On today’s episode of In Love with the Process, host Mike Pecci sits down with acclaimed cinematographer Chris Teague, whose latest work includes Lucasfilm’s The Acolyte — the newest installment in the Star Wars universe. Chris’s past credits include visually inventive series like Broad City, Russian Doll, and Only Murders in the Building.
Together, Mike and Chris explore the importance of collaboration, and how doing great work with the right people — no matter the scale — can open doors to massive opportunities. Chris shares how his early days shooting character-driven comedy led to lighting epic sci-fi fantasy, and the lessons learned along the way.
They dive into the creative techniques used to light The Acolyte, the power of practical production design, and why the emotional magic of working with passionate teams can’t be replicated by AI.
This episode is a must-listen for filmmakers, cinematographers, and Star Wars fans curious about how grounded, human artistry fuels the biggest stories in the galaxy.
