Show Reports
============
Under The Shadow – Thursday; Q-Proj: Jonatan; T-Proj: Matt
• We have heard no complaints. Matt says nothing too terrible happened (it was fine!).

Rogue One – Friday; Q-Proj: Phil, Kieran; T-Proj: Josh, Irene
• Both shows were fine, except the CD player stopped during the late even though it was on repeat. Keep an eye on this. There was a shutdown for the early.

Moana – Saturday; Q-Proj: Hannah, Kieran; T-Proj: Hazel, Matt
• Was fine. Prepared for shutdown but it didn't happen.

Silver Linings Playbook – Sunday; Q-Proj: Richard; T-Proj: Josh
• Was also fine. FoH was done due to earlier snaps test. Richard says he did absolutely nothing.

The Social Network – Monday; Q-Proj: Hannah; T-Proj: Hazel
• Was also fine. Had trouble extracting KDM but re-downloading it worked.

Forrest Gump – Tuesday; Q-Proj: Phil; T-Proj: Richard
• Went well. DTS lost timecode on P2 and Richard is unhappy with his changeovers. Some were due to Richard needing more training, others because header/footer frames were missing (thus unequal).
• CP500 died (turned screen off but lights were on still. Richard says line appeared on screen and warning icon appeared).
