Exciting news!
Our latest Harry Potter covers have been shortlisted in the Advertising: Illustration category at the upcoming Drum Awards 2024. These awards celebrate the very best work, companies and people from the world of marketing and media and it’s a pleasure to be shortlisted alongside other exceptional projects.
The brief: a new set of covers to celebrate the high anticipated release of Stephen Fry’s iconic and quintessentially British narrations of the Harry Potter stories in the US and Canadian markets. Working closely with the talented team at La Plage, we took a broader view of iconic locations and landscapes from within the stories, aiming to create a sense of nostalgia and, naturally, a touch of magic. Take, for instance, the cover of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, where the legendary Knight Bus weaves its way through the bustling streets of London. If you look closely, you can spot the Palace Theatre, the home of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child since 2016, tucked into the scene.
Big congratulations to everyone who worked on these captivating illustrations at both team Pottermore and La Plage. They are a resounding success and a fantastic way to reignite the magic for both new fans and long-time listeners in the US and Canada.
