Emma discusses how different the scenery is compared to having shot the first six installments primarily at Hogwarts; Dan explains how much Harry has grown mentally and physically, to the point where he has become wary of his best friends. Quote:
Emma Watson noted, "It was so nice to be outside, in the forest and out of the studio - running about. It was so much fun. Because it’s such an emotional, heavy film, it was nice to get out and do some action stuff.
"They were very fun scenes to film. Being out of Hogwarts just makes it really different. It just gives the audience a whole different experience. I’m so excited to see it together."

Watson adds, "It's challenging in every way - physically, emotionally. They’re away from home. They’re isolated, they don’t have any news. They don’t know what they’re doing. They’re pulling at shreds. Dumbledore had hardly left them anything to go on."

And Radcliffe concedes that shooting the two parts of Deathly Hallows out of sequence has its confusing moments.
"It’s been odd trying to keep track of it all. I’ve forgotten stuff we’ve done. It’s been a weird experience."
Of course, this being a Harry Potter film, it’s not all fun and light. Especially not for the teen wizard.
“Harry is like a Roman Emperor in his last days and everyone is turning on him," moaned Radcliffe. "Harry is completely paranoid about what Ron and Hermione are saying about him. He thinks they’re doubting his leadership, but while he is asking people that, he himself is doubting his leadership. He has no plan, so he is pretty useless."
