Video of The Month: Ballads of Reach
This is an epic mixing of different popular songs and using Halo Reach to create funny and creative skits that go with the songs!
Machinima Contest:
Eagle5104 is hosting the second ever machinima contest on halowaypoint and you can enter here: Machinima Contest
I make a machinima series called Playtime. Season 1 aired back in June 2011. Season 2 will be aired here on Halo Waypoint, starting Monday October 3rd.
All the details for the Season 2 release schedule can be found here.
> go to the youtube channel Arbiter617. Then tremble at the sheer epicosity
Arbiter’s good at epic scenes, but to be honest, I look for more than just epicness in machinima. Not that I don’t like him, I’m subscribed and I enjoy watching his videos.
OT:
Mai main channel has machinima shorts on it:
And my clan’s channel posted a HMV compilation that I directed and edited:

If you’re willing to do some reading, I posted a fairly in-depth development blog on my website that covers the entire production process for Season 2 of my Playtime series.
The blog is split into 5 articles, each one covering a particular aspect of production (one for sound recording, one for editing, etc.)

1.Well if you saw my videos and looked at the quality, and you are ok with that then are capture card was only 50 bucks or so on amazon. Also you could buy render minutes but I don’t know what is going to happen with bungie pro… so I would check into that a little more before purchasing.
2.To record your voices you could easily download the program audacity! A bunch of machinima makers use it!

DUDE Awesome job with that bottom video! Gave me a good laugh! You should tottaly do another one of those it was really great!
I am strictly a Halo Machinima Director and I do not care for “trivial” things such as Comment, Rate & Subscribe. At the end of the day, Interent Fame is pointless for Machinima Directors and I will simply let the audiences judge my work. If they like it and wish to know me then that is absolutely fine.

Nice series so far from what I’ve watched!
I have a question though… What process do you use when creating a script like this? This is open to anyone as well if they would like to answer. I would love to know cause for my groups series we are moving into a storyline and I would really love to know!
The alternate ending starts of a bit slow but it’s worth the watch. Those are the only two machinimas I have right now but I’ll be putting up a lot more over the coming months.
You check out the videos I have listed as well cause the ones up their are on a zombie story!
Also, the way you made that I feel could go for a real series, Like a 3 part series on survivors or how the plague started! You should definatly think about that!

Thanks. To be honest though, I’d rather get some narrative content out.
He does some great tutorials. I don’t actually use After Effects, but I use Motion 4 which is Apple’s equivalent of after effects so it’s easily translatable.

I’ll look into that link and maybe I can post stuff like this in the OP which will help new machinima makers.
