It’s been quite the Harry Potter day today.
1. The final cover artwork was announced today. See the Raincoast website for details.
I am a huge fan of the Adult edition designs and the final book looks spectacular. I love the locket. I’ll have to start re-reading the series so that my brain is primed for the big day on July 21.
2. A kind-hearted reader sent along this YouTube link for my viewing pleasure. It’s puppet-threatre meets fan-fiction. I love the “ticking”. I also want to create a Monique puppet for my video reviews. What do you think? Any crafters in the audience?
Watch the video to find out what the hell I’m talking about.
3. Another kind-hearted reader, who knows I’m a Harry fan, sent over this video of the Scholastic editor unveiling the cover of the US edition on the Today show. Watch the video.
4. Scholastic also has a cool flash app creating an interactive picture of the book cover. (I think it’s done in flash, correct me if I’m wrong. I also want to learn how to do this. Anyone know?) Check out the US cover on Scholastic.
Other than that, it’s just been a hairy day.
