How were the intro movies for DA:O/DA-A created?

Probably not with the toolset, but perhaps someone here knows which program(s) were used to create the impressive 2D animations for the introductory narrations by Duncan (DA:O) and Varel (DA-A)?

I think they were created with the toolset, actually.
I think so because you can find all the animations, f.e. Duncan fighting the darkspawn amongst the other animations. 
But I'm not sure!

I believe he means the 2D excellent artwork created in the very beginning. I really wouldn't know. I tried looking at the art credits, but none were mentioned specifically responsible for that part. At least that way we could ask that person how they were created.

One of the DA2 pre-release videos had someone talking about the 2D opening scenes, but I think it was buried in a video about various things. That said, I would hazard the guess of "not-toolset". The 2d videos are converted to .bik files and used in toolset cutscenes, but were likely made somewhere else.

it's just 2d art. you can create it with almost every program which is able to handle pictures and layers. a flash editor, photoshop, after effects, even with powerpoint you can create layer animations and convert them to videos.

Correct. I believe they're done in Flash, by the very talented Nick Thornborrow.

Doh, sorry, I overread the "2D" part in your post. ;P

Oh, thanks. I should look more into Flash...
I did some video work with Powerpoint for theater performances, but it's a clumsy and too inaccurate process IMO...
I'm still curious about the actual tools used... I really liked the fluidity of the transitions...
Nick Thornborrow's art on his blog is beautiful!

Flash is a powerful tool when used right. Can create alot of things with it, I use it to make small animations for web pages or buttons. But some can make whole web sites with it.
