Very cool, love the tour. I can see those Christie projectors are older models, does that make it tougher to find people to work maintenance when needed on those, or do they know how to fix just about any model?

There are technicians who work solely on Christie projectors

Interesting video. I'm a former projectionist at a "historic/movie palace"-type theater that still used carbon-burning projectors (this was in the '90s... yep I'm old). I'm assuming it's 2 employees at this theater... you and the kid running concessions downstairs? My local movie theater is a dump run by Cinemark (but I love it BECAUSE it's a dump... there's something to be said for the classic "popcorn and sticky spilled soda" experience you only get from cheap and 2nd-run theaters). I swear they only have 2 employees on any given night: projection and concessions. Ticketing is 100% automated via kiosks. If they could automate concessions and cleaning auditoriums, they would. Hopefully they never automate projection. Sure, it isn't what it used to be in the 35mm days, but at the Cinemark, that room is locked up like a bank vault. It probably looks like a college dorm on the inside.
I think this would be a better video if you did the whole thing in landscape instead of portrait, and also having your face in it less.
Anyway, this is an interesting look behind the scenes. Thank you for sharing it.

Thanks for the input and I enjoyed hearing about your local theatre

as someone who should understand aspect ratios, it 's irritating you couldn't turn your camera sideways :)
