Earlier today a handful of us started to talk about a Halo Machinima. We came up with the idea of making episodes that would relate to a weekly battle and the outcome of the battle would change the story. This is a thread to help us remember, take notes, create together, help set things up, and etc. for the purposes of making this a successful web series.
The story so far… (Notes with a grain of salt)
There are three factions, Pirates, alliance, and the empire. The first level is a pirate raid on a wrecking yard… but little do the Pirates know that there is a magical rock that the Empire is studying in the wrecking yard. Later down the road there'll be a battle in a station (I need help remembering what it is precisely) and the empire city… but we are planning for changes so that these levels may be played in a different way or not, at all depending on which side wins and loses.

Lots of changes has happened, lots of people have joined, few have left, but we are getting close to filming time (I think).
The final drafts of episode one through four are on page 12 of this forum at the bottom together in one post.
The other three scripts are probably going be on that page as well.
Pirate Trailer on pages 9-10
Capt. on page 9

All maps are basically completed, it would be good to have another test run of all the maps and game types.
All on page 13:
Zeeke's computer has crashed sometime ago but hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
Episode five has been written but read one of the specific possible outcomes, one possibility is much simpler to read and gives you a much more accurate description of how long the episode could be. There is one possible outcome for the empire and the alliance. If you can handle multiple possibilities then read the empire possibilities, it was the first one to be released. Or if you want to know how multiple possibilities will be narrowed down into one, read the empire possibilities and then the one possible outcome for the empire.

Page 17 has a great episode outline for season one. Also, Zeeke got in contact with some people that can make some cool music as well as other fellow youtubers who are hopefully checking this out right now. If you are, page 17 will tell everything, simple, sweet, concise, and other words as such.
