Cool! Mean streets and Witchwood are some of my favourite animations, there's just something really fun about them.
Aww, thanks!:D Those are probably my two favorites of mine as well. My overall favorite is still Zwick's Old Gods one though, it's just so squishy and gross. :3
Isn't that the beautiful work from /u/hadidjahb ? (Trying to remember from Artist at Work at the last Blizzcon)
Ahhhh you’re sweet but the rarity glows themselves are from way before my time, those are a Thompson-Zwicker special.^ I just did the actual pack opening animation.=)
We just call that Rastakhan's Rumble now ;) Was it Trolls for a long time? (as a placeholder)
Dammit.X) It was a lot of different variations of Troll themes for a long time - I don't remember how long before we picked Rastakhan's Rumble, but there were a lot of different settings and a lot of consistent Trolls.
I'm also just really bad at changing what I habitually call the sets - that same sentence I'd initially typed 'Gilneas' instead of 'Witchwood'. Me not brain so good.:B
Is there anywhere where you discuss your thought process behind how you designed them? I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts.
Nothing in-depth currently, but I'd actually been debating hitting up community about writing an article about pack openings in the same sort of vein as the Boomsday VFX one; if I can find a good time to write one I'll swing back around and ping you.=)
(Full disclosure it probably wouldn't come out until at least summer next year though, that's the next opening I'm tentatively slated to do.)

Five now - did Mean Streets, Un’Goro, Witchwood, Boomsday, and Trolls.
