    The idea has come quite a long way with the set up, mapping, ideas, and people wanting to help, i'll be using the first post now to update people on whats happening, maps being used (so far there not working MM / Customs, they are there just to tell a story, IF the film works, i may work on releasing locations but thats a long way away)

    People Willing to help:-
    BraD SlayZ
    K1D SUPR3M3
    Carter1234 (script, Forge)
    FFM
    GsRREAPERxFS (Forge)
    Unfair Teamz (Forge, Script)
    TheOlympusPrime (Forge)

    GruntHunter
    ELI PONIN

    grif otaged (Forge)
    B3BLAST18 (Voice)
    BINKS1234 (Voice)
    Lennalf Nekchic (Voice, Forge)
    Zow Jr (Forge)

    blacksoul341 (Forge)

    Maps + Locations:-
    The Last stand + Forge World = 70%
    (unnamed Cliff side resistance base) + Forge World = 5%
    Invasion + Forged World = 15%

    UNSC Skybase + Forge World = 90%
    Camp Valor + Forge World = 40%


    yeah i was going to make a museum map and someone showed me a video of the take they did on it, was really intrested so it got me thinking... Halo: Fall of Reach... Animated film made using forge (i have a capture card) Sort of a montage documenting the key battles of reach which open up into a motion picture...

    Ideas of what people want to see, key battles to include, locations...

    thoughts feelings...

    and help lol, sort of testers that follow instruction

    So its a Machinima? Make sure you have some sort of "Tip of the Spear" battle, one that is as epic as we all expected.

    the tip of the spear will be when reach falls ;) a sort of filmed remake of the last stand level at the end of the campain, ob with more spartans, more epic ness etc...

    4 / 5 spartans fighting a (with editing) an un ending wave of elites.

    need to get so battles set up, and sorted first,

    anyone whos intrested i will get in touch with how ever possible when im about ready to start (of course if anyone wants to help with the building of the battles? lol)

    i was talking about sword base yesterday with a mate of mine because i dont want everthing happening in FW, so that one will be set up with defences that the spartan team fall back thru as the Elites slowly attack.

    Another works along the cliffs in FW which will be like a 'resistance base' which will get taken out

    Ive started work on a beach head set up also which will be closer to the start when the UNSC still has Scorps etc, not so much a fall back as a massicar

    And im working also on the 'last stand' map which is the same princable as the 'final stand' in the campain, my lidea of that will be 4 / 5 spartans are in the courtyard of a UNSC base as they slowly get surrounded by hundreds of elites (camera angles?)

    I also might end up doing bits of it in firefight to get you know grunts, jackles, hunters etc involved

    Thats the idea anyway, lots of work to do

    i'll pm you mate, forging battles is going to be the main hurdle ;)

    Sounds like a good movie if you can get everything to work. I cant wait to see the finished copy. I agree with broccollipie, make some epic battles on some of the bigger maps.

    I've always wanted to something along the lines of this but I don't have a capture card :( Oh well you can count me in. If you need help with body-acting, forging, or even script-writing I'll do what I can

    I started forging the other day and I thought posting pics would help get us some more help. The maps called Camp Valor. Basically, when the Covenant begins an all out assault they sneak into the base at night, killing two guards. But, one of the guards shoots his gun and alerts the other marines (or ODSTs/Spartans depending on what everyone thinks makes more sense) The battle begins soon after.
    I kind of wanted to go with something similar to the Halo Landfall live action for Halo 3, with a labyrinth of walls to give it a sort of close-quarters feel and each little area to have its own importance or purpose.
    NOTE:I have a vague overview of how I want the battle to take place. Also the map is NOT complete. Still have about 6,000 in the budget.

    Here's an overview
    [​IMG]

    Base's HQ
    [​IMG]

    Beachhead bunker. This is where the guards are killed
    [​IMG]

    Rest of the beachhead. Elites in the first wave are cut down here but the seond wave pushes the UNSC back. You can also see the supply pads as well as another pillbox bunker.
    [​IMG]

    Close-up on supply pads. When these are shut down mysteriously the marines are sent out to patrol, thus the two guards in the bunker to be killed
    [​IMG]

    Other bunker
    [​IMG]

    Don't know what to call it but it looks cool. Marines or whatever hold here until the near end of the battle. Pinned down by wraith fire and endless elites, they are eventually overwhelmed, but they take one of the wraiths with them and the elites that kill them are blown up by an explosion.
    [​IMG]

    Position of one of the tanks. I intend on putting up more defenses for this area.
    [​IMG]

    Comm relay and gereators. Elites get pinned down by two ODSTs, one sniper and his spotter. They're killed by a wraith.
    [​IMG]

    UNSC falls back into caves up into this area.
    [​IMG]

    Cave system. Might either be a vehicle depot/armory or med-station.
    [​IMG]

    Last stand. Last of UNSC troops are pushed up this hill. One by one, they are killed off as elites push ever closer. Last man, probably the general in command, orders or and orbital strike or he is killed saying something epic.
    [​IMG]

    Sooooooo yeah, tell me what you guys think.
