The Expanded Story of Halo 4 with a New Cast of Characters
I took on a self-imposed challenge to create a mini-documentary for Halo 5. "A Hero Reborn" delves into the emotions and decisions that shaped the game. The entire production process lasted about a month. Overall, I conducted around 45 interviews with various team members. Eventually, I selected and included 25 of these interviews, focusing the narrative on the significant risks taken in terms of storytelling and gameplay rather than the technological aspects.
To capture the interviews and the opening sequence, I exclusively used the RED camera. Additionally, portions of the mini-documentary incorporated footage from the years 2011 to 2013. For the main title, I used Maxon Cinema 4D R16.
