Brooker pointed out that directors of Black Mirror episodes (in this case, Wright) have more "power" than in serialised television shows, as "it is like making a short film", and he said that Wright had "been feeling quite bruised after doing Pan, and [Black Mirror] was a good thing for him to get his teeth into which wasn't the full five-year commitment of a movie".[1] McGarvey had previously worked with Wright.[2] Watching rushes from the filming, Brooker was initially sceptical about Wright's saccharine style, but began to understand it as the filming progressed and the music was added.[3] The scenes in which Lacie is driving utilise a computer-generated landscape designed by Dan May, the episode's art director.[4] She was initially planned to drive through multiple landscapes such as a desert, but this was changed for budget reasons.[5]
