Mocap meets monster in The Witcher 4’s cinematic reveal, where Ciri faces off against Bauk in an intense and beautifully crafted duel. The fight sequence was brought to life using a 7-meter rig suspended from the ceiling, operated by three skilled puppeteers controlling the creature’s attacking arms while Maciej Kwiatkowski embodied Bauk’s body performance. The choreography was shot in just one seamless take, allowing the creative team to preview the action live on set, blending raw movement with Witcher-style combat. One of the most memorable chained jump moves was created just minutes before rolling — showing how tech, timing, and talent come together to craft unforgettable cinematic moments.Platige
