Ok i was thinking about what the first halo2 commercial would look like and i came up with some ideas of my own and if i saw some of them on tv i would pass out. See if you guys can make some good comercials and folow these steps
[color=red]
1. Be discriptive
2. tell about the music in the background (if any)
3. make it good
[/color]
ok here is my idea

it starts off all black and then the halo music starts (the groaning church stuff) then it flashes MC's face for about 1 second then fades back to black again then you see him jump down from a service hatch in a covanent crusier and land in a crouthcing position. fades black again and the music stops. then the fast passed halo music starts and he goes charging in to the middle of the ship killing all the covanet as he goes with dule smgs. and he runs down the hall way and it opens up into a big room like in the "uneven elephant" (what sargent johnson called the huge covanent ship in first strike i can't rember its real name) and he stops for a second at that opening and you look out and see hundreds of covanent and tanks and banshies and all that good stuff. then it flashes november 9th with the halo 2 logo, then all that cool orange clouds comes up. then it goes to the part where the xbox logo (the X) opens up and a grunt comes running out of the middle of the x sreaming something funny like "he's gona kill us all run for your life" and then he gets shot.

where is it by the way (nvidia)?

also, Officially what color is the 2 in halo 2, cause on one of the printed ads the "HALO" text is orange, but the 2 in halo 2 stays blue...

Reason, cause i want to make a decoration for my room... the big 2 and the weird lil halo around it...

My commercial i must say would be a copy of yours...

Mine would be just a simple one, you see the Earth from the moon, and the Gregorian Chant ( church chating thing ) goes, and in a much used fashion, the screen fades and it says "Fight for Her" , then it goes to that screen of the orange clouds and the H2 symbol. The same thing as the one on the clip board on the POA.

Mine would be a heart beating sound with a black screen. With every beat, a picture of the game would come up. The heart beat would get faster and then from the first halo 2 trailer the scream of when he left the docking bay when come in over the beats. When the scream stops and it goes into the groaning, u see the Halo 2 sign fade in with November 9th and the picture of the earth being attacked in the backround. That would make me faint if i saw that.

Mine would definitly include oart of Halo in it. First by showing the MC flying away in the longsword with Halo blown up. It would have the main page music goin on (that chant somebody mentioned, cause that sounds awesome in slower parts of the game). It would go all the way to the part of the MC sayin "No, I think were just starting (or beggining I forget)". Then of course, I would have Earth in its bombarded state surrounded by hundreds of covie ships. The last thing you would see would be the frigate the MC and everybody is heading to Earth. The ship would slowly go past the screen, and would start fading out after the name of the ship passed by. It would fade to black, and then say something like "On November 9th, are you ready to do your duty?" (this would be in text). And then the Halo 2 logo (orange background and blue logo) from E32004 would come in. And thats it. Damn, I wanna make this advertisement now!

i kinda made one through a powerpoint presentation and many screenshots but id like to change it

Music-the halo2 music from the trailer where he jumps from the spaceship to the covie ship

1st section- briefly summarizes halo with cool cinamatics, so like pictures of battles and the flood, the finishing with the destruction of halo and focuses in on the longsword

2nd section-"one spartan cyborg saved the galaxy from Halo"
little short movies of space travel and him running through the shiplike in the previouslyy mentioned trailer. throughout the short clips insert the words "Now" "The MAster Chief" "Must" "Save" "earth" then showing a video of earth, with fire covering the surface, anf covenant ships blasting it, little dramatic music in the background and get the people angry that their planet is being destroyed

3rd Section-alot of videos and clips of master chief kicking covy ass on earth, blah blah blah, explosions, yadda yadda yadda, plasma grenading a grunt, yadda yadda yadda, rocketing some brutes, yadda yadda yadda

then at the very end, a video of one pissed off prophet, camera circling him, gets to the back of him, zooms out, shows the MCs leg in shadows and has to be dark, just the legs outline, then a gun loads a bullet into the chamber, blackness and.....
HALO 2
November 9th, Earth is in your hands

[color=white] I have an idea, cut scene that starts with a reflection from MC's visor.

In the reflection of Mc's visor, you see a grunt with its back turned, and then he jumps in surprise and quickly turns then it goes black and you here a mean sounding melee. followed by a plasma nade explosion and elite screaming...

Then Halo 2 logo appears and fades out.

Ooo! I gots one! Okay here is how it goes....

Two covenant elites with carbines are walking down a hallway when suddenly it gets all black from someone killing the lights and some elite speak goes on when suddenly a thud is heard and then carbine fire goes off all over the place and you can see MC for a splite secound every plasma shot being fired as he brutally kills the elites in hand to hand combat. And then it goes all dark... And then it says this on the screen. And you thought what went bumb in the night was scary... then it has the Halo 2 logo.

Hah..
I got one..
Its a ground shot of all these shells and the camera is moving along the ground following the shells and then after like 5 seconds you see bodies...and then you hear gunshots..Grunt runs arcoss the screen and a few tracer rounds follows..you hear foot steps and then the Halo 2 sign comes up.
Then you see a clip fall out of the battle rifle.

Nice idea, Rift.
I got one. How about First you hear the music come on (Rememberance) Then you see the beginning movie for abit from the E3 demo, until Srgt. Johnson says "Were goin in", then you see earth, and the words "Nov. 9" pop up, then you see MC shooting some grunts, and jackals, then you see words on a black screen again saying "Fight for..." then you see the part of the trailer where you can see explosions on earth, then it says on a black screen "..your homeplanet" Then it just see MC throwing the 'nade from the E3 demo, and Cortana saying "Betcha cant stick it", then "Your on", then is says "Halo 2"

Oh, and for the ship that you were mentioning (first post) Its the Unyeilding Heirophant
