Know more about Props in Harry Potter™ StudioHarry's clothing wasn't trendy, but they are popular nonetheless. You can find his and the other characters' authentic and original Harry Potter costumes inside the Studios. The collection of Quidditch uniforms is striking, as it shows the evolution of the Harry Potter movies. Each movie's uniforms became more detailed, sporty, and reflective of the dangerous game. For the Yule Ball scene in the fourth film, costume designer Jany Temime designed over 300 costumes, and over 600 Hogwarts school robes, most of which can be found in the Harry Potter studio tour.
Know More About Costumes In Harry Potter™ StudioSVX and VFX were the extra sprinkle of 'magic' that made the movies what they are today. Whomping Willow provided the first taste of the talent working in the visual and special effects team. For Willow's appearance in the Prisoner of Azkaban, a full-sized tree trunk was built on set. Branches were later added digitally in post-production. Harry's Cloak of Invisibility and the Chamber of Secrets Door are the other souvenirs on the special and visual effects tour.
Know more about Harry Potter special effectsHarry Potter had it all: dragons, goblins, basilisks, giant spiders, and whatnot! You can witness these creatures inside the Warner Bros Harry Potter™ Studios if you're brave enough. You'll also find Buckbeak, the hippogriff who helped Harry in The Prisoner of Azkaban. Buckbeak's designers took inspiration from real birds, especially the Golden Eagle. Find out about the Basilisk that almost killed Harry in the Chamber of Secrets. That too has an interesting process behind its creation.

Hogwarts was their most outstanding achievement as it moves people even today. The castle stayed as is largely throughout the eight movies, a testament to the work of the 86 artists and crewmembers who designed it for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. The Art Department also did newspaper designs with specifically the graphic design duo MinaLima. They're all on display inside the Harry Potter studio.
