NPP Projection Report 8/11 Admin


To do this evening/ was completed:

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Went through all of the LMS schedule for next week with the updated schedule Matthew sent out last night and made all necessary adjustments.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: 1.37 lenses and plates in place in T1, ran loops on both projectors.

Ran a loop in T4 for Odyssey. Cleaned the platter and projector before threading.

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers):

Ordering/Receiving (content): 

Outgoing/Shipping (content): Reached out to HFC for Beavis return labels.

Print/video Inspection: I was just checking the Crash inspection report to see if it had all been inspected. This is 1.66, not 1.85! I changed that in the report.

Looked at Heat Lightning with Cristina. It's pretty quiet so we set the volume to 10. cues added to the playlist. 

We also went through the playlist to check the preshow and the short. All good!

Asset tracking doc updated/checked?:

Maintenance/cleaning: I emailed everyone about this but mentioning it here, too. The bottom roller on projector 1 seems like it's completely normal. When no film is engaged on it, it spins freely like it's supposed to. It also was spinning when I ran test film onto the platter. When I went to thread Odyssey, it spun normally when I ran the frameline leader through but, after I turned the motor over by hand using the flywheel, it did not spin when I switched the motor on again to check. So I think it has something to do with stopping the motor, advancing by hand, then starting the motor again that's causing it to freeze up. Just wiggle it gently forward/backward along the metal shaft after starting the show and it should start spinning again.

Cue sheets updated/checked (every shift): Built cue sheets for next week. Credit times missing for SE DCPs that still need to be teched (Bottle Rocket, Onda Nova, Trees Lounge) and most timing for Top gun is missing since the event memo isn't done yet.

Marquee updated?:

Posters updated?: Yes; Minions down, Paw Patrol up.

Cleaning lights on for the night?:

Projection cart by entrance?:

Additional Notes:

NPP Projection Report 11/23 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Checked the Home Alone DCP ahead of the private event this morning, no issues. The party was a bit late seating, so the movie start was a little bit delayed. Overall it ran smoothly. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Kat will be making a DCP of Guardians of the Galaxy tomorrow for the private event in T1 on Tuesday morning. Chenelle will get the blu-ray sent over here for us to have as backup. I set up the blu-ray player so it's connected to both the monitor and the projector, in case we end up needing to use the blu-ray. I sent Lillian and McKegg an email about this separately. I checked the scope blu-ray projector channel in Theater 1 and it's good to go should we need to screen the blu-ray. I started the DCP of Death Race 2000 on the T1 Mac. Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Asset tracking d...

To do this evening/ was completed: Our Network has been updated. Nick from DMS came in to drop off the relay mechanism and take a look at 3/7 before his install visit next week. I showed him in and around the space and he checked in with the WiFi guys. He also liased with Chris whilst scoping out the existing relay system in in 3/7.  It is still somewhat of a wreck in the 46 booth (cables and boxes that, to my knowledge, need to be thrown out, but I asked if they were going to clean up/what needs to be cleared out and I didn't get a proper response in both English and when I asked in Spanish lol so apparently someone might be coming round to finish that up tomorrow. If we don't, we can call Juan and double check. I did tidy things up though, so at least it's not absolute chaos in here.  Once the Network was up and properly running, I tested out theatres 4 and 6 to see if anything needed to be rebooted and lo n behold, only the dimmer panels needed to be rebooted in all the...

To do this evening/ was completed: School Screening in T3 went very well this morning, started it up early, but just a friendly reminder - if you tech something the night before its show date (let alone first thing in morning), at the very least please log volume and/or build a playlist. I was in early so it wasn't much of an issue, but it helps to have this sorted beforehand. Also, special screener of The Drama for Jared and Lauren went just fine, too. Feature seems kind of low, volume wise, but once it opens up in other screening rooms this week, I'll take another look and adjust as needed. - LH Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Built the playlist for Revelations of Divine Love . Tech'd Stranger by the Lake and noticed it wasn't scheduled on the LMS yet, so I scheduled it and transferred preshow content and the feature to T2. Feature has now been techd along with the Be Gay Do Crime preshow. Made a slight adjustment to the cue sheets - LH  We can't quit...
