There were much fewer than 1,000 seats in ther overflow seating in room 501, and during the ultraman fight scene at the beginning, someone tripped over the projector cord. If I didn't run back there to push the power button and turn it back on (I work with projectors and recognized the problem right away) then place chairs in front of the plug so it didn't get knocked out again, no one in room 501 would have seen the hugo ceremony at all...

And, sorry to gripe, but the camera switching and audio-feed into that room was painful to watch, apparently with no one up there to give feedback to whoever was controlling the panel downstairs.

After the third time they switched AWAY from the "in memoriam" list in the middle of it to show faces in the audience, I decided to just walk out. I really would have liked to be able to read those names.
