Lordaeron has fallen years ago, yet its former defenders are still among us. Some of them took up the cause of the Alliance whole heartedly, while others never truly let go of their anger. Recently, Donny has been sent on patrol in his former homeland and his long forgotten need for vengenace has reemerged.
This movie took us 5 months to produce. It’s the first time we fully collaborted on a proper short film as Team True Potential. We have set up a system for rebuilding WoW environments and figured out most special effects from scratch. A lot of time was spent on research, learning from failure and software crashing. It started with a short duel animation that was supposed to be 30 seconds. However as more were added it expanded into a 3 minute short film complete with a backstory. Since the project was getting completely out of hand already, we decided to hire a professional composer. The impressively cinematic soundtrack was composed entirely for this movie by Zach Heyde.
These films take astronomical amounts of work. Combined, we have spent approximately 1500 hours of work to create this film. We can dedicate ourselves to filmmaking more effectively if you would support us so we can cover our expenses and buy ourselves more time.

Kicking off the early 2000s MMO boom, World of Warcraft was a critical and commercial success from the beginning. But with it being a relatively early incarnation of the genre, and being as popular as it was, there were bound to be problems. And problems there were not even a year after the game was released, when players started dropping like flies.
