The documentary uses and develops several forms and conventions from real media products such as Americas Most Wanted. These include green screen shots, interviews throughout the documentary to drive the storyline, and flashbacks with captions to reenact events mentioned in interviews. The documentary also includes voiceovers, background music, and transitions. The poster for the documentary takes conventions from the poster for Ross Kemp on Gangs, including a black and white central photo, different colored text, and text stating the channel.
