NPP Projection Report 6/20 Open



To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues: The website had the 12pm Toy Story 5 listed as OCAP for today, but we had the 11am scheduled as OCAP following Matthew's film schedule. A guest at the 11am show complained about the captions, but Rebecca and I decided not to stop the movie and switch to the CCAP version for one guest. I also swapped the 12pm show in T2 to OCAP for today since that's what was on the website. Toy Story OCAP listings are correct for tomorrow and the rest of the week on the website.

Special Events/ AV set up: Bueller and Devil Queen played well.

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: Not sure what was up with the Captiview in T3 last night, but they were working fine for me in there this morning. Reminder: the transmitter for 3 is connected to a USB-over-Ethernet extender inside the theater since the signal from the booth was a bit weak and led to a lot of dialogue not being displayed on the devices. This connects to the USB 2.0 port on the IMS with a red braided USB cable. The extender/transmitter is under the screen next to the mic mixer, though reseating the cable at the IMS/projector end should be sufficient. A few theaters use the extenders for the CCAP transmitter, and they are always connected to the USB 2.0 port and the transmitter is always under the curtain. Otherwise, the transmitter itself will be connected to the IMS's USB 2.0 port. I re-sat that USB cable in 3 before testing, maybe that did the trick.                 
--Also should note that one of the devices was dead since its charger had been unplugged from the outlet. Another would not display any text unless it was plugged into the charger. I replaced the latter device with a spare and labeled it as broken. Also made sure all the chargers are plugged in.
---Lastly, the devices labeled "Fidelio" on the wall in the booth only affect the assisted listening signal, so if you're having CaptiView trouble there's no need to reset these.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Added the extra time for the Butterfly Effect Q&A to Tuesday's cue sheet.

Marquee updated?: In addition to everything else we lost yesterday, we also lost Scary Movie so I took those letters down. 

Posters updated?: Replaced the Scary Movie poster with The Invite (with coming soon banner)

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

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...
