FAN FILMS
Blunt Brothers Productions reanimated their hilarious 32-second summary of the Master Chief’s original adventure just in time for the global launch of Halo: Campaign Evolved. If you don’t have an hour to watch the official cutscene showcase, dedicate half a minute to this cheeky (and more-or-less-accurate) abbreviation.
Raikdas imagines the chilling moment in which the Master Chief discovers the body of Marvin Morbuto, the famed Library speed-runner introduced in Halo: The Flood and protagonist of the forthcoming Halo: Parasite’s Wake.
Albert Cho scanned, rigged, and animated a Master Chief figure to create this gorgeous slow-motion cinematic in Unreal Engine 5. See behind-the-scenes details on X!
LoreWithWes offers a paean to that most tragic Covenant warrior, Zuka ‘Zamamee, whose efforts to kill the Master Chief during the events of Halo: Combat Evolved were foiled by increasingly absurd circumstances. (This video features footage from Drksteel’s “Zuka ‘Zamamee Campaign” mod, which we featured back in February in Mod Minute!)
Halo gets tiny in masterbabybell’s adorably petite isometric machinima captured in Halo: Campaign Evolved’s machinima mode.
Animator LeonardAN69 served up a musical cartoon tribute to Halo: Campaign Evolved, featuring an ensemble of heroes and allies dancing to The Warp Zone’s Halo 4-era hit.
Heroes of the Hour
To celebrate the global launch of Halo: Campaign Evolved, we’ve collected a veritable “flood” of incredible artwork from the Halo community that features the mighty Master Chief, the ever-plucky Cortana, and the inimitable Sgt. Major Avery Johnson (not to mention a few ne’er-do-wells from the Sacristan Order).
Sparts and Crafts
Feast your eyes on toy photography, illustrations, paintings, custom models, and all other manner of IRL artistry!
