3D realistic cut screens?

Does anyone know what program Blizzard used to make the 5 or 6 relistic cut screens? (like the one when u first play wc3 with the orc and footman fighting).

3DS Max I believe. And some program to record it

They're prerendered cutscenes. You can't do anything like that in the WC3 engine. Closest thing is the Arthas versus Illidan fight or the loading screens

Can Max itself not record any sequence to an AVI or something?

The cutsceens were rendered in 3ds max. The avi extensions were change to mpq. Just change the extension to avi an play it with a normal player.
