Making Harry Potter from books into movies was harder than it looked. The films' graphics team, MinaLima, was responsible for bringing all the magic to life. Here are some of the crazy things they were responsible for:

1. All the ads in the Daily Prophet were made to look like a real newspaper.

2. The Daily Prophet took two weeks to make one-edition.

There were 30 editions.

3. Check out how it animates.

4. The writing on Marauder's Map was hand drawn.

5. They even created this magic perfume ad.

Naming it was the hardest task.

6. Needless to say the graphics were amazing.

7. And a lot of things in the movies weren't actually created by J.K. Rowling.

She never gave a lot of detail, so the graphics team really had to dig deep into their imagination. The result: amazing:
