A review by helenephoebe
Harry Potter Page to Screen: The Complete Filmmaking Journey by Bob McCabe
5.0
ISBN? - 9780857687753
General Subject/s? - Harry Potter / Film / Media / Fantasy
Title? - This is a very comprehensive look at the process of bringing Harry Potter from the book to the film.
General Analysis? - This is a really comprehensive look at the world of Harry Potter, from the scripts and casting right up until the editing process. The way it looks at costume, setting and props in more detail adds something to the world we all know and gives you something new to look out for in the films. There are quite a few books that cover the world of Harry Potter, but this is by far the best one. What lets it down for me is the fact that it's American. The spelling drove me crazy, but that's only a small thing. What I really hope we see in the future is a book by the makers of the films on their experiences.
Recommend? - YES!
