“The through-the-helmet shot was very important for us, because we wanted as much as possible to stay, as we always have been, in Dunk’s POV,” showrunner Ira Parker told Polygon at a press day. “Things change for you very drastically when you put on a helmet, when you put on 60 pounds of metal armor, when you have to do this on a horse, when you have to do it with your peripheral vision knocked down to nothing, when all of a sudden, your breathing is close to you inside of this [armor]. Your heart is racing because you’re so nervous, so you can’t catch your breath.”
