As The Duplass Brothers first Sundance short film that got that attention was shot as lo fi as possible with no crew and in one day, you might know that some of Jay and Mark Duplass’ best work comes out of having restrictions. 

With their upcoming HBO anthology series, they have a lot more resources at their disposal, but made sure to stay true to their roots by imposing a handful of rules in making and shooting each episode. Based off how the show looks and feels already, we think this was probably a pretty good call on their part.

See what the rules are here, then look for the series premiere of Room 104 on July 28th.

This is especially nice if you’re not able to go to Largo where Acker & Blacker‘s Thrilling Adventure Hour normally calls home because of price or it not being anywhere near where you live. 

See what goes on beyond the high society casual ghost hunters Frankie and Sadie Doyle, how the show develops, and more.
