Well the word came down from Epic this week. We won the second round of the Make Something Unreal Contest with our DoubleKill entry. Huge thanks to Ricky, DigitalPhil, Peter, and Emrys for their hard work and dedication.  Couldn’t have done it without you!!

Xbox.Ca deal off, Halo Wars machinima still on…

Posted by m3 On February - 6 - 2009

After the release of the ut3 vs halo dance video, we were contacted by the PR firm that handles the Xbox canada account asking us if we could possibly make a Halo Wars machinima before the release of the game.  I was delighted to talk with them. I let them know what all I needed and what was involved.  Long story short is that after a dozen email exchanges they were unable to gain permission from Bungie and MSoft for the characters and Epic for the engine.  If I were Microsoft I probably wouldn’t want people to see how awesome Halo looks in the unreal engine either.  The bright side is that I have decided to do it anyways :)  maybe :P

I have released our latest short film called “Fate of the Union”  - Enjoy :)
