Animating a crack. How to approach this?

Hi,

 

I really like the look of this piece as far as the animating crack goes.

 

 

Around 5 seconds and 9 seconds is what I'm talking about.

Where the crack travels up the wall.

 

What I'm attempting to do is animate a crack along a 'wall' and then have a portion of the wall crumble away in front of the crack and then have the crack continue up the other side.

 

I have the fracturing down with the glue network, etc. to control the fracture.

 

It's the crack portion I'm trying to knock out. I've watched a tutorial on animating a crack using an L-system, but I don't think that's going to work in my case.

 

I found this on Vimeo.

 

That is pretty much what I'm looking for, but have no clue how to make it work with a wall that's pre-fractured.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Jim
