The Black List (Halo 4 Machinima)

The Infinity was just boarded, and is now a pile of rubble on Reqieum. Who did this? A very, very powerful force who’s name is unknown, for the only ones who have seen them have been put into their own graves.

After hearing this, a UNSC base that has reformed on Reach over the years sends their best squad (and smallest) to check it out. This squad is known as The Black List. (Yes, if know a clan by this name, you can’t get mad. The squad is BASED off of the clan.

Since the squad is going to consist of some of the actual clan members, we will only be needing actors for the “unknown force,” which we will need 10 of. This may turn out to be a series or just one video. We haven’t fully planned yet. In fact, all we will need is the ability to contact you, because it may not be for a week or weeks.

If you are interested, please contact me or SepiaAnt8071.
P.S. If you would like to help direct, that would be great! I don’t have a mic (meaning my character is going to have a cut throat or tongue) so it would be awesone if we had more than one director for 16 people!

Hey, I would be willing to help out for you guys but I would need a bit more info about it first before I commit. If you want to pm me message my xbl: L3g3ndarY NovA.

What kind of information are you looking for?

Ok, I finally came up with the colors!

The Black List: Black and Purple Armor
“Unknown Force” (Don’t worry, the name will change eventually): Silver and Color-of-Choice (besides for purple, it would look to much like the squad’s colors)

I would just need info mainly about the rough times of trying to film and also if map packs are needed or not because I wont have those for a bit longer. (Files got corrupted and can’t re-download them for some stupid reason.)

Well, you wouldn’t need any map packs, besides for MAYBE Forge Island, but that would be it.

That should be fine then. Whenever you need me just message my xbl gt: L3g3ndarY NovA (best way to contact me) and if I’m on I’ll be happy to help.

HEy i would love to help out acting for the “Unknown force” message me my GT is MidknightzRiderz Im 14

I hope you don’t plan to record dialogue over Xbox Live.

Awesome, more people! I won’t be messaging you just yet, but I will be doing it soon. To be honest, I just came up the idea, I really NO idea how to make a Machinima. Like I said, more directors would be great. I don’t even know if Sepia is willing to do everything for me, so directors and editors/producers are very much needed.

You could have asked me. Also for those who are helping thanks. I will be directing this but will take some time to go over final plans for the b machinima. Also expect delays so maps can be made. I have a capture card and mic to direct so no worries there.

I want to know from those who posted if you have body acting/machinima experience. If not I’ll take time to train people beforehand.

I’ll be honest, I’ve barely seen halo body/voice acting (bar a few RvB eps.), let alone do it myself. But I’m willing to give it a shot. It sounds fun.

I have yet to do any acting but i could be helpful so some training may be needed.

Thank u so much Sepia! I will be making the maps I had in mind when I can.

The maps I were thinking are gonna be on Erosion and Forge Island. The Black List’s base was gonna be on Erosion, and their ship they would be leaving on. The Forge Island map was gonna be their crash site. (They’re gonna get shot down)

P.S. If you are participating, please add me on XBL. I keep forgetting to msg/add you, and my main priorities are the maps right now, so I’m sure I would forget again.

Oh, and sorry, but I changed the colors up a bit. I figured if we had every squad member’s armor black and purple, it might be hard to tell who is who.

The Black List
Primary: Black
Secondary: Purple, Orange, Red, or Green.

“Unknown Force”
Primary: Silver
Secondary: Color of Choice (Except for for Purple, Orange, Red, or Green)

The colors for the bad guys are still the same, except there are three more side colors you can’t have.

Also, please have a class set aside for this Machinima, with only Human weapons. I want this because we need this to look less “spacy” then the Halo games. There is an exception to Covenant or Forerunner weapons: cool story behind the reasoning for alien weapons.

> Thank u so much Sepia! I will be making the maps I had in mind when I can.

You are welcome, though I thought we already went over this…and for the maps we/I may have to use some of the actual maps from The Black List. But for time over the summer I am going to be getting a summer job so I don’t know what my schedule is going to be like.

You really didn’t have to mention the colors, but I like that you are reverting back to the classic TBL colors. I can handle the weapon assignments with game-type load-outs (a thing that most people seem to forget to think of for machinimas in Halo 4).

Also no spoilers! :smiley:

I wasn’t talking about the training maps, I was talking about the ones for the story.

If anyone could help with this Recruiting thing with their friends, that would be great! We still need 8 more people, and maybe you can try telling your friends on XBL about it? You never know, they may think it would be an awesome opportunity!

If they are interested, please have them contact me or SepiaAnt8071.
