Style
Bowman's signature visual style involves lighting contrasts within a scene, including framing actors as silhouettes. X-files writer and producer Frank Spotnitz said that Bowman works very hard to make every "scene as beautiful and as complimentary to the story as possible". He said that Bowman's camera movements were never gratuitous and were deliberately planned to aid viewers in understanding what was happening in a scene. Spotnitz complimented Bowman's attention to lighting for mood, saying "You would think that on a television schedule you don't have time to compose and think thoroughly about all these issues, but Rob really does."
