[Experience report] Pierre Bohana's Premium Tour and Workshop was amazing! Harry Potter Studio Tour Tokyo, January 2024

Hello, this is Pancake Man from 魔法界ドットコム. I have just experienced the special event with Pierre Bohana of the Harry Potter Studio Tour Tokyo, which was announced the day before yesterday, 20 January (Saturday), and I would like to bring you a quick update.

Warner Bros Studio Tour Tokyo - Making of Harry Potter Premium Tour

The "Warner Bros Studio Tour Tokyo - Making of Harry Potter Premium Tour" in January 2024 was organised by the urgent visit to Japan of Pierre Bohana, who is responsible for the plastic arts (film props) for the Harry Potter film series and other films. The tour was made possible by the urgent visit to Japan of Pierre Bohana, who has worked on the Harry Potter film series.

We will give you a quick rundown of the details, as we will rework the report content in due course, but we will write the conclusions first.

If you are a fan of Pierre Bohana, or a fan of the movie props (PROPs) from Harriotta and Fantabi, it's worth more than 45,000 yen, so it's definitely worth attending........

The original UK Harry Potter Studio Tour London offers a VIP tour for tickets called the Deluxe Tour with a full-time guide in addition to the regular ticket, but you will not meet Pierre Bohana. Also, events featuring Pierre Bohana are rare, only once every few years. (As far as I, Pancake Man, know)

Experience the Harry Potter Studio Tour Tokyo before it opens for business.

The lobby was also empty except for the Studio Tour Tokyo staff, so the three of us could take photos while listening to the secrets of the lobby carpet and stories.

ホグワーツ大広間の正面扉で記念撮影もできるかも♪

On the usual Harry Potter Studio Tour, you cannot take photos in front of the doors of Hogwarts Great Hall. On today's Premium Tour, we were able to! （≥∇≦）This makes me very happy! If I have a chance next time, I would like to participate in the tour dressed as Headmaster Dumbledore.

Just to remind you, this is a premium tour that has just started, so the experience and tour content may change depending on the situation.

In addition to the guide interviewer, there was another interviewer who accompanied the participants and took photos with my camera, explained other things and talked about Harriotta with me.

The inside of Hogwarts Great Hall can also be enjoyed exclusively by Premium Tour participants.

At each exhibition spot, you can listen to behind-the-scenes stories and introductions to the exhibits outside of the usual tour commentary.

This is an example of an introduction where guests are allowed to enter staff areas that are not normally open to guests  and take photos at the experience spots. Both photos and experiences are allowed during the allocated time in each area of the Premium Tour.

Pierre Bohana shows around Principal Dumbledore's area â

A surprise appearance by Pierre Bohana in Principal Dumbledore's office. Pierre Bohana gave a personal explanation of Dumbledore's office and the Headmaster's display in front of the Headmaster's office!

He will stand right next to you and talk to you in English about the construction and origins of the various tools. Even if you don't understand English, you can do it. You can borrow earphones and a receiver, and the interpreter will translate the information into Japanese.

You can also listen to Pierre Bohana's English flesh and enjoy the Japanese translation with the opposite ear. I was so excited that I couldn't get half of the commentary into my head. (Laughter)

After a while, Pierre's time is over and he will enjoy another premium tour.

When we reached the backlot, it was Butterbeer time. We enjoyed a toast with all the staff who came round with us.Â

This is where the premium tour ends.

coffee break

Back in the lesson area, you can choose from four drinks, including coffee, and a selection of four dorm cupcakes.

After the café time, it was time for Pierre's lecture.

Lectures and workshops by Pierre Bohana

The lecture time with Pierre Bohana and Emma was a valuable opportunity for Pierre Bohana to talk about how he started working with film props and his thoughts and methods of making Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts props. The content is very rich. (≥▽≦)

This was a nice lecture on the steps taken by the prop production team led by Pierre Bohana, who has created a number of fascinating wizarding world items.

There was a question time, and even the most difficult questions were kindly answered.â

Everyone should prepare what they want to ask in advance! I was so excited that I forgot what I had written down and couldn't even look back at my notes.

The best questions are the ones that you can only ask on this occasion... if you can't find them in the Harry Potter guidebooks or commentary books, that's even better! (I'm setting the bar high!).

Workshop,Death Eater (Death Eater) masks created by Pierre Bohana and his team.The students were able to experience some of the production techniques of theDesign the surface pattern of the Death Eater mask.The 'Etching Experience' is an etching experience in the middle of the production process of making prints.

Copper plates, a material also used in actual masks, and copper medals are used in the workshop to draw designs with black magic markers.

The designed bronze medal was left with Pierre Bohana and received about two hours later.

The shape is such that the area painted with black magic marker is raised.

More details to come when you experience it...(#^. ^#)

These are souvenirs of commemorative items for each of us.

Other premium tour souvenirs included. A cane boxed studio tour merchandise cane signed by Pierre Bohana. We also received a brand new Butterbeer mug (Souvenir Jockey).

This photo was taken with Pierre Bohana. He was also photographed holding a signed cane box with him. (*´▽｀*)

Incidentally, the room displays naked film props (PROPs), which could be admired and photographed at close range! Touching is not allowed!

The photo above is of the Harriotta thingy that was on display on the right side of the room! It's all about getting excited already!

Once the workshop was over, you could enter the Harry Potter Studio Tour again. You could choose to enter from the beginning of the lobby or start the second half of the area from the backlot in the middle.
