But to shoot the Iowa scenes, Rannells said they didn't have to travel to the Midwest, but just to another borough in New York City.
\"We got to go to lovely Ditmas Park which can look like Iowa, actually,\" he said. \"It's a crazy neighborhood in Brooklyn ... it doesn't look like New York at all ... HBO did reach out to University of Iowa, they were not so keen on having big film crews come and disrupt their campus. I can't blame them.\"

Rannells spoke to ABC as part of a collaboration he did a few weeks back with Canon, where for one day in New York as part of the #BringIt tour, he traveled to various iconic NYC spots like the Walter Kerr Theater and took pictures with members of the media.
Rannells said at a young age he used cameras like DSLRs, but that as he got older, the cell phone really took over. He still thinks the quality of a DSLR is better and great for special occasions.

\"Holidays were great time to try this out, use a real camera and get back into that habit, no offense to the cell phones,\" he added.
He and others were able to upload their photos using the hashtag #BringIt.
