1. Cinema (WCC 161)
a. booking
The Weitz Cinema can be reserved by contacting Steve Richardson, Director of the Arts (srichard@carleton.edu; -4389).
b. lights
Just inside the main entrance, on the right side of the door frame as one walks into the space, there's a small panel with a green LED. The buttons on this panel control a number of lighting settings for the room.
c. playing a movie
At the Teaching Station (in front, stage right) In the projection booth, tap the LCD panel once. It will turn on and read, "Welcome to the Weitz. Please press what you want to do." From the column of buttons along the right side of the screen select, for example, "DVD." Insert a DVD or Blu-ray disc into the player and press play. Best practice: The only sure way to head off tech trouble lurking in a given copy of a film, is to watch it in its entirety on the system it's going to play on, with lead time enough to secure another if problems are found.
d. talking
A handheld wireless mic is stored in the teaching station. This can be attached to the teaching station by a gooseneck stored in the same place.
