WATCH: HBO releases behind-the-scenes footage of GOT season 6
The Game of Thrones TV franchise took a lot of time and hard work to make, and the studio behind it has released a clip on the creation of its epic season 6.
With fans still feeling a massive GOT hangover after the latest season ended last June, HBO released a glimpse behind the struggle it takes to create TV’s hottest fantasy drama.
The 27-minute video was exclusively available on HBO Now and On Demand, but has now been released on video-sharing site YouTube.
The clip takes viewers through the three filming units—Wolf (House Stark arc), Dragon (King’s Landing arc) and White Walker (The Wall arc), at Belfast, Ireland’s Paint Hall in Titanic Studios.
Intricate details are highlighted including the show’s filming process, right from the hair and makeup to the props and workshops, and the cameras rolling on important moments of last season’s 10 magnificent episodes.
