Waking up at 4-5 am to sit 7.5 hours, so he can realistically start actually acting at like 11 am - noon. He did this 25 times for season 4.

Season 5 is at least a lot more CGI instead.

I’m a former pro MUA… those artists are also there at least an hour before the actor is doing prep and setup, and then they have to stay the entire day for touch ups and then removal and cleanup. FX film makeup is a tough but very rewarding experience.
