LinkHere's a neat little interview Machinima.com did with some of the production crew of South Park, on the infamous WoW episode.
Some interesting little tidbits:
- The in-game bits were shot on one of the Burning Crusade beta servers. This often resulted in random players accidentally wandering into shot and getting insta-killed by Blizzard staff.
- The scenes that involved custom animations were done in Maya (which South Park, oddly enough, is also animated in) using slightly modified versions of Blizzard's own source models.
- The episode was finished at 3am of the day it was supposed to air. This is apparently not an uncommon occurrence...
