Directing style

Forbes anchors his historical war and Western narratives in naturalistic exterior day scenes, relying heavily on direct sunlight to illuminate a mostly eye-level camera perspective. Compositions favor medium and wide shots that maintain a tense, lonely atmosphere, utilizing a shallow depth of field to isolate characters against their rugged surroundings. The visual palette is defined by a cool, desaturated color grade and earthy sepia tones, dominated by a muted scheme of dusty grays, charcoal, olive greens, and weathered browns.
