Directing style

Tsuji anchors his crime dramas in tense, interior-driven spaces, relying heavily on eye-level medium shots and closeups that isolate characters within a shallow depth of field. Natural and practical illumination dominates his scenes, with daytime sunlight and fluorescent fixtures casting a cool, desaturated color grade over a muted palette of slate grays, dusty olives, and stark blacks. This combination of tight, eye-level blocking and clinical lighting evokes a stark sense of isolation and imminent violence.
