tony posters added to the caddy. Ordering/Receiving (content): Ingested Backrooms to the LMS. Also re-ingested Ferris Bueller since we're showing it for brunch later in June. Strangers on a Train and Heroes for Sale prints came in. Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Rugrats keys don't open until tomorrow, so I couldn't tech it today. I did add the lights up cue to the feature in both versions of the playlist. Looked at Communion and added the feature to the playlist. FYI--there's an AGFA snipe at the top of the DCP which is louder, so there are two volume cues attached to it in the playlist. Started inspecting Mission:...

To do this evening/ was completed: Maddie's Secret ingested to LMS. Communion DCP downloaded and ingested too. Inspected the rest of The Master, put it on house reels. Good condition. Spoons and Boosters both went smoothly. Mics back in booth, T1 equipment broken down. The shutdown playlist overrode the pause cue in T2 during the Q&A portion. I caught it immediately and brought lights back down and mics back on. This happened before the director took the stage so the Q&A itself went smoothly. Also small FYI, the mic stands needed for Spoons need to be the ones with the larger microphone holders to fit the wireless mics. Had to get one of those from T3.  **Mixer cabling in T1 might need slight tidying.** Can do Friday. Double-checked cue sheets at end of the night but would recommend one more once-over.

To do this evening/ was completed: We are all setup for NoBudge tonight! Ran through the entire playlist front to back. Tested mics/spots. No chairs. This should be a breeze tonight.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Tech'd Monos and added volume/house lights up cues for credits. Feature has a hot mix so it's rest at 4.0 vol right now, but feel free to bring it up to maybeeee 4.3. Only 13 tickets sold, so I don't think that'll be necessary.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: The keys for I Love Boosters came in (the first round) for the special screening this week. Ostensible, there are slides in the DCP we received; an intro slide and a Q&A slide. The keys open up tomorrow morning, so please take a look first thing. Thanks!  Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Keys for Mario Bros, Project Hail Mary, and The Drama are in.  I reached out about the DCP of Amreeka and they sent it pretty much straight awa...

To do this evening/ was completed:  Just a few important notes so everyone is aware - 1. We're still waiting to hear back from some Sony folks to give us the proper shipping info for Ladies of Leisure , which is in the 4/6 booth, so please refrain from shipping. 2.

To do this evening/ was completed: Alec setup for Morricone Youth tonight and will be back later this evening to assist with the show.  One of the school screenings tomorrow switched their film to Sheep Detectives. I've updated the LMS schedule.  Tech'd Obsession today, which sounds better at 5.5.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Kat sent trailer lists through the first week of June as she'll be gone. Built all new A1 playlists for 5/22 and finished up a few things for this week. We are still waiting on Amreeka (which should come in either tonight or tomorrow) and the DCP for Jason and Shirley is still uploading to the e-delivery site, so we can't download it just yet. Additionally, I asked for a bit of clarification as it looks like they sent this first DCP as a backup and will send the official version soon...

NPP Projection Report 5/12 Admin (Alec)/Mid (McKegg)

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: I reached out to John about a Film Feast slide for tomorrow. He'll get us one, but for now, the NH logo slide is in the playlist. There is in fact a 4.8 volume cue so I added that to the appropriate shorts in the NoBudge playlist. For the 1.90 short (there's only one), we'll just play it with the 1.85 lens channel and 1.85 masking. Looks fine that way. The Mario school screening was scheduled in T1 for today; this isn't until Friday. I moved it. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ran loops for Ladies of Leisure tonight. Checked over the playlist, too, it's all set. McKegg and I set up the turntables for the DJ set before tonight's Precode Parade screening. I also put the table out for Trivia. The Jurassic Park private event in T5 went fine. They ended up wanting Spanish subtitles for the film so I used the blu-ray. I saved the DCP we made, though. Seems a likely future pi...

To do this evening/ was completed: John got a response back in regard to shipping rates - FedEx is still shuffling a lot around in general, but we should have our discounted plan back up and running by tomorrow. We will keep you updated. - L Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the playlists for Ferris Beuller and Prince Achmed (need to tech achmed and the shorts). Built the second private playlist for tomorrow (Super Mario Bros) and made sure both private screenings are scheduled for tomorrow morning.  - L Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Setup the external speakers, yamaha, and wireless mic mixer in T2. Just turn everything on. Tested spots (preset info in the event memo!) and mics. I went through the playlist to double check volume for the drag show and feature. Note - I mentioned this before, but friendly reminder that I have added a volume cue about halfway through Suburbia's set since there's multiple songs and the last one needs to be louder. Sho...

NPP Projection Close 5/10

To do this evening/ was completed: Built playlists for The Wiz, Blue Velvet, Monos (still waiting on feature) and NoBudge. T1 looks like it doesn't have 1.90 lens cue at the moment--two of the shorts are listed as 1.90 lens on event memo. Also no 4.8 volume cue on Screenwriter so I made those shorts 5.0 and will be working the event so will know to drop it by .2 when they come on. Still waiting on custom preshow for Film Feast. New 35mm letters up and took down brunch side letters at the end of the night, right as a large crowd started to materialize, so I'll put up new brunch letters tomorrow.

Projection Close 5/9

To do this evening/ was completed: Somewhat mysterious activity in T1 as, during final round, it seems as though the cue for the volume change (for the feature) did not execute ( I was walkied to go to T2 instead of 1, which was then corrected by James, but this delayed the fix), then later on the lights for the credits didn't execute. No projector issue, no server or lighting panel issue indicated anywhere...I went through the same playlist once last round was over and had no issues at all. Regardless, please keep an eye on T1 tomorrow.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Brought the volume up for Michael. Playlists adjusted.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Inspected all of Hanging with the Homeboys.

To do this evening/ was completed: Back in the swing of things. Thanks for the coverage, folks.  Got our new macbook setup today and printed out a label for it. I transferred all of our preexisting information from the old to the new, including Splashtop, which is ready to go. I've tested it, too, just in case. The password for the user NPP Projection is the same as it was before. The old macbook is in the box the new one came in and we can still use it in a pinch if need be.  There are two assisted listening devices out right now - one in T4 and another in T1.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Tech'd both Sheep Detectives and Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat is very loud, so I brought it down to 5.0, whereas Sheep Detectives might need a lift. Let's see how it's sounding with a crowd tomorrow.

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Converted the slides and music tracks for the Men In Black drag performance and ingested them. Made a tech playlist which I transferred to Theater 2. Scheduled staff screenings and made a 7shifts announcement. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Pulled out 4 chairs for tonight's Q&A in Theater 1. There are two on each side of the screen. For the preshow music, I pulled up an Arthur Baker Spotify playlist on the iMac. **There will now be 7 people for the Q&A , so we'll need 3 more chairs. I didn't pull these out yet so as not to crowd the stage. 1.50 masking for Obsession is set in all theaters (except 5 where there is not enough curtain). I used the preset we had been using for 2.20 in 1, 2, 4, and 6 and made a new "1.50" cue on those servers rather than use the 2.20 cue. This is so the T5 playlist doesn't end up with the 2.20 cue. 3 and 7 use the Variable Ratio c...

It's on the T2 rack PC. Scheduled the coming week in LMS. SE playlists still need to be built. Uncut Gems went smoothly. Print is tails out.

NPP Projection Report 5/2 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Uncut Gems went nicely in T1 today. I missed one changeover cue--at the end of reel 5--but I saw the motor cue so there was just a few seconds of leader on screen. Be careful with this one, looking at the bench it should be just visible but easy to miss. I brought all the reels plus the Master trailer up to 4/6 for Monday's show. Puddysticks intro was smooth. They used two mics. I brought the poster and easel down to the bar storage closet. Mics were broken down and put away after the following round ended; I was in the middle of running Gems when Puddysticks finished. I left two mic stands under the curtain for tomorrow.
