Direction & Visuals Director Carlos Mendez uses a kinetic visual style that feels inspired by both classic noir and modern hyper‑real racing movies. Nighttime cityscapes are drenched in neon blues and purples, while the race footage is captured with handheld cameras that hover close to the cars, delivering an immersive sense of speed. The editing is sharp, especially during the chase sequences, where split‑screen techniques show the parallel progress of the police pursuit and the racers’ own covert tactics.
