Hello! So I was insterested in how Blizzard animated their series like the Burdens of Shao Hao, the WoD, Legion and BfA ones. Does anyone know how that style of animation is called? Not only they are really cool but I also want to try and learn how to do it, I just don’t have a target to pursuit

Btw, I’m a total newbie in the animation thing

Thanks!

Kinda looks like they’re using motion comic animation techniques. Technically it’s a very lazy way to animate as it’s manipulating pictures more than actual animation. It works well because the art team has been carrying wow since Legion; a testament to their skill.

I think it’s called ‘animatic’.
