The interiors for the episode were filmed at The Paint Hall studio. The conclusion of the Tourney of the Hand that had begun in the previous episode continued to be filmed in Shane's Castle. Production moved to Malta to film many King's Landing exteriors: the dungeons of the Red Keep where Arya is lost while chasing cats were the dungeons of Fort St Angelo, in the Maltese town of Vittoriosa. For the CGI compositions of the Vale of Arryn, as seen in the establishing shot of the Eyrie and from the sky cells, the visual effects team used images and textures from the Greek rock formations of Meteora.

Initially they had been considering the Zhangjiajie Mountains in China, but because the landscape base plates were being shot in Ireland, using Meteora was a better option.

Maureen Ryan believed that one of the reasons the episode worked so well was because it left out the storylines with the Night's Watch and the Dothraki and focused in a single location. VanDerWerff agreed, and added that with each episode the writers got bolder in the sense that they added new scenes not included in the book to round out the source material.

The episode is dedicated "to the memory of Caroline Lois Benoist," a 26-year-old animal trainer who had been working on the production for six months, mainly training the dogs that doubled as the series' direwolves. She fell ill at her home on 18 December 2010, a few days after filming had finished, and died on 29 December from swine flu.

The scenes in the Wolfram & Hart offices were shot on location in the Thousand Oaks business complex. "They were kind enough to let us come in on a working day," Tim Minear explains, and worked while the crew was filming. The "White Room" scene was accomplished via greenscreen and split screen. The endless room in the background was computer generated, with an actual leopard on the same stage as J. August Richards. While filming, the big cat "kind of got out of its chain," says Minear. "J. thankfully didn't tell me until the shot was done and they had it back in its chain because I would have run screaming from the room like a girl."

In keeping with the transition of the series from exposition to action, each episode shows more fight scenes, and "The Wolf and the Lion" has a large number that had to be choreographed. Fight co-ordinator Buster Reeves designed all the moves and then taught the cast how to make them and give a sense of real aggression. Reeves commented on the ambush by the Hill men as one of the most difficult as he had to show many people fighting on screen at the same time making every one look original and exciting, and also noting how intimidating it could be for the actors to have 20 stuntmen running through their midst with axes and swords.
The Wolf and the Lion | Choreography
Filming for the episode occurred from July 17 to July 29, 2013. The Peru setting was filmed at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden, which has gardens dedicated to specific areas of the world, with some location shooting also occurring in Peru. The sequence in which a hole is blown in the side of the Bus was filmed in one day. The final shots utilized stunts and wirework, rigged explosives, wind machines, and green screen. Much of the Nick Fury scene was scripted, but Gregg ad-libbed the line about a proposed fish tank for the Bus.

Carroll, Atkins, Vasi, and Daddario would all become recurring guests. The final additions to the cast were Mark Sheppard as Curtis Hagen, Michael Gaston as Thompson, and Stephen Singer as Vincent. The episode was filmed on location in New York City. "One of the best things about New York is [...] all we have to do is open a door or point a camera at a window, and we've got absolutely brilliant production value," Eastin stated.
Pilot (White Collar) | Filming
Filming occurred from September 24 to October 3, 2013. Location shooting for the episode occurred in Downtown Los Angeles, the Ebell of Los Angeles, and Griffith Park. Various locations were considered for the Irish monastery, but they were suitable for the required mounting necessary for the various stunts that take place in the location, so a set was constructed. Dalton broke a bone in his hand during the filming of a fight sequence, hitting it against the hard foam prop of the Asgaridan staff. As such, the injury had to be incorporated into the next episode. The episode uses footage from the 2006 Dublin riots to portray riots in Norway.

Fury (TV series) | Introduction
Most of the episode was shot on set at the Northern Irish studios of The Paint Hall. The exteriors of the entrance of Vaes Dothrak were filmed in the Sandy Brae area, and for the confrontation between Eddard and Cersei taking place in the Red Keep's gardens (identified as a godswood in the novels) the production used the cloister of the St Dominic Monastery in Rabat, in Malta.

He explained that they had already shot Mark's last scene on location, then went back inside to do the studio shots. He revealed "The final thing I filmed was a conversation between Mark and Kyle, where they're saying goodbye.

The Wolf (TV series) | Production
"The Dragon and the Wolf" was written by the series' co-creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. In the "Inside the Episode" featurette published by HBO following the airing of the episode, they described the meeting at the dragon pit as one of the most challenging scenes in the episode to write, as they felt it was important to give each character their due. Weiss described the many different interactions between various characters as "deceptively difficult", and the necessity for the actors to be "playing off the person they're supposed to be playing off of" for the scene to be properly translated during the filming process.

Ultimately, cinematographer Sven Nykvist took a seat in front of the actors at the table and panned quickly, with von Sydow explaining, "it's very difficult to stop each pan at a moment when you have an ideal composition on each person". The ceiling-walking scene was achieved through trick photography. During production Ullmann left for Norway to give birth, and returned to shoot her last scenes wearing a pillow under her clothes.
Hour of the Wolf | Filming

See-Through | Production
According to a separate interview with "USA Today", shooting of the dragon pit scene took place over the course of six days, and was first rehearsed in Belfast, and later on set in Spain. The Italica ruins near Seville, Spain stood in for the dragon pit. Podeswa revealed that the sequence was "40 to 50 pages" in the script, which he felt was a lot of material to work with, saying he had to "make sure everything landed," and that "every look in that script and every moment that needed to be there was actually going to end up on screen." In an interview with "The Hollywood Reporter", Podeswa described filming the death of Littlefinger and Aidan Gillen's performance, saying "It was moving and difficult to see somebody get to the end of their role on the show, but it was an amazing scene to go out on.

"The Wolf and the Lion" was met with highly positive reception by the critics of the show, and many regarded it as the best episode yet. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes surveyed 21 reviews of the episode and judged 95% of them to be positive with an average score of 9.35 out of 10. The website's critical consensus reads, "With "The Wolf and the Lion," Game of Thrones tightens its grip while ratcheting up the tension through powerful writing, terrific acting, and an evocative, immersive setting."

Finn Jones makes his first appearance as Ser Loras Tyrell, the young jouster known as "The Knight of Flowers". The casting was one of the first to be announced, being confirmed by author George R. R. Martin in June 2010 after it had been leaked before the contract was to be signed. The actor had initially been considered for the role of Jon Snow when the pilot was being filmed. The new location of the court is also introduced: Scottish actress Kate Dickie was cast as the Lady of the Eyrie, Lysa Arryn, also making her first appearance in this episode.

Toby Lindala and his art department created all of the props used in the episode, including the moving tree roots and the corpse of Karin Matthews' father. Several of the shooting locations were chosen because of their proximity to large trees. Lisa's house, for instance, was next to a large willow, which was fitted with a fake tree limb twenty feet long to give it a more menacing feel. The tree limb that attacks Mulder's car was a branch from a tree that had broken off and fallen on government land. The producers secured permission from the Canadian government to retrieve the branch, and then hoisted it into the air before dropping it onto a retired police car.

He likened the set to walking into a film and thought that the set designers had produced an amazing set. The show planned to film on the Road to Nowhere between 28 April and 5 May, although filming took longer than originally thought and continued until 10 May. Stevenson explained that the stunts for episode could not be hurried and therefore, they took more time. He added that extra days were given to ensure that they had everything that they needed. Shooting for the episode took place at night, which Salt and Di Botcher (paramedic Jan Jenning actress) disliked but Stevenson enjoyed.
Episode 1094 | Filming
The episode was shot at Belfast's studio The Paint Hall, including interior shots of King's Landing, and on location throughout Northern Ireland: The scenes taking place at the grounds of Castle Black continued to be filmed at the large exterior set built on the abandoned quarry of Magheramorne, the grounds of the ruined Shane's Castle were used as the location of the tournament, and the area known as the Sandy Brae, at the foot of the Mourne Mountains, was used for the entrance to Vaes Dothrak. Much of this episode was filmed early in the production; an Eddard and Arya scene from this episode was filmed on the very first day of shooting.
Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things | Filming locations
This caused something of an issue, as the pilot had originally been shot on location in Lynn Valley in North Vancouver, British Columbia, in the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve—formerly known as the Seymour Demonstration Forest. Since production had moved from Vancouver to Los Angeles after the conclusion of the fifth season, a local California location was needed to stand in for Oregon. Consequently, when the cast and crew of the series finished filming at the Fox lot, they relocated to the Big Bear resort, located near Big Bear Lake, California, which was very evocative of Vancouver, thereby providing an "ideal backdrop" for the episode.
Requiem (The X-Files) | Casting and filming
Season one episodes were filmed in the village of Kleinburg, Ontario and the surrounding area, as well as at and around the Valley Halla Estate on the Toronto Zoo grounds. Season two was shot strictly in Toronto, Ontario. One episode from season 1 was shot at the old Markham, Ontario water tower in a story involving a mute boy who dangerously climbs the tower. Other season 1 scenes were shot at Highland Creek in Scarborough, Ontario, and at the old ski hill on Twyn Rivers Road in Pickering, Ontario.

The episode was filmed at an exterior beach location in December 2018. Moloney described filming the scenes as "horrible and beautiful all at the same time". He explained, "We went away for more than a week to shoot it all. The whole week was just horrible, but at the same time, it was nice that we got the chance to actually be in love for the last storyline." Morey revealed that they were supposed to film the scenes earlier, but bad weather halted production. She returned to film them two weeks after she had wrapped her stint on the show.
Episode 8052 | Filming
The film was shot in nine days. It used the Culver City, California set of the TV series "Hogan's Heroes". The series had already been cancelled and the show's producers let the film be made on it once they learned that a scene called for it to be burned down, thus saving them the cost of having it demolished. Because the film was shot in the United States, it could not legally qualify for the Canadian Film Development Corporation’s “Capital Gains Allowance”. Link and Dunning chose to both go uncredited in their capacities as executive producers.
Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS | Filming
The majority of the episode was filmed in a work quarry in Simi Valley and in Northridge, Los Angeles near the Mojave Desert during the day, with director of photography Feliks Parnell using a filtering effect inspired by "" to make it appear to be night time. This was seen to be more practical than night shooting in the desert, given that almost every scene takes place during the 18-year-long night on the planet. Because of this, the production struggled with the intense heat of the desert. Around 22 minutes of extra footage was shot for the episode that had to be cut, including a subplot in which Simmons loses her grandmother's necklace and Daniels finds it for her.

"The Wolf and the Lion" was written by the show creators and executive producers David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, based on the book by George R. R. Martin. The episode includes chapters 31 to 36 of the book (Eddard VII, Tyrion IV, Arya III, Eddard VIII, Catelyn VI, and Eddard IX). The adaptation to the screen has continued with the trend of including new scenes to flesh out characters that in the book are only superficially seen through the point of view characters. These include the dialectical confrontation between Littlefinger and Varys, and the conversation between King Robert and Queen Cersei, and the young lovers Renly and Loras.

The episode's viewership increased to 2.58 million for its first airing, continuing the increasing trend of the last weeks. Combined with its encore, the show was up to 3.3 million viewers for the night.

"The Dragon and the Wolf" was directed by Jeremy Podeswa. He joined the series as a director in the fifth season, his first episode being "Kill the Boy", which was followed by "Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken", for which he was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series. He further directed two more episodes in the series' sixth season, and also directed the seventh season's premiere episode, "Dragonstone". This would be Podeswa's final episode as a director for the series, as he would later reveal that he would not be returning for the series' final season. In an interview with "Variety", Podeswa described the tone in filming the scene at the dragon pit as "laden with tension," and that he was very excited to film the sequence due to several characters meeting for the first time and others reuniting after a long absence from each other.

In addition to Los Angeles, some scenes are also shot on location in New York City. In the first season, once Kevin has moved to New York, one can recognize some of its sights. In episode 7 for example, the refurbished Commodore Criterion building at the crossing of Broadway and 5th Avenue serves as the background for the scene where Kevin ends up in a fight with his brother.

Originally, the episode was slated to feature a "time-consuming" fight scene pitting Skinner against Krycek, but the scene was cut because of time-constraints and worries about going over-budget. However, Skinner's boxing match proved much "eas[ier] to stage". Mitch Pileggi had boxed competitively in college and went for "refresher course[s]" at the Goosen Gym in Los Angeles to prep for the episode. He later remarked, "It makes me happy that some people will assume there was a stunt double in the ring. There wasn't! [...] We both had a pretty good time". Location manager Ilt Jones called "S.R. 819" the "damn parking lot episode" because he was personally tasked with finding the variety of parking lots used in the episode.

Campbell stated that they were "very fortunate" to have Nighy in the role, whom he believed was someone people paid attention to, and the audience needed to pay attention to his character as he said facts which would become important later in the story. The episode was filmed on location in Trogir, Croatia, in the same production block as "The Vampires of Venice", which sees Trogir depicting 16th-century Venice.

Most of the episode was filmed in Trogir, Croatia, and many of the sets were modelled after Van Gogh paintings. The episode was watched by 6.76 million viewers on BBC One and BBC HD. Reception to the episode was mainly positive. While the amount of emotion in the episode was debated, many reviewers praised Curran's performance as Van Gogh, but thought that the Krafayis was not a sufficiently threatening "monster".
Vincent and the Doctor | Introduction
The interiors of the episode were shot at Belfast's The Paint Hall, including a new set representing the colossal Great Sept of Baelor at King's Landing. For the exteriors, the episode filmed extensively at the forests of Clandeboye Estate, where the sets of Craster's Keep and the encampment of Locke's band were built. The gardens where Olenna and Varys plot are parts of the Trsteno Arboretum, in Croatia. The scenes with Daenerys were filmed in Morocco.

And Now His Watch Is Ended | Filming
The cold open of this episode features one of the longest and most ambitious steadicam walk-and-talk scenes of the series. Over four minutes in length, it was shot on location at The Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles. Director of photography Tom Del Ruth recalls, "It started out on the dance floor, went into the lobby, through the top-floor kitchen area, down two flights of stairs into the bowels of the kitchen and through the cavernous kitchen, where food was being prepared for a banquet. We worked our way through that area, went down another flight of stairs to where the laundry facilities are, then proceeded into the catacombs, all the way through the base of the hotel and out into the parking lot, where we ended up in a motorcade.
Five Votes Down | Production notes
The interiors of the episode were filmed at the Paint Hall studios, close to Belfast. The area of the Castle Ward estate, also in Northern Ireland, was used to film on location the Stark and Lannister camps, the Crossing, and the battlefields of the Green Fork and the Whispering Woods. The climactic scene before the Great Sept of Baelor was shot at Fort Manoel, in the Maltese town of Gżira. The filming took place in the last week of October 2010.

Iceland was used to depict the far north, and the scenes from this episode (and the next one) were filmed at the glacier Svínafellsjökull in Vatnajökull National Park, close to Skaftafell. At Dubrovnik, the production used the seashore between Fort Bokar and Fort Lovrijenac to film Myrcella's departure, the Pile Gate's inner gateway for the riot scene, the inner terrace of Fort Lovrijenac for the refuge where the royal family hides from the mob, and the Rector's Palace for the atrium of the Spice King in Qarth.

Television series and films have shot exterior scenes at Portmeirion, often depicting the village as an exotic European location. Examples of this include the 1960 "Danger Man" episode "View from the Villa" starring Patrick McGoohan, the 1976 four-episode "Doctor Who" story titled "The Masque of Mandragora" set in Renaissance Italy. The Christmas 1980 and final ever episode of "Citizen Smith" entitled "Buon Natale" was filmed partly in Portmeirion. In this episode, Wolfie and Ken visit Rimini where Wolfie's girlfirend Shirley works. In 2002 some scenes were filmed there for the final episode (at the time) of the TV series "Cold Feet".
Portmeirion | Filming location
The episode was intended to be a bottle episode, meaning that it would be an episode that would be based in a single location and help save money, but bad weather plagued production, and it was one of the toughest episodes of the season for the crew. The episode was shot on location in Lynn Valley, British Columbia, in the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve, known as the Seymour Demonstration Forest. The atmosphere amongst many of the crew had grown quite tense towards the end of the shooting schedule, and it culminated in a heated argument between director Joe Napolitano and first assistant director Vladimir Steffof, after which Napolitano did not appear on location again.
Darkness Falls (The X-Files) | Production
Norberto Barba directed the episode. Since the episode was about arson, he included several shots of fires being ignited. Incidentally, all of the flames ignited during takes instead of being edited in later, an event that rarely happens in television production. Barba also included three instances where the FBI team had to walk through either their bullpen (the desks at the FBI office) or the construction site. In the case of the walks through the construction site, the filming was for dramatic effect. Barba and the crew filmed at several locations around the Los Angeles area. They filmed in the dormitories and near the campus of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and at the building behind the LA Center Studios building, the building where "Numb3rs" was usually filmed.

The cast members were made aware of an upcoming improv scene when lights on the set flashed. They rehearsed with "a skeletal storyline" in the lead up to transmission. Unlike previous episodes, which were all shot on film, the live episode was shot on videotape. A production truck was used for the shoot, with Helford explaining, "We had to coordinate our timing of the show around when this truck is available. It is like a mobile coordinating room for directing and editing. We're editing it as you are seeing it." Security on the set was increased and the episode was broadcast with a small delay in case one of the actors said an offensive word.

Episode 2 shows the inside of a hall which was filmed in Keysborough, Victoria at Haileybury College. The framed portrait photos on the wall show the past Haileybury principals however for purposes of the show, new portraits were created and put in the frames. Haileybury's logo was also modified for the show, replacing the castle with a flower as well as some other changes.

The flashback scenes featuring the day of the crash (see above 'Flashbacks' section above) were shot in a way that looked similar to the ones from the pilot episode, with the only shot from the pilot being the one where Jack requests Locke's assistance. The scenes featuring boar were originally planned to use actual, domesticated animals. Since bringing domesticated boar from continental United States was expensive, and the animals available in Hawaii did not look like wild boar and rarely moved (the script required them to run in most scenes), the producers decided to use computer-generated boar instead, along with reaction shots from the actors and first-person sequences from the animals' point of view.

Parts of the series were shot in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was co produced by John Ashley.

The episode was shot in mid-April 2019, with the scenes on the New York City streets filming on the Warner Bros. backlot. The opening shot of the episode was a homage to "Saturday Night Fever". Director Stan Brooks utilized many filming techniques from the 1970s, such as snap zooms and whip pans, to make the episode feel like a 1970s television series.

Kate Nelligan was immediately cast instead. Sharon Stone turned down the role of Laura Alden, eventually played by Michelle Pfeiffer. Filming took place in New York City, Long Island, and Los Angeles. The exteriors for Raymond Alden's country mansion were filmed at Old Westbury Gardens in Nassau County, New York. Will Randall's publishing offices are in the Bradbury Building in downtown Los Angeles, a location frequently used in movies.

According to Fabian, 20th Century Fox wanted to shoot some extra scenes and turn the episode into a feature film version for release in Europe. However he says he turned it down because "I could see it as being advertised over there as a wild kind of thing, and I didn't think it would do me any good." In later years however he said he "was praying they would make the motion picture. But because of the heat, the advertisers, and the hearings with Senator Dodd, they buried it. That would have changed my whole life. Well, it might have."
A Lion Walks Among Us | Film version
Barba and the crew also spent a day filming at a construction site in the Simi Valley. The site was selected as a visual representation of a wilderness that was about to be developed. Since filming the daytime scenes at the site went very quickly, the crew changed the location of Jake's interrogation from the FBI office to the site to use the remaining time until the filming of the night scene. Barba and the crew also built the set serving as the Eppes family's bathroom especially for the episode.

That episode was directed by John Byrne and co-starred John Sessions and Celia Imrie. Some scenes were shot at Lennoxlove House in East Lothian and others in the Scottish Borders.
Screenplay (TV series) | Background
The opening car chase was shot by crew member J.P. Finn, who was the lone producer and directed much of the second unit. It was shot at an abandoned shipyard in North Vancouver known as Versatal Shipyard. Goodwin went so far as saying that the location "was perfect" for them to shoot in; it would be reused in the third season episode "2Shy." The scene with Fox Mulder and Dana Scully visiting Doctor Berube (Ken Kramer) was a "big challenge" due to the use of monkeys; Goodwin wanted the monkeys to all act "crazy" at the same time on cue when filming.
The Erlenmeyer Flask | Filming and effects
The episode was filmed in 100-degree weather, but according to cast member B. J. Novak, they "couldn't look hot". The area outside the building was shot in Van Nuys, California in what Novak called a "bad area": he later noted that they "had to pretend we weren't scared, even though every car that is left next to our set overnight is stripped to the bone for parts." Greg Daniels noted that during the filming of "The Fire", the cast and crew kept being interrupted by the sound of helicopters. The firemen in the scene were played by actual firemen. The crew of "The Office" had someone in Scranton take photographs of local firefighters' uniforms, so the costumes would be accurate.
The Fire (The Office) | Production
The show premiered on September 21, 2010. The show was canceled mid-season due to low ratings, after producing just thirteen episodes. The last four episodes of the series were shown on FX in late April and May 2011. The show was shot at Sands Point Preserve, Long Island, New York. Keri Russell commuted from her home in Brooklyn, about 25 miles away, and Will Arnett commuted from his home in Manhattan.

Running Wilde | Background
Shooting for the episode, which is set in Lima, Ohio, began on August 23, 2013, in parallel with the previous episode—the second of two Beatles tribute episodes—which had started shooting earlier in the month and continued into the following week with scenes featuring new recurring cast member Demi Lovato. The episode is written by all three of the show's creators—Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan—and directed by Falchuk. Murphy said that "almost everything in that episode is from the first take of every performance because the actors and the crew had a really hard time shooting it." He added, "I've never seen a crew that you can't continue shooting because they've left the room sobbing." Many cast members called to request that they be included in the episode although they weren't under contract to do so, including Iqbal Theba, who plays Figgins on the show, and appears in the episode.

In Season 1, Episode 3, during the search for The Holy Lance, the team claims to have gone to Area 51 before deciding they could not gain entry and ultimately abandoning the search. However, it has been pointed out that the unoccupied guard house that Ashley and Kinga are filmed in front of is not the entrance to Area 51 and that they, in fact, fabricated the shot from another location.
Legend Quest | Fabrication of shots/locations
The episode was filmed at the Cinecittà studios in Rome in September 2007. The filming reused some of the sets from the show "Rome". Other locations suggested were in Malta and Wales, but the size of the project, the biggest since the show's revival, resulted in production taking place in Italy. This was the first time the larger part of an episode was filmed abroad and the first time the cast had filmed abroad since 1996; the television movie was filmed in Vancouver and pick-up shots had previously been made in New York City for "Daleks in Manhattan". Cinecittà had accepted the BBC's request in order to promote the studios, despite the show's small budget.
The Fires of Pompeii | Filming
New York outdoor scenes for the episode were filmed in California. Two taxi cabs along with Michael's limo, using New York plates, were shot in front of a California intersection with a Roman Revival style building in the background for a New York effect. The building has both a California state flag and US flag hanging over its entrance. The cold opening for the episode deals with Dwight and his fictional Earth Day super hero "Recyclops". During Jim's narrative, he discusses the history of Recyclops, and a montage of Dwight harassing past receptionists was shown. The receptionists that Dwight harasses include: Pam, who is accompanied by Jim, circa 2006; Ryan; Ronni (Dale Raoul), who was introduced during the fifth season episode "Weight Loss"; and Erin.
Shareholder Meeting | Production
In "Stock Car Races," when Hal and the boys are entering a race track, the billboard behind the entrance displays the place as Irwindale Speedway, a real race track in Southern California. The last episode in the first season ("Water Park") was filmed at a water park called Wild Rivers (now closed as of 2011) located in Irvine, California. Though palm trees and desert scenery are seen in shots of the local region and town throughout the show, indicating a location in the Western United States, it is never revealed which state the show is set in (except for Francis' whereabouts in early seasons, such as his military school in Alabama and his job in Alaska).
Malcolm in the Middle | Filming
Scenes were filmed aboard the "Fox", which was anchored off Balboa in Orange County.
The Sea Lion | Production
The film was shot at Ardmore Studios in Bray, County Wicklow, Ireland, and on location in Ireland, Wales (Marloes Sands), and in France at Abbaye de Montmajour, Arles, Château de Tarascon, Tarascon and Tavasson, Saône-et-Loire. The sculpted stone figures appearing during the main title music were a lucky, unexpected find by the director while shooting scenes in France. They were filmed along the artist's driveway and later edited to create the title sequence where they appear to be on interior walls of the castle.
The Lion in Winter (1968 film) | Filming
Principal photography lasted from mid-May through late-June in Los Angeles in 2015.
Wolves at the Door | Filming
The episode literalizes the issue of teen bullying and pack behavior. Giles suggests that such behaviors are a normal part of growing up until Buffy connects Xander's behavior to the hyenas at the zoo. "The Pack" also sees the demise of Principal Flutie, who is replaced by Principal Snyder in "The Puppet Show". All sequences shot at the zoo were filmed at the Santa Ana Zoo in California. One line that was cut was Xander saying "Welcome to the jungle." The scenes of Willow watching hyenas on the computer in the library contains very little hyena footage; most of clips are of African wild dogs.
The Pack (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) | Production
Principal photography for the first season took place in Ridgewood, Queens, New York in 2018.
It's Bruno! | Filming
Most of the episode was shot in the sets built in The Paint Hall studios in Belfast. Also in Northern Ireland, the Pollnagollum cave in Belmore Forest was used to film parts of the hideout of the Brotherhood, and the gardens of Gosford Castle served as the Riverrun exteriors where Lord Karstark was beheaded. The scenes with Daenerys were filmed in Morocco, and the ones with Jon in Iceland. The Wildlings camp was built by the shores of lake Mývatn, with its distinctive vertical lava formations clearly seen. The nearby grotto where Jon and Ygritte have sex is cave Grjótagjá; however, the cave was used mainly for establishing shot of Jon Snow and Ygritte in the cave, and most of this scene was filmed in the studio.
Kissed by Fire | Filming locations
Schur served as director for the episode, making this his fourth directing credit for the show. The scenes for the door were shot in a grove of coastal redwoods near San Francisco. The door, composed of a set of branches shaped into an arch, was left over from a wedding and was simply touched up by the crew. Other scenes were shot on location in Athens and Paris over the course of seven days. The crew was able to film at the Parthenon at sunrise, which Kristen Bell described as a "breathtaking" and "humbling" experience. A separate neighborhood used for filming in Athens was specifically chosen for its resemblance to the show's original neighborhood.
Whenever You're Ready (The Good Place) | Filming
A Radisson Edwardian Hotel in the London Docklands served as the filming location for the Summit Hotel; the management of the hotel were cooperative and allowed the filming crew access to several rooms and facilities. The scene where Ruth meets Heng was filmed at Dollis Hill; it was the last scene of the episode to be shot, and was completed in one afternoon. In the fight scene between Ros and Sarah at Lindemann's office, Hermione Norris played herself, and a stunt double stood in for Genevieve O'Reilly, because her character was getting "thrown about a lot". The fight scene between Lucas and Sarah's assassin were performed by Armitage and stunt coordinator Crispin Layfield respectively.
Series 8, Episode 8 (Spooks) | Filming
They don't even fully understand what it's all about and what the consequences of it are. They really can't stop themselves. It's almost destiny that's bringing them together." In regards to the similarity between the appearance of Rhaegar and Viserys Targaryen, Podeswa stated that the brothers were meant to look similar. Podeswa's first reaction to the final scene of the episode, with the destruction of a portion of the Wall, was "This is an enormous, spectacular sequence. How are we actually going to pull it off?" In order to piece together the sequence, Podeswa was required to work with several different departments, including Benioff and Weiss, the visual effects department, storyboard artist, the set designers, stuntmen, the cinematographer, and the actors themselves.

Wolfblood | Production
On the episode's commentary, Patrick revealed that he was "nervous" for the shooting of the episode, since he was a big fan of "The X-Files" before becoming a part of its cast. Before shooting the episode, Carter reminded Patrick various times that he had to be in "good shape". The majority of the episode—like the rest of seasons six, seven, eight and nine—was filmed in and around the Los Angeles, California, area. The ending of the episode, as well as a majority of its follow-up "Without" were filmed at Split Mountain in Anza-Borrego State Park. According to producer Paul Rabwin, an "incredible heat wave" hit the area during the shooting, resulting in terrible filming conditions.
Within (The X-Files) | Writing and filming
Both Emily VanDerWerff and David Sims, from the A.V. Club, rated the episode an "A." Reviewers agreed that after four episodes presenting the setting and introducing the main characters, the story started to move forward faster and raise the stakes. David Sims considered it "the point at which all of the scheming and conversing and table-setting began to lumber forward and gain some real momentum." James Poniewozik wrote for "Time" that the episode "began to let the swords do the talking," and "while there were some very significant scenes of talk, the dialogue went beyond Westeros History 101 to take the story in some very interesting directions." IGN's Matt Fowler wrote that this was "the best episode of the series so far" even though fan-favorite characters like Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen did not appear.
The Wolf and the Lion | Critical response
Kate Flannery did not actually shave her head for the episode. According to her Twitter account, make-up artist Ed French was responsible for the bald cap and Kim M. Ferry designed the shaved hair effect. According to the actress, the prosthetics took three hours to apply. Afterwards, she joked that she has "newfound respect for the actors in "Planet of the Apes"!" The scenes at the end of the episode take place at The Bog; this is an actual bar in Scranton. In addition, the exterior shots were all actually filmed in Scranton. In order to secure permission, the series' production staff phoned the bar's co-owner, Brian Craig, and requested that the bar be featured on the show.
Lice (The Office) | Production
The episode was directed by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. During filming of the Dragonpit scene in Seville, Spain, actors Vladimir Furdik (The Night King), Faye Marsay (The Waif), Tom Wlaschiha (Jaqen H'ghar), and Kit Harington (Jon Snow) were brought by HBO to the city as decoys to hide plot points. In the same scene, two plastic water bottles were spotted by the audience behind John Bradley and Liam Cunningham's feet.
The Iron Throne (Game of Thrones) | Filming
The icy caverns featured in the episode were constructed inside a warehouse which had previously been used for cold storage; and required the use of truckloads of lumber and of Styrofoam. The set would become one of the most expensive and elaborate built during the series' history. The set required a constant temperature of in order to maintain the real snow and ice used to decorate it. This refrigeration allowed the actors' breath to visibly fog up, and allowed the cast to "have a place that feels real" to aid their acting. The outdoor scenes were filmed around Vancouver's Mount Seymour, with weather conditions making shooting difficult enough to require an extra day of work.
Gethsemane (The X-Files) | Production
The title of the episode refers to the fact that the Starks, whose sigil is a wolf, may soon be at war with the Lannisters, whose sigil is the lion. With this episode the season hits its halfway mark and the action picks up considerably. Despite being a topic of discussion at King's Landing, Daenerys and Jorah Mormont do not themselves appear in this episode. Jon Snow and all characters on the Wall are also absent, and Robb Stark does not appear in Winterfell scenes. Accordingly, Emilia Clarke, Iain Glen, Harry Lloyd, Richard Madden and Kit Harington all have their names omitted from the opening titles.

What Would You Do? (season 16) | Filming
The episode was filmed sometime during Summer 2008. Miller wanted to style the filming as if the cameras are following the team like in a documentary. The first day was spent in the "Ottawa Bravo" safe house set, where Connie reveals the threat. Throughout the shoot, Gemma Jones had hip problems. Concerned, the producers set up a body double on hand. However, Jones insisted she could do everything herself, and in the end the double was not used. During the first shootout scene in the episode, Miller wanted to make the sequence as real as possible by having the camera film as if it was under attack.

I Bet You | Setting
The episode "opens with a shot-for-shot remake of the title sequence from the 1962 film adaptation of "To Kill a Mockingbird"." It was shot on location in the Catskill mountains. Costume director Donna Zakowska selected bright colors and floral patterns for Midge's vacation wardrobe to signify the character's moving forward, and the changing of seasons.

On the Season Three DVD Commentary, Thomas remarks on his experience directing "Spit & Eggs" and shares his thoughts on several scenes of the episode. He called the scene in which Mercer attacks Veronica the one he was "happiest with for any number of reasons." The scene was shot with 27 camera angles, the most for any "Veronica Mars" episode, and it took 10 or 11 hours to film. The scene also features a number of fake unicorns in various forms; unicorns were an in-joke among the cast and crew after one season 2 script involved Veronica calling a store "Unicornicopia." While directing the scene, Thomas wanted to find an unusual weapon to be used, and "a unicorn struck [him] as funny." The scene in which Moe removes the unicorn horn from Mercer's leg was initially intended to be Moe bandaging Mercer, but Thomas thought that the final product would be more "interesting" while preparing for the scene.
Spit &amp; Eggs | Writing and directing
Several locations that were scouted for the episode proved difficult to use. Two churches that had been selected for the episode rescinded filming permission just before production commenced, requiring the location scouts to find replacements as quickly as they could. The scenes in the woods were filmed at Griffith Park in Los Angeles because of its many pine trees. Due to the fact that the actual park is rather sparsely populated by brush, the foliage was all created by the crew of the series. Manners shot several of the forest scenes with a 200 millimeter lens to obscure the lights of Los Angeles in the distance.
Milagro (The X-Files) | Filming and effects
Similar to its preceding episode, "Bloodletting", principal photography for "Save the Last One" commenced in Newnan, Georgia at Newnan High School in July 2011, after receiving approval from the city council and the Coweta County School System. Site preparation initiated on July 1, and filming began at the gymnasium of the school over a period of four days from July 7–8 and again from July 11–12. The location was temporarily renovated to mirror an abandoned Federal Emergency Management Agency camp. Michael Riley, the production manager for the episode, contacted the Newnan Police Department to collaborate with producers. Because of the large size of the filming location, Riley's production company notified surrounding neighborhoods to ease inconvenience.
Save the Last One | Production
The episode was directed by Miguel Sapochnik. This was his final episode of the series. For the filming of the episode, the city of Dubrovnik (the stand-in for King's Landing) was recreated on the backlot of their Belfast set. Filming Varys's death scene ultimately ended up taking seven months as rain kept postponing the shoot. In a promotional photo of the scene in which Jaime and Cersei embrace at the Red Keep, his right hand is visible instead of the metallic prosthetic the character received in season 4. In the actual episode, only the metallic hand is seen. The error in the image garnered attention in light of the previous episode's coffee cup mistake.
The Bells (Game of Thrones) | Filming
Most of the scenarios presented in the season were filmed in New Jersey and New York. Additionally, the "Kid Driver" scenario from the premiere episode was filmed in Greenwich, Connecticut, while the "Sloppy Spring Breaker" scenario from episode 13 was filmed in South Padre Island, Texas.
