Fixing THE ROOM Without Changing The Script

A lot of what your job is in storyboarding is to fix broken things. Sometimes you get to change the script and other times you just have to work with what you're given. Can we fix The Room?

WARNING: I interchange the two characters names the entire video but honestly who cares it’s all the same to me

[@andreamercado4768]

This is incredible! Your version has way better acting and makes much more sense lol. Love that you decided to board this sequence 😆

[@megumegii]

Please, we need more of this kind of content!! Its so useful to storyboard artists!❤

[@meridiangrayculpepper]

Story is such a niche area that there isn’t a lot of content to help people out. Just trying to share the knowledge as I learn it!

[@julias.7534]

The way you did it was so fun!! It makes it almost feel like some of the tactlessness of the original writing is less "bad writing" and more "these are strange and socially malfeasant people" -- ie Johnny's freakout and Mark laughing at the idea of a girl getting hospitalized.

[@meridiangrayculpepper]

The magic of good directing can fix many a sin of bad writing

I've never watched The Room before but that first clip you showed was just punch after punch I had to take a break to process it

[@digidrawdude]

[@jiatongli6877]

it's my first time heard the theory of a cut need to be motivated. A little confused about the full meaning but feels that I learned a lot.

[@meridiangrayculpepper]

My next video will explain more about a “motivated cut”, be on the lookout!
