ShotDeck x ASC Lookback: Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery (2025)
Cinematographer Steve Yedlin, ASC @steveyedlin has collaborated with writer-director Rian Johnson @riancjohnson for decades, shaping a visual partnership that stretches from Brick to the Knives Out franchise. Known for his technically rigorous yet story-driven approach, Yedlin’s work spans projects including Looper, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Glass Onion.
For Wake Up Dead Man, Yedlin crafted the franchise’s darkest visual language yet, embracing Gothic textures, shifting natural light, and precisely choreographed sun-and-shadow cues to mirror the film’s tension. Through extensive prep, custom light-control software, and highly repeatable lighting systems built into the church and rectory sets, he and Johnson created an image that feels both meticulously engineered and emotionally intuitive.
Read more about Yedlin at TheASC.com and check out the shots from the film on ShotDeck now.
