projectionist
Cinema booth worker
A projectionist is the person who operates a film projector in a movie theater, responsible for threading reels, maintaining focus, and ensuring smooth playback.
The role has diminished with digital projection, which requires less hands-on operation.
The projectionist spliced the broken film and restarted the show.
