The actor, who portrays Albus Dumbledore's brother Abeforth in the final instalment of the wizarding series, said that the young stars helped ease his mind as he got the hang of how things worked on the film's hectic set.
"And then there's you, who has been around for a long time, and they're the ones putting you at ease and making sure you know what you're doing on set."
Hinds added that he found it "bizarre" to watch the cast's approach to shooting.
"It was bizarre. But it was also really interesting to see things from that perspective. With every job, you're typically looking for the director to make sure you're doing the right thing but with Emma, Rupert and Daniel, that has become part of their psyche," he recalled.
