This is it, my first episode of my first machinima series. It took me 6 long months to finally get it done and I’m very pleased that it is. Through the course of the production, I learned new skills in editing and strengthened my usage in Photoshop. I had a lot of fun with my friends acting out the scenes and creating the voices. Thank you so much SJ, JB, IVY, JACK, and JAZZ, it means a lot to me and thank you very much for helping me create something I’ve always wanted to do since 2005.
I’ve always wanted to create a Halo Machinima Story of my own, I even wrote a story about it, but it got deleted when my hard drive crashed. I only remember so much from what I wrote, but trying to bring it back piece by piece. I was inspired by really good halo film makers like Jamie98s and the people from Hollywood Halo, I’ve always wanted to join such a crew, but knew nothing about halo video making. But anyway, their inspiration and dedication lead me to creating my own series. Thank you very much Jamie98s, the people of Hollywood Halo, and of course Rooster Teeth.
Quick Review of the Characters/Story (spoiler, suggest you watch video then read)
The story is told in the view points of the soldiers at war who are risking their lives the most.
My story is about a soldier whose code is Z97, who is confused about his place in the world and why is he in the war when he has nothing to fight for. He continues to seek the answer of his purpose in life through the battles he volunteers and hopes to die in, but seems to be unable to end his life so easily. He meets up with another soldier whose code is G70, an ace driver, who is very relaxed in the most dangerous scenarios and keeps things very optimistic and simple. They introduce each other and decide to ignore their order and proceed to do what they want to do and lead to discovering a mysterious orb with artificial intelligence equal to a normal person. Their mission was to destroy it, but instead rescues it. The consequences of saving something may lead to dear tragic confrontations; however everything happens for a reason.
This episode may not have as much of a story basis, but is packed with a lot of action and a lot of things to question the audience of this alternative universe’s society and their world is like. I will try to focus more on story in the next episode, but I can’t guarantee much, I can’t predict the future.
I Hope you enjoyed it!
The making of this episode is just hilarious and I want to share it with the world soon, I just need to create it first. So much work to do, and I got so much homework piled up too >.>
