Do you want to know why the ice sculptures at the Christmas Ball never melt, where galleons, Sickel and Knuts are minted and how to get a hippogriff to work with actors? All of the special touches make it feel like you have a true treasure pulled right out of the Gringott's bank vault. These are just a few of the cool behind-the-scenes stories that are told in this highly entertaining book. 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.We offer a money back guarantee if you are not fully satisfied, please contact us if you have any questions. Now, keep in mind that Heyman went after the film rights before the first book was even published, and the publisher itself (Bloomsbury in London), by no means predicted the book to be a bestseller! There are many mini interviews with cast members, directors, and others involved in the making of the films, and most of them had very interesting things to say. Harry’s acceptance letter to Hogwarts, a four-page fold out with a map of Diagon Alley (along with a creepy Borgin and Burkes catalog), an Advanced Potion Making text book with adhesive labels for your own home-brewed potions, a Quidditch World Cup Programme, an invitation to the Yule Ball, and among many other such treasures, your very own Marauder’s Map! 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an enchanting interactive experience, transporting readers to the wizarding world by sharing filmmaking secrets, unpublished photography and artwork, and exclusive stories from the stars.

All of the main characters have their own page, giving you information about the actor who plays them, how that actor was chosen for the role and, in cases such as Alastor Moody and Lord Voldemort, how they were transformed into their character. There are pretty little things stuck inside and very interesting facts to learn about the films/books there's a Hogwarts acceptance letter in there, a Yule ball invitation, and the Marauders map!

All insets and closed envelopes intact and in fine condition, Lavishly illustrated with photos, foldouts, and envelopes.

This revised edition will include additional pages about the final two film installments and also feature a large blueprint of the layout of Hogwarts and a Ministry of Magic poster warning against Death Eaters. The author of this book, Brian Sibley, is the same one who made the Lord of The Rings movie companion books. Think of it as a Harry Potter making-of extras in all of the HP movie DVDs, except they are in words (instead of in moving pictures) and more in-depth than anything I've ever seen in the DVD extras. This is a must-have book for any serious Harry Potter enthusiast, and even someone with a casual interest in the J K Rowling books or the Potter movies would find this lots of fun and highly informative.

There are all sorts of tear out and removable items: Harry’s invitation to Hogwarts, programs, product catalogue, tickets, cards, the marauder’s map, etc. Creo que ha sido la mejor compra de mi vida, ya que aparte de conocer cosas nuevas sobre las pelis, incluye merchandising maravilloso.
