I’m actually not sure if you can call something with live action video “machinima,” but that really doesn’t matter, because this Halo:Reach fan film is just plain awesome no matter what you call it.
Alan Marsala and Chance McManus created this mashup of live action footage with animations from Bungie’s Xbox 360 shooter to create a 6-minute film that once pays loving tribute to the Halo franchise and makes you laugh with its over-the-top acting, dialogue (and hairdos).
Sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy some tasty double kills…
