David Heyman on Battle of Hogwarts, tone of the films 
The climactic "Battle of Hogwarts" in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II will be around thirty-minutes long, according to a new interview with David Heyman. Also in the interview, Heyman notes that part I will be, "a road movie", while part II, "more operatic with the huge, great battle for Hogwarts".
The ending of part 2 is one of the last things they’re going to shoot. David also says he expects the ending battle to be around 30 minutes in the movie. He says the gang gets to Hogwarts early on and then they’re a lot of build up to the battle.

Dan Radcliffe & David Heyman elaborate on DH split
In an interview with Empire magazine, Daniel Radcliffe and David Heyman elaborated about the "split scene" dividing Deathly Hallows: Part 1 and Deathly Hallows: Part 2:
"We've played around with a couple of places," said Heyman, "and ultimately settled on a place that we think is very exciting, and I think quite bold, in that it's not necessarily where one might expect. You want to give a sense of completion, on one hand, but a sense that there's another piece, more to come. We tried one and then Steve (Kloves, screenwriter) came up with the idea to try it another way and when we tried that, it felt just right."
Daniel Radcliffe added that the split is "at a very tense cliffhanger," which may be a bigger clue for fans.
