Behind the Scenes[edit | edit source]
Long after the movie's release in 2008, Diablo III Community Manager Bashiok shared some information about the creation of the demo video. [1]
The hand shot just wasn't working that well, so we'd tweak it, hope that the physics would move the debris properly. Shoot, it didn't work right. Tweak it again, reshoot the entire interior run, something else might go wrong, etc. Over and over. In the end we had to settle with what would appear to most as a wall collapse simply because we didn't have time before the announcement to keep tweaking it and reshooting everything to make it more clear that it was a hand busting through the wall and grabbing him. Especially when the one we went with had some very perfect moments in it (zombie corpse landing on railing).
I'm glad that someone caught it though, a lot of work went into those animations, and unfortunately we just ran out of time to showcase them.- See a sequence of shots showing this scripted event on the Siegebreaker snatch page.
