It is worth noting that when you first set the scene, the background needs to be completely still and therefore keep pets and other people out the way until its captured. Because of this, the little stand included in the box is really helpful, allowing you to prop it up to easily record the scene you would like as your back drop. It’s important to note that you h ave to keep the camera still – you cant just hold in your hands otherwise it won’t work properly. The Harry Potter Invisibility cloak is very easy to use, with minimal initial set up, although I have learned in recent weeks that I definitely do need to work on my cloak swishing technique! Our Experience of the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak Imagine taking this along to the Warner Bros Studio Tour and wearing it in The Great Hall? What mischief would you get up to? We’ve been having a right laugh using the invisibility cloak around our home. Unfortunately, as some muggles will be disappointed to learn, the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak doesn’t actually make you disappear in real life (sorry), but using the WOW stuff app, you can take photos and produce videos where you body has seemingly disappeared. The Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak works via green screen, and using the app the green colour of the cloak blends in with the background whatever you put it on, creating the illusion of invisibility. How does the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak work? You can see it in action in my video below. Whilst the cloak is worn with the green side facing outwards, the green screen effect will make you appear to be invisible, meaning you can create floating heads or moving objects whilst your body seems to disappear. You can then set a timer countdown to give you time to prepare, and flick between still images or video recording depending on the footage you wish to capture. Using the stand included in the box, you set up the scene you want to use, and set the app into invisible mode.

To use the cloak, you simply unpack it from the box, download the special free WOW Stuff app (available on Apple and Android) and enter the unique code on the instructions to link the two together. With a silk green lining on the reverse, this is the side which turns invisible when used alongside the app. The Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak pack comes with a large sized cloak which has the traditional authentic old woven design on the one side, just like the one you will see in the movies. You simply download the app, pop on the cloak and there you have it – Mischief Managed! The concept of the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak is very simple. We have bought and reviewed a fair few Harry Potter toys, games and products before including the Harry Potter Sorting Hatand the Harry Potter Wizard Dueling Wands but the release of the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak was definitely something we were both excited to learn about, and couldn’t wait to give it a go!Ībout the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak As we well know, Harry goes on to use the Invisibility Cloak on his missions to defeat He Who Shall Not Be Named, taking it on lots of adventures and challenges beyond his years. At first, Harry just sees a giant cloak but Ron’s reaction when his body disappears is amazing! He is given just one message with it – USE IT WELL. One of my favourite story lines from Harry Potter is in the Philosopher’s Stone where we are first introduced to the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak, given to Harry on his first ever Christmas at Hogwarts. Having grown up as a teenager when the books were being released the first time around, it is so lovely to be now in a position to share the experience with my own daughter, watching the films, reading the books, visiting the Harry Potter locations around the UK and watching her immerse herself fully in the magical world of wizards and spells.

We are MASSIVE fans of Harry Potter in this house, so were pretty excited to learn that just in time for Christmas 2019, a real life Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak was being released – perfect for muggles and wannabe wizards alike!
