Directing style
David Slade constructs tense, insular worlds by favoring tight closeups and a shallow depth of field that isolates characters from their environments. He maintains a grounded perspective through a near-exclusive use of eye-level camera angles, staging his scenes almost equally across day and night, interiors and exteriors. His visual palette is defined by a cool, desaturated color grade dominated by slate blues, deep charcoals, and icy whites, which is punctuated by high-contrast, warm accents of amber and orange cast from practical lamps, windows, or firelight.
