Magical Moments: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

In this scene, Harry admires the fascinating clock that monitors the precise whereabouts of each member of the Weasley after being warmly welcomed into their magical home. Created to reflect the eccentric interior of The Burrow, MinaLima designed the Weasley Family Clock as though it was made from repurposed objects, including personalised scissor blades for clock hands. The frame surrounding the illustration takes inspiration from the Chamber of Secrets and the statue of Salazar Slytherin, featuring iconic graphic props designed by MinaLima for the Weasley's kitchen including cereal boxes for Cheeri-Owls and Pixie-Puffs.

In this scene, Harry and Ron fly straight towards the thrashing branches of the Whomping Willow in Mr Weasley's enchanted car. The frame surrounding the illustration takes inspiration from the Chamber of Secrets and the statue of Salazar Slytherin, featuring moments from the daring flight that comes to a dramatic end. As the station clock strikes eleven for the Hogwarts Express departure, the reckless friends soar over the rooftops of London and beyond to reach the wizarding school by any means possible.

In this scene, mortified in front of his classmates, Ron cowers as the Howler from Mrs Weasley scolds him for recklessly stealing his father's enchanted car. To help craft this iconic moment for screen, MinaLima designed the opened Howler to resemble a cavernous mouth and teeth, using origami techniques to craft its distinctive shape. The frame surrounding the illustration takes inspiration from the Chamber of Secrets and the statue of Salazar Slytherin, featuring iconic graphic props designed by MinaLima for the Hogwarts students including Ron's exercise book and Gilderoy Lockhart's 'Magical Me'.

In this scene, Harry learns that his compassion and valour are what brought the sword, a symbol of a 'true Gryffindor', to his aid in the Chamber of Secrets. The frame surrounding the illustration takes inspiration from the Chamber of Secrets and the statue of Salazar Slytherin, featuring the iconic graphic prop designed by MinaLima, Tom Riddle's Diary, which Harry uses to conceal his sock and free Dobby the House-Elf from the cruel ownership of Lucius Malfoy. Fawkes the phoenix and the Sorting Hat watch on from their perches in Dumbledore’s office, both of which were instrumental in bringing the Sword of Gryffindor to Harry, allowing him to ultimately defeat the petrifying basilisk and the apparition of Voldemort’s younger self.
