Unfortunately i couldn’t make a post on the project yesterday, and in 41 minutes today would have flown past without an update if it wasn’t for this intervention.
I’ve had a crazy 48 hours, a content drive was brought in by a (well meaning) member of the production team that had a very aggressive window s virus embedded. In many way’s i feel partly responsible for this setback as it should be policy to scan all new hard drives before introducing them to our system. Unfortunately tight schedules and heavy loads on the servers means that scanning every gigabyte of data brought through our doors would increase programming time by a third at least.
Anyway, i’ve been forced to spend excessive amount of overtime cleaning, checking and reconfiguring the system after this set back and by around lunch time today i finally pulled us back on track. the first (clean) bits of media finally wandered their way onto our system this afternoon and i have to say the show is going to look stunning. Unfortunately do to frantic programming there have been no photos today, but i promise more tomorrow!
20 Projectors and most of our signal distro and processing will arrive tomorrow on a truck from Paris. Also the first members of our onsite team will be in prepping the show. Should be a fun day!
