DM Meeting @ 2008-10-28 18:08:00
6:08pm, Kami Lounge.
(1) Welcome and apologies.
Present: Matt, George, James, Jeffrey (late), Martin, Natalie, Pierre, Rachel, Rob (late).
Apologies: Andrew, Mike, Rob (for being late).
(2) Rotas.
(3) Quantum of Solace.
Next Monday still looks good. Should be after the proj meeting, maybe getting to the Skydome a little after seven to buy tickets, eating somewhere and then watching the film. [There are showing at 20:00, 21:00 and 21:30]. George can give some people (such as the Chief DM) a lift, James has a bus pass. Empire gives the film 4 stars, but Rachel thinks it may be disappointing due to being "painfully overhyped".
(4) George's publicity matters.
George asked if anybody had distributed some of the booklets. Nobody had. George is suprised that there is only one box left.
George said that if weekly publicity wasn't handed out before shows then everybody would be killed. Pierre responded that if weekly publicity hadn't been produced in time then George should be killed. Rachel suggested some weekly publicity is taken to Proj & DM meetings so that each person can take a few for their department. This used to happen at Proj meetings.
(5) AOB.
* Pierre asked if anybody wanted special types of clothing. Ties are already being looked into.
* Pierre reminded those present that most trailers at our U films don't have a U certificate so trainee DMs should be trained to suggest that customers with children wait outside.
* Pierre asked about the maximum number of stewards. It is of course 20, although crowding the door should be avoided just as much as crowding the tills.
