Introduction -- At Hogwarts -- The Sorcerer's Stone -- The Triwizard Tournament -- Brooms -- Food and Drink -- Publications -- Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes -- Wizard Inventions -- Horcruxes and Hallows -- Conclusion

Throughout the making of the eight Harry Potter movies, designers and craftspeople were tasked with creating fabulous chocolate-fantasy feasts, flying brooms, enchanted maps, and much more, in addition to numerous magical items necessary in a wizard everyday life-- for example, newspapers with moving photos, vicious textbooks, and Howlers. Harry Potter: The Artifact Vault chronicles the work of the graphics department in creating vibrant and imaginative labels for potions bottles, brooms, and candy; the creation of Quidditch Quaffles, Bludgers, and Golden Snitches, lovingly crafted by the prop making team; and the stunning inventiveness used by the entire crew to create a rich, bewitched filmic universe
