The fact that he filmed this with two cameras simultaneously is both astounding and ridiculous.

[@budusbusham3324]

The Room is technically a groundbreaking film that pushed at the boundaries of cinematic craft/technique through shooting on both film and digital at the same time. Unfortunately, like everything to do with The Room, it was terribly executed, illy conceived and just plain old shit.

[@basp-ef7jx]

@@budusbusham3324 My theory as to why he used two cameras, is that he had absolutely no idea what he was doing. When they asked him what format he wanted to use, he was so stubborn that instead of asking for help he just said both. Now he claims it was some genius and revolutionary idea, when it was more than likely just an ignorant guy with boatloads of money, and no experience.

[@budusbusham3324]

Film crews are always questioning the quality of the production, but nobody ever really knows how a movie will turn out. The English crews on Star Wars and Aliens bashed the movies during production, and thought the directors were buffoons. On the other hand sometimes a crew will think a movie is going to be a big hit and sweep the Oscars, while instead, the movie releases with a "thud". I have heard low budget crews talk about a fledgling director as though he was Orson Wells, calling him a genius. Anyway, it's just a job, and the best policy is to always take the job seriously and do the best you can so you can continue working in the future.

[@MrJIMBOfred]

So the guy who filmed the documentary had a massive camera fetish.

[@hankhill7827]

The reason why it's of interest is because of the setup, it's two cameras rigged side by side filming at the same time. The Room was shot in both film and digital video as an experiment on Tommy's part. Although the use of several cameras filming the same angle at once has been done before, for example in 1962, How The West Was Won was shot with three cameras to create a wider image. The purpose of Tommy's experment was to be able to have two copies of The Room, one shot on 35mm film like normal movies were at the time, and one in digital video which would have been novel back in 2003. Digital was not a format that was in any way mainstream for filmmakers until around 2010 with the devolpment of cameras like the Arri Alexa. Tommy was obivously curious about the possiblities of digital filmmaking and did it as an exercise to see if it could be any good and as a gimmick to promote the film. So it's just the guy is obvously interested in it because it is a unique and interesting camera setup that no one would've ever seen before.
