Ozark

Season 1, Episodes 1 and 2

Director. Jason Bateman
Netflix



Jason and I used episodes 1 and 2 to establish the look of the show — a world where beauty feels threatening, shadows hide secrets, and every frame quietly reminds you there’s no escape. 
Long lenses, dark interiors, daylight struggling to shine in the shadowed corners of Missouri, and an abundance of blue. Too much blue? Perhaps, but it felt right for the characters and the world we created around the Byrde family and their criminal endeavors. 
We shot using the Panasonic Varicam with Hawk anamorphic lenses.
