Rowling's wizarding world to the big screen. Step off Platform Nine and Three Quarters and into the hidden world behind the scenes of the Harry Potter film series. Brian Sibley is the author of other bestselling behind-the-screen books, like The Lord of the Rings: The Making of the Movie Trilogy and The Land of Narnia . The book includes Producer's Diaries from the Harry Potter films' executive producer David Heyman. Review: Absolutely Spiffing Good Fun! - The 5 star reviews are spot on for this terrific addition to the Harry Potter world. I finally got a chance to see it in person last night and I will be ordering one for myself and another to give as a gift to my brother, who I think will appreciate it even more than I do. He & I were fortunate enough to visit the Harry Potter exhibit in Chicago last fall and, by choosing to go right after Illinois kids went back to school, we missed the crowds and were able to savor each costume, set and prop. (My favorite? The huge winged statue from the graveyard scene at the end of Goblet of Fire.) I even got to sit under the sorting hat! (Ravenclaw) Of course, there's a difference between seeing actual sets and props and in perusing pictures of them, but the creative minds responsible for putting this book together have done a fantastic job of making that difference as small as possible. The layout is exciting, the image quality (mostly) top notch and the extras - a Marauder's Map, a program from the Quidditch World Cup and another from the Yule Ball, among many, many others - are, IMHO, worth far more than the cover price on their own. (I was very tempted by the $35 Noble Marauder's Map when visiting the exhibit in Chicago, but chose to buy a nice replica of Harry's wand instead. Needless to say, I'm thrilled to get a Marauder's Map with this book even though I have to admit it's not quite as nice or as large as the one I passed up.) While I understand the temptation felt by some of the other reviewers to do so, I'm not in the least inclined to tear this book apart to decorate or for any other reason. Instead, I'm incredibly pleased to have all this great info and these pieces of memorabilia all together in one attractive and high-quality volume. This is a book to pull out often and to pore over slowly, enjoying each tidbit, the remembrances and comments from the actors, the details on costumes and sets and make-up. The scrapbook look and style suit it perfectly and I'm so glad to have it and grateful that so much care was taken in its creation. Very highly recommended. Question: Does anyone have information on the Harry Potter encyclopedia thingy J.K. Rowling has mentioned compiling for publication? I haven't heard anything for awhile and am wondering if it's going forward. Seeing the pictures of Dolores Umbridge in this book last night reminded me of how much I detested her and I was hoping Rowling would let us know that Umbridge met some terrible end or, better yet, suffered deeply for her repulsive behavior. Not that I'm bloodthirsty or anything... Okayfine, maybe I'm a *little* bloodthirsty. Review: Potterific! - I actually purchased Harry Potter Page to Screen: The Complete Filmmaking Journey before deciding to purchase this as well. The reason was that I did not realize this title was published (for some reason it slipped my HP radar), and it was only after I had perused the delights of page to screen that I realized this title was available as well. Initially, I wasn't sure how this would compare to Page to Screen since that is quite a hefty volume devoted to almost every conceivable detail regarding the HP movie franchise. The deciding factor for me was the fact that Film Wizardry also contained many inserts, pull-out books, pamphlets etc. that make for an interactive and engaging reading experience. I'd say both books are complementary. While Page to Screen provides more details on the movie-making process and covers just about everything (I say just about as there are some things not covered), Film Wizardry provides more of an overview with many fun elements thrown in for devoted fans such as the various foldouts and inserts. For example, in HP Film Wizardry, readers will get a chance to peruse a copy of the Marauder's Map, Harry's acceptance letter to Hogwarts, a catalogue from Borgin and Burke's, stickers in the Advanced Potion-Making pamphlet, two boxes of treats (sans the treats) from Honeydukes of Hogsmeade (you can tear them out and fold them into actual treat boxes, not that I would!), a Quidditch World Cup Programme, a copy of the Yule Ball Programme, Educational Decree No. 29, a product catalogue of Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, and a Ministry of Magic ID card. Such goodies are not to be found in Page to Screen, so I'd definitely recommend getting both books. Since I've had both books, I've been reading both in tandem, and comparing notes. It is such a wonderful, rewarding experience to read all the details that went into making the HP movies. After visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter last fall (I'd recommend that experience for all Potter fans, at least once), I've been missing that wonderful experience, but these two books certainly make up for it as I can relive the world of the HP movies anytime I feel like it! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,002,338 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #651 in Science Fiction & Fantasy Movies #707 in Textile & Costume (Books) #981 in Art of Film & Video | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 473 Reviews | ## Images ![Harry Potter Film Wizardry - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/A1I0PRqacSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Spiffing Good Fun! *by M***E on October 27, 2010* The 5 star reviews are spot on for this terrific addition to the Harry Potter world.

So when I saw "Harry Potter Film Wizardry" on my Amazon's recommended future releases list last month, I went, "Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!" and now that I have the book in my hands, I say, "Finally!" This is the book that the Harry Potter films deserve and the one movie lovers have waited for. "Harry Potter Film Wizardry" covers the first six films and the first part of the Deathly Hallows. The behind-the scenes information and material contained in the book is probably a fraction of what seven films would generate, but Brian Sibley and the cast and crew managed to pick the most representative items from and the most memorable moments of each movie and filled the pages with photographs, sketches, storyboards, concept art and scenes from the films. This book is not only a delight to look at but also to touch. There is the letter addressed to "H. Potter, The Cupboard under the Stairs" to pull out from its envelope; Honeydukes candy boxes to punch out and assemble; the Yule Ball and the Quidditch World Cup programmes to admire, Proclamations to decorate your walls; the detailed Marauder's Map is ready for you to unfold, and there are a Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes product catalogue and the much more sinister Borgin and Burkes catalogue to pore over. These are, of course, clever and fun ways to present some of the props and ephemera created for the movies. "Harry Potter Film Wizardry" will keep any fan of the HP films happily reading (and admiring the pictures) for hours. It belongs on the shelf of anybody who enjoys the magic of the movies. As for me, this book is a wish come true. ## Frequently Bought Together - Harry Potter Film Wizardry - Harry Potter Film Wizardry: Updated Edition: From the Creative Team Behind the Celebrated Movie Series - The Magic of MinaLima: Celebrating the Graphic Design Studio Behind the Harry Potter & Fantastic Beasts Films --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1224177-harry-potter-film-wizardry](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1224177-harry-potter-film-wizardry) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
