Directing style
Peter Berg’s visual style relies on a highly selective depth of field and eye-level camera angles to ground his tense, chaotic action sequences in a visceral, immediate perspective. He favors medium and closeup framing over wider establishing shots, utilizing a cool, desaturated color grade mixed with occasional teal and orange accents to define his interior and exterior spaces. The lighting is primarily motivated by the sun and practical sources, casting a naturalistic illumination over a rugged, muted palette of slate grays, earthy browns, and industrial blues.
