I have a question about the possibility of using my creative abilitys to create movies of Halo!
I really got the grip of that Softimage program from Valve and after i created some pictures i thought of making some animation movies of Halo based on Fall of reach and maybe other books, but i got some wondering.
Do i have to make a deal with Bungie before i start making such movies, or will it just be considered as another fanart?
I am not looking for attention!
My actions is purely in the act of creativity to make animation movies out of the greatest game the world has ever known!

I believe its okay...as long as you don't use it to turn a profit. Plus, many of use would love to see it. Red vs. Blue does it...I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem.

It would be great if it was that easy!
I already know how to make backgrounds and texture, so if i study some more on SoftImage i think i will get a couple of episodes by fall or at least winter!
I really hope it is fine by Bungie to let me do this?
And i`m not a 13 year old kid looking for attention!
I`m a 17 year old man looking for a oppertunity to create animation movies out of the greatest game in the world!
It is just artistic!

-S

What the ninja said.

And, as was pointed out before, you don't have to ask Bungie permission to make fan creations. Have fun. =)

The VALVe version of Softimage is extremely limited. You can't export files from it.

Well i was thinking of if i can`t make a 3D Halo movie with SoftImage, then i will use my second best creative skill and draw a Halo movie, but i want to go for a 3D animation!

Try Blender - it's free!
Actually, rather ironically there was a whole article about CGI movie making in this month's PC Format. They recommend using Maya PLE (free from the Maya website), but you get a watermark on everything you make. For characters there's Character FX and Milkshape, for terrain there's Terragen, and for patches (so your models don't have hard edges) there's Hamapatch.

Hey! No, you don't need to ask permission to make fan art. It would be nice, though, to link to bungie.net, and to explain that your site is merely a fansite.

I know what it links to, and it's basically the same thing. You can find anything with google.
