Jim Kay talks about illustrating 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban' 

so very sick of people moaning in the comments about not enough illustrations/ blah blah blah, i thought it was beautiful/ so much hard work went into it and instead of being so ungrateful about there being not quite enough wouldn't it be better to praise the wonderful illustrations he has made/ if you really feel that strongly make your own illustrations for how you see the characters/ places

I hope they put out a box set of the first three illustrated editions. I love how Jim Kay doesn't think of the movies when illustrating, but rather his own interpretation while reading the book.

I personally imagine the Dementor’s face like that ‘Scream’ painting’s face.

love how much detail has been put into these illustrations. there couldn't be a better artist! ⚡️👌🏻

I got the three book set for Christmas & cried I'm in love with your work absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!

Can’t wait for books 5-7!!😍

I can't believe that your illustrations were amazing! and realistic! and I can never stop watching and reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban!

the illustrations are beautiful though I was hoping to see the firebolt and honeydukes sweetshop, still this is a great copy

I love the details in the Snape art, fantastic little nods.

when people like u with so much information,involvement,creativity,fun and great talent.....the final result is just MASTERPIECE

And there were not one picture of Hermoine with the time turner clock. That was a very vital part.

I can't help but notice his version of snape being quite handsome....when he smiles I suppose. Though in the first book there was a darker version of him.

Thank you SO MUCH for these amazing editions, Bloomsbury! I've bought the first two deluxe editions and they're absolutely incredible. Jim's illustrations are perfection!

Stunning Cover! Amazing details! *hats off*

Aww! This is so awesome! He obviously puts a lot of thought into his work. Love it ❤️

Unicorns with Cedric Diggory in the Fourth book. I insist to see the goblet, World Cup, Fleur, Yule Ball and the Mermaid Lake.

His work is amazing.

I love these videos so much 💜 can’t wait for the Goblet of Fire!

The level of detail in each illustration captures every element in my imagination, then triples it. The images of Snape are perfection! I strongly feel, however, Trelawney does not wear a turban and she must have long, flowing hair to match her long, flowy shawls & bangles - her blunt bob murders me.

After seeing a bunch of comments that are disappointed about the lack of illustration in the third illustrated books, all I can say is: Please Bloomsbury, don't rush the next book! Let Jim take his time working on the illustration. You don't have to force yourself to publish one book each year. There are a lot of version of HP books already, but I belive this is the first one with pages that full of colorful illustration, so I want this to be the best HP illustration there could be. I know how hard it is to work on an illustration, so I want Jim to come up with the best illustration he could for this books! So take your time, Jim. Hope you could finish all the 7 books with a good quality illustration on each pages~♡ p.s: Oh if the books end up too thick, maybe you could split the edition to part 1 and 2, just like the movies, cause be honest, we all already know the story by heart, and all we want is the colorfull illustration that could satisfy our imagination about the story.

i love jim kays illustrated.

Amazing work 😍

I just got the first 3 books collection and I'm so excited to start! Going to be listening to Harry Potter atmospheric music during it

Please make translated versions ❤️

so cool hope to buy it ^_^

Best book cover is night bus🚌

My first thought was, hello, brother of sherlock!

they r gorgeous jim kay 🧡

I love his work😏

I love the Jim Kay editions ❤ I can't wait to get Prisoner of Azkaban 😊

Who else can’t wait for GOBLET OF FIRE OMG, my favourite book 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 I can’t wait to see his interpretation of the merpeople in the Great Lake and the different wizarding schools ugh I want it now xx

❤❤❤

The thing with the mole, lily, and slug are ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, but I'm disappointed with Snape's face. JRK states he is not a hero, and here he looks too nice. He should've been frowning or something. His face looks too calm and amiable.

What about the number 4 5 6 and seven?

4 more months!!!!

When is the 5th book releasing

Why aren’t there as many illustrations in this years book than previous ones?

Where can I get the 4th illustration edition book

I’ve tried buying the Bloomsbury version from the site and it won’t let me. It says we are unable to complete your purchase due to territorial sales restrictions for Harry Potter

Sir when did Harry Potter and globlet of fire release Please tell me Please reply me if anyone knows that Please.,..........

2:04 It is nowhere stated in the Harry Potter books that Snape was once a member of the Slug Club during his time at Hogwarts. I don't consider him to be the type for it. Would he even want to be in it / spend time on something like that? Highly questionable if you ask me.

I'm sooo disappointed in the lack of Illustrations.

Hi jim could you read your mail? I’m the girl from argentina, thank you

really disappointing. first two Illustrations from this video ain't even in the book. that's what it's all about, right? the illustrations? because we already got the story since forever in other versions. goblet of fire has so much to offer. please consider doing it right.

so is every single movie in a illustrated book form?

I hope they put out a box set of the first three illustrated editions. I love how Jim Kay doesn't think of the movies when illustrating, but rather his own interpretation while reading the book.
