With big productions, you can sometimes get lost with the terminology and all the different departments.
With 'Game of Thrones' you're not really dealing with anything that is based in reality. You have dragons and magic and all of that.
With 'Honeymoon,' it was so intimate, and we literally shot it in something like 20, 24 days. Everything was very rapid and very fast, and so all of us submerged into the deep end and only really came up for air once we had wrapped.
