A text about a contemporary artist from Argentina:
El artista varía la paleta en un revoltijo de colores primarios y lilas, celestes, grises, blancos. Hay un delicado efecto de picado cinematográfico, así como un movimiento ligeramente arremolinado hacia el centro invisible del cuadro, en el que, además del niño, se debaten los membra disjecta de personajes diversos: un oso, una cabeza de pato, un lobo con un ojo carmesí, cubos mágicos, hasta una pata de elefante.
I couldn't ind any references to an effect of this sort on the internet.
Thanks

[cinematographic] high-angle [shot]
Might be a question of what to leave in or out of this, but I believe the "picado" refers to "plano picado" - the "high-angle shot":
En fotografía y cine, el plano picado es una angulación oblicua de la cámara, la cual se coloca mirando hacia abajo la escena, en un ángulo aproximado de 45º o más bajo la horizontal, hasta menos de 90º que sería un ángulo cenital.
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plano_picado
A high-angle shot is a cinematic technique where the camera looks down on the subject from a high angle and the point of focus often gets "swallowed up."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-angle_shot
High-Angle Shot - A shot taken from above a subject, creating a sense of "looking down" upon whatever is photographed.

Something like "a subtle high-angle shot effect" might work ok, as "a subtle cinematographic high-angle effect" seems a little heavy handed, IMO.

PM: Most of your books definitely have a cinematographic touch. The Last Words of Dutch Schultz actually is a film script, and The Wild Boys and Exterminator!
