Directing style
Jonathan Milott constructs tense, oppressive interior worlds by relying heavily on eye-level medium shots and closeups captured with a shallow depth of field to isolate characters. His lighting relies on naturalistic sources, primarily using daylight from windows and the sun, alongside harsh fluorescent fixtures, to illuminate his scenes. The visual palette is defined by a stark contrast between monochromatic sequences and cool, desaturated color grades dominated by deep forest greens, muted olives, and dark slates.
