In 'Hacks', co-creator Lucia Aniello explains how the show's visual language evolved to reflect the deepening bond between Deborah and Ava, shifting from placing them opposite each other like a western standoff to finally framing them together in the same shot, particularly in the final scenes in Paris and Las Vegas, to visually represent their emotional closeness.

‘Hacks’ Co-Creator Lucia Aniello on Why Deborah & Ava Finally Share the FrameAdded:
The way that it evolved into season 5 was just the idea of wanting to keep them in frame together more.
Because so often in the first bunch of seasons, we would often have them as you mentioned earlier that I would say kind of like in a western across from each other budding heads and they have obviously grown closer as people but that it you can see like so often that when they're in agreement we do have them in the frame together. So like for example the very last frames, the ones in Paris and then again in Las Vegas has them the two of them in the in the shots.
