Directing style
Soto constructs a tense, isolated atmosphere by favoring eye-level medium shots and closeups rendered with a consistently shallow depth of field. His naturalistic lighting relies heavily on direct sunlight, practical sources, and window-lit interiors, splitting his work almost evenly between day and night settings. The visual palette leans toward cool, desaturated tones alongside a moody teal-and-orange grade, mixing muted earth tones and dark grays with occasional sharp, saturated accents.
