Another great feature of the show is the cinematography. Each episode is beautifully shot, with a mix of sweeping wide shots and intimate close-ups that draw the viewer into the world of the show. The use of camera tricks and special effects is also impressive, with the show making great use of slow motion and freeze-frame to highlight key moments.
