Subject: Looking for actors to help me make a machinima.

I came up with a great idea for a Halo: Reach Machinima. However to accomplish it, I will need at least 9 other people to help me act out scenes. This is a very action-heavy Machinima, with quite a few blazing guns, so the away carry function will not be necessary anyway.

Just send me a message on XBL if you want to participate. My gamertag is the same as my username on this forum. We will also need to set a date for gathering on xbox for filming. If you want to know more about what I want to make, I'll be open for discussion if you're one of the actors.

Voice actors aren't really needed, but if you have a good quality microphone (better than the one on my Mac), we can talk. Forge world skills, on the other hand, are a MUST, as I need the set to look awesome.

One more requirement: All actors must be at least the rank of Major, as there is a certain armor piece I need the majority of the actors to wear that requires this rank be achieved.

To assure you that your efforts won't be wasted on a crappy video, and that I'm not some random 9 year old BK, below is a previous machinima video I have made, with my best friend. This one that I am making will be edited a lot more, but you get the idea. I had only learned the Sony Vegas basics a week prior to making this, and thus didn't know how to use the mask tool properly, but now I do. I've also gotten better at getting angles and theater work in general since this video.

In case you were wondering, the backstory was that some kid I know IRL kept spamming me with his crappy machinimas on Youtube, so I made this one to show him up and for the lulz at his reaction.

cool, i am interested but have never done 1 before. I love forge and my rank is a noble. So i will send you a message and hopefully i can help forge the maps for you.

Thanks for your help! However you won't have truly done one unless you have produced it yourself, you'll have just played in this one as a character.

I'll see if anyone else messages me by tomorrow and if so I'll try and talk with everyone that volunteered. Hopefully you'll be online tomorrow.

Also, may I ask if you can get other people to help out in this too? That would be great if you could get people.

Alright, I'll be on tomorrow and will reply to all messages.

I also have an idea for the forge world map. I want to have something that looks and feels like a city. I've seen it done in videos before so I know we could make a large-ish city.
