God, I want to play Halo. Sometimes, fantasizing about going to California this summer and starting my Halo machinima (see below) is all that keeps me going.
On a different, though related, note, I'm participating in Script Frenzy (http://www.scriptfrenzy.org/) this April. It's similar to NaNoWriMo, but instead of a 50,000 word novel, the goal is a 100 page script. It actually sounds easier, since a.) my 50,000 word novel came to about 110 pages, and b.) there are probably all kinds of weird formatting differences with scripts that will beef up the length. I'll be using the Script Frenzy motivation to make some episodes (or maybe just one? I'm not sure how long a script for one episode should be) for my upcoming Halo machinima.
Hey, I haven't mentioned that yet, have I? I'll be starting a Halo machinima (hopefully; plans may change) once I get over to California this summer. Which I'm also doing. Yeah. It'll be a pretty serious machinima, about a guy named Xander. It won't take place in the Halo universe, which will give me a lot more freedom to do with the plot what I will. I won't reveal too much about it here, but I've got a pretty developed idea for how the first season will go. Sadly, it may not get published for a long while, since there will have to be a break between making the first and second seasons when my relatives who I'm doing this with move to Switzerland. (I'll miss you guys! Even though you're in California now.)
