Book Description
The beautifully illustrated official tie-in to the magical Harry Potter films.
Product Description
Immerse yourself in the world of the spectacular Harry Potter film series, and learn why Yule Ball ice sculptures never melt, where Galleons, Sickles and Knuts are really "minted", how to get a Hippogriff to work with actors, about the inspiration behind Hogwarts castle, and why Dementors move the way they do.
Written and designed in collaboration with the cast and crew that brought J.K Rowling's celebrated novels to the silver screen, Harry Potter: Film Wizardry delivers an enchanting interactive experience, transporting readers to the wizarding world by sharing filmmaking secrets, unpublished photography and artwork, and exclusive stories from the stars. Full of removable, facsimile reproductions of props and paper ephemera from the movies, this collectible volume offers a privileged look at the Harry Potter films and the talented group of Muggles that has made true movie magic.

I had no idea what to expect from this book when I first ordered. I knew that it would give me info on the films but what I got when I opened my book this afternoon was beyond anything that I could have ever imagined. As a huge Harry Potter fan who has amassed other Harry Potter collectibles, this book probably tops the lot. Not only does it provide in-depth look at the first 6 films and a more than 'sneak peek' at the final instalments, it also gives readers the chance to own replica copies of props that are used in the film from the marauders map to the quidditch world cup program. Warner Brothers have out done themselves and proved without doubt that they were the right company to have the rights to the Harry Potter films.
For any Harry Potter fan who's childhood has been shaped by the Harry Potter books and films this book is a must buy. For me it already seems as important on my bookshelf as the Harry Potter books themselves.

As a huge harry potter fan i got very excited about this product, though worried at first it may seem like one of the boring uninformative fan made books that we come across. how very wrong my worries were!!
the book is brilliant for any muggle fan. the book contains everything & anything a harry potter fan could want to know... & more. the interviews, backstage information & little quirks such as copies of harrys letter from hogwarts or a copy of advanced potion making make entertaining little thrills that really make the reader feel involved & right there with all the magic.
could hardly put it down & i would reccommend for any true fan.
5 star rating? you bet, if there was a 6th star i would give it! :)

There still isn't any Harry Potter art books, but this movie companion is probably the best thing any fan could wish for.
Harry Potter Wizardry is 160-page hardcover and designed like a scrapbook with little goodies -- booklets, stickers, maps, etc - attached to the pages. The cover is also nicely embossed. It's printed by publisher Collins Design.
The book covers all the seven films, including a sneak at at Deathly Hallows Part 2. It's packed with all sorts of interesting things from the Harry Potter movies. There are chapters on characters, the schools, mythical creatures, strange locations and stories about the wizardry world. You can read about all the teachers Harry had, the different villains from each movies, Ministry of Magic or all the strange inventions created by Ron's twin brothers.
There are plenty of photos shot behind the scenes showing the sets, the miniatures and models, actors and there are even some pieces of artwork and sketches.
The commentary provided includes interviews with the actors and staff. They talk about everything from creating sets like the Hogwarts castle to how they film the movie with computer graphics elements. I'm impressed with how much content is included.
This is the book Harry Potter fans have been waiting for. Grab it.
