This past Sunday was life changing for many of the GLSers. It was the day that our childhood came to life, and we were able to walk where some of the most influential actors have walked and worked. Yes, we went to Warner Bros. Studios: The Making of Harry Potter.
It's just a tube and a train ride away, so we left our flats around 11 and got there a little after noon. During the tour, we saw the original sets and props that were used in the films. One very interesting thing that I learned is that Hogwarts is definitely not as big as I imagined. This whole time, I thought Hogwarts was a huge castle out in the middle of nowhere that the Harry Potter crew had to put together, but really its a smaller castle that fits in a large room and the team films it and uses a green screen to create background. Although the studio tour was really, really cool, it took some of the magic of the movies and books away from me. No worries though, I'm re-watching all the movies to get the magic back. I'll be in the big castle called Hogwarts in my mind, and that's all that counts.
