Author Topic: Last call for film booth tours Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-04-2013 11:49 AM                     Film is in its final months...does anyone have theater tour photo sets with their film equipment to submit for the archives here either before the digital conversion, or people still running film that haven't converted yet? Please send them now and help us preserve as many images as possible for future generations. Similarly, please do send in your photo tours of your converted digital booths as well.  |  IP: Logged Philip Jones Film Handler Posts: 90 From: England Registered: Dec 2011 posted 08-04-2013 02:33 PM                     I sent ours nearly a year ago but it never got added (assume you were very busy with digital installations etc). I can send it again though if you're uploading some more.  |  IP: Logged Jim Cassedy Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1661 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Dec 2006 posted 08-04-2013 04:03 PM                     I've tried several times in the past few years, and it kept getting bumped back to me because your ISP kept tagging my IP address as a 'known spammer' which is nonsense.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 08-05-2013 01:11 AM                     If you sent them to manuals@ this domain, then it should be in the queue. Feel free to resend though just to be sure. Jim, we may need to have you submit some other way.  |  IP: Logged Paul Gordon Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 580 From: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Registered: Aug 2005 posted 08-05-2013 07:09 AM                        Brad is manuals@ the correct email?... I sent a bunch of photos for the Mayfair Orleans a couple years ago to pictures@ Also I have some home theatre pics from my booth I can send.  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 08-05-2013 11:23 AM                        I sent photos of my theatre a few years ago as well, to whatever address was posted as being the one to send them to. To the best of my knowledge, they were never added to this site.  |  IP: Logged Steve Moore Expert Film Handler Posts: 211 From: Leeds, West Yorks, UK Registered: Apr 2008 posted 08-05-2013 11:40 AM                     Ive sent mine of two cinema i work at (well one now closed) and nothing to both manuals and picture@F-T; but i wondered if the email is too big or goes to junk or something?  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-05-2013 05:22 PM                        I also sent some in a couple of years ago that were also promptly ignored. I am willing to resend them. Where can we send them where they will not be ignored? Is the size limit still 625 pixels wide? I have one more photo I need to take to add to the entire set.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-05-2013 11:16 PM                     I have a decent number of booth photos from the Carmike 8, before and after the conversion to digital. I never posted them anywhere online previously since I didn't want to get my theater GM friend Jack in any trouble with the home office. But he's been gone for a year now. So I might get some FT-friendly sized images put together.  |  IP: Logged Buck Wilson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 894 From: St. Joseph MO, USA Registered: Sep 2010 posted 08-06-2013 01:53 AM                     You should still have some of the Trail theater I sent a while back, I will also take a good number of photos of the Plaza 8 I now work at that is still showing film. It's one of the Durwood 'original' multiplexes. Started out as a 4 in 1983, went 8 in 1991 Edit: Totally forgot, but I ALSO sent in a whole slew of pics for the Hollywood 10 too.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-07-2013 10:47 PM                        OK I resent the pictures and captions to manuals@ as per the instructions in this thread. I know Adam used to be the guy who put these up but since his and Daryl's passing a few years back I hope someone else is able to do it. It's 83 awesome pictures of perhaps one of the most luxurious theaters ever to exist, so it should definitely be on Film-Tech!  |  IP: Logged Paul Gordon Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 580 From: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Registered: Aug 2005 posted 12-05-2013 01:39 PM                        Any word Brad on getting some more booth pictures up on this site? Love to see some new pics.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 12-06-2013 12:29 AM                     There have been submissions, but we've just been too busy to update yet.  |  IP: Logged Rick Raskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1100 From: Manassas Virginia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 12-06-2013 12:58 PM                     quote: Joe Redifer Adam used to be the guy who put these up but since his and Daryl's passing What?  |  IP: Logged Manny Knowles "What are these things and WHY are they BLUE???"
