Filmmaker William Rouse is back to take a look at the most beloved World of Warcraft cinematics. From the awakening of Arthas from Wrath of the Lich King to Varian’s epic landing to the Broken Shore from Legion. He will then discover the Lordaeron Battle from Battle for Azeroth, Sylvanas fight against Bolvar from Shadowlands, and finishing with the rebellion of Grommash and his Iron Horde.
For years, people have been craving for Blizzard to make a full CGI movie on WoW, since everyone will agree that each one of their cinematic, regardless of the expansion’s quality, is a 5-minute masterpiece that will be rewatched for years to come.
But how well crafter are those cutscenes in terms of cinematography?
The camera movement, the lighting, the choice of colors, the music, all contribute to WoW’s storytelling, and William is gonna analyze all of these details with you.
Let’s head back to Azeroth for this episode, and see what our expert will have to say about these epic cinematics.
World of Warcraft takes place in a 3D representation of the Warcraft universe that players can interact with through their characters. The game world initially consisted of the two continents in Azeroth: Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms. Four separate expansions later added to the game’s playable area the realms of Outland and Draenor and the continents of Northrend and Pandaria. As a player explores new locations, different routes and means of transportation become available. Players can access “flight masters” in newly discovered locations to fly to previously discovered locations in other parts of the world. Players can also use boats, zeppelins, or portals to move from one continent to another.

The Editor is the GOAT
Wrath of the lich king cinematic is so amazing they sold it off with the perfect animations, music and graphics.
But also during the scene with the greenish glowing drink, it's indeed an good way to use it for evil as a way of representing "corruption"
This guy needs to check out the Diablo cinematics if he wants more dark grittiness, or the FF14 trailers if he wants more storytelling.
next: smash brothers or league of legends cinematics 😀
Hero shot of WoW's greatest villain.
The only thing that keep me coming back to wow is the cinematic trailers
I enjoyed the video a lot more knowing that the editor was a proper man of culture.
Editors are right. How dare he insulting the Horde?
rofl pink lady thing wonder how many Horde are going to react to that talking about their queen XD
The game may have gone to shit but the cinematics will always be godly
ye are another
Whoever possibly didn't notice, 11:30~ is a callback to how Grom died to Mannoroth exploding in Warcraft 3, however here he survives.
Whoever the editor for this was, I love you.
Whoever let that editor have fun with this, love you too.
The Lich King dragon didnt looks like the Game of Thrones…. Game of Thrones scene took inspiration from that trailer. 🙂
not gonna lie, when he started talking over one of the best music soundtracks every created, I was ready to punch the wall.
The lich king movie is about15 years old and still looks better then most cinematics today xD
Max Squareexnis can hold up with blizzard movies… offcourse theremany of them today, but i am mostly sure that they are all inspired by those great cinematic trailer/movies
Nobody:
Me when I am sitting at school at a freezing day with no jacket and wearing shorts 0:49:
That looks nothing like Game of Thrones dragons. Sindragosa is way way cooler looking.
Editing was the best part hahaha love you guys
What “films” has this man done.. lol this commentary is wack.
sryu but ure not knowing what u are doing here:) u need to get into the lore and learn this game for real m8
The thing I like most about the battle for azeroth trailer is the final shot where it's basically an exact replica of the original warcraft 1 box art
so no classic, no tbc and warlords is after shadowlands.
iiiiight
ngl you're talking to us like no one knows anyone in these cinematics.
you aren't thinking about the fact we've been interacting with these characters for 10+ years at the point of these cinematics coming out.. lol we're really famimilar with them all. So when you're talking about how we don't know who Anduin is, we don't know if he's good or evil. We relate to him because he's a human rather than the orcs (pretty sure horde has a higher playerbase than alliance) so it's just cringe af lol
These aren't 'new' characters. these are characters that have been developing for 20+ years. When you saw a new trailer for a GoT season, when there was an old character in there for the first time in that trailer, even though they were in previous seasons, do you see them as new characters?
No you don't lol
The Art team of WOW is literally the best there is. They are incredibly masterfully good.
From Game of of thrones XD…
Bravo.
This guy really explains a lot, which is really nice, and he's passionate, would love to see more
he seems like he is high
You should have listened to the music and the speech.
WAOW I never realized that the Moon was glowing on the stairs at Icecrown Citadel as Lady Sylvanas was walking up, holy crap, she was blessed by Elune for the job.:D
It looks like the dragon from GoT…then you realize it came out an entire decade before the frost dragon in GoT.
The Wotlk cinematic always hits me hardest, but nothing gets me as hyped, as BFA Cinematic 😀
You’re fantastic dude. So smart
Game of Thrones actually copied this scene
Bruh when he mentioned game of thrones I felt personally offended
man… u talk a lot over the video… u must be fun at group watching lol
