Universal Orlando has released yet another new video from inside the Wizardig World of Harry Potter attraction. In this clip, which can be viewed here, goes through the massive design and construction effort to make the theme park at Universal Orlando Resorts resemble the world seen in the Harry Potter films. Actors Emma Watson Dan Radcliffe speak to the development of the park, while production designer Stuart Craig and producers David Heyman and David Barron discuss the the creation of making the theme park feel as if one enters Harry's world.

Heading over to Universal on Saturday. My sister’s work is having a company picnic there. I am going to pick up my Florida residence pass so I will be ready to go over and over again. I knew living in this hideous state would pay off one day :)

In the video, Stuart Craig talks about the attention to detail. Stuart, I am sorry to report that you missed one regarding the Hogwarts Express.

As a minor Steam Locomotive Buff, I must tell you that the Whistle on steam locomotives is never down the smokestack! It is mounted on top of the boiler and when the whistle blows, the spent steam does not blow out the smokestack!

I’m sure you will want to correct that!

Oh it looks great. I really want to go but why does it have to be so far away? I probably won’t get a chance to go as it will be so expensive to visit from the UK. I’m a poor student!
