Computer Chess is a 2013 independent comedy-drama film written and directed by Andrew Bujalski. The film premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Alfred P. Sloan Feature Film Prize, and subsequently screened at such festivals as South by Southwest and the Maryland Film Festival.

Production

The film was shot by cinematographer Matthias Grunsky using black-and-white analog video tube cameras from the 1970s, specifically Sony AVC-3260 models. Director Andrew Bujalski and Grunsky chose this obsolete technology to authentically recreate the visual aesthetic of early 1980s video technique.

Grunsky's cinematography earned him a nomination for Best Cinematography at the 2014 Independent Spirit Awards. The experimental approach to the film's visual style was praised by critics, with reviewers noting how the archaic video format contributed to the film's unique tone and humor.
