The Craft of War: Blind, Amazing WoW Fight Sequence

There are few World of Warcraft videos that leave me with a feeling of sheer and utter awe. To say The Craft of War: Blind left me amazed would be an injustice. It’s without question the best World of Warcraft video I’ve ever seen. It was created by Percula, a professional animator who clearly has some skills in high end video editing software. I really don’t know what else to say…it’s amazing, watch it, tell your friends!

Hopefully this is the first of many videos from Percula.

Note from the Author, Percula:

Earlier this year I got pretty bored and decided to do something creative in my spare time. I’ve been wanting to do a fight scene for a while and decided to develop a story using World of Warcraft. Animation is what I do and I decided to use my skills in making something.

This is only the second personal creative work I’ve ever posted so I’m a bit nervous about it. The first being an image I painted years ago which…um… we don’t talk about. :) It’s a bit nerve-wracking to post creative work for others to judge.

I’ve thought about making this a series but I’m faced with an impending layoff so my future is unclear. If I get a positive reaction I’m sure I’ll be working on something else in the future.

  2. WoW Gold Making Strategy #3 – Changing Markets and WotLK Speculation
  3. Mutilate Rogue / Shadow Priest 2v2 Video – Tuska 4
  4. Frost Mage PvP Video – Ctl1

    Man, you need to get blizz to set you up with their own version of Industrial Light & Magic, that was awesome and so is your talent. Please continue to do more :)

    Beautiful piece of work, best action scenes I’ve seen out of a Machinima. Must have been quite the challenge to setup some of those scenes.

    Interesting choice of music, not to my taste but fit the vid well enough.

    Would love to see your work integrated into a full length movie at some point. I think it would be hard to top with a good story back drop.

    I would love to see some caster action with custom made spells.

    That was an amazing video. I was actually caught off-guard! I figured it was some dumb PvP video or something. But I was completely wrong. You did a great job. Kept my interest the whole time. When Blizzard releases its Warcraft movie for theaters, they should have an EPIC fight like that one. You should apply :)

    Wow…Possibly the best machinima i`ve ever seen, my jaw dropped with pure astonishment.

  12. Milo on January 28th, 2009 10:41 pm

    Wow… and I don’t world of warcraft…
