Very impressive, I'll check it out.

[SlipperyHammer]

*Update*

We've added another short video, this time showing of a bit of the workflow from this episode.

Hope you enjoy !

[Snook]

Looks great, I'm looking forward to watching it.

[Rococo Feathersworth]

Looking forward to it.

Since you guys are rendering, might want to consider having a 3 spot setup or enabling ambient occlusion, if you have the spare time and processing power. It might not be the most realistic things to do, but it'll accentuate the form of the figures you are depicting for the benefit of the audiences. It is also a typical setup in the cut scenes in the game itself, meaning, besides primary lighting, it has additional soft light or ambient occlusion illuminating the forms in the shades, and another light (rim lighting) enhancing the silhouette of the figures.

Unfortunently we've gone a bit far in the rendering process to add that. But we'll have that in mind for the future.
But cheers for the advice ! Let us know if you have any more ideas or suggestions.

*Update* Changed the main picture, we've added two more people to the squad.

[SnakeEyes]

I'd watch this. Keep going guys

[MCB280]

Looking forward to it.

Added the video "Dancing away". Hope you all like it .
(And yes, we got a bit inspired by the "Dance Effect" thread here on this forum )

This had to be by far the best ME3 machinima I've ever seen, and it's only episode 1!

(Although as for the banshee corpses we do see one in the ardat yakshi monastery, just a little detail that can be ignored)

Certainly this is very well done, and I looked all the details, they certainly looked great, even more how you guys seemed ot actually give the pitch and tone to the voice to fit the species it was on

[Sir Ulrich Von Lichenstien]

That was awesome, looking forward to future episodes

[Edolix]

Really enjoyed that

[CptBomBom00]

I liked it.

[TheEgoRaptor]

Loved the ending scene with the Banshee. It's what I always thought the reapers would be like, a horror movie, not like they are int he game itself. Keep it up.

Maybe add an N7 Slayer as the team's Biotic support?

Edit: The only problem I personally have with it is nothing big eally, I've just been used to hearing a gruff and 'tough as nails' voice for Krogans, not European, but I know it is something you have no control over and I'm still enjoying it so far anyway :innocent:

that was really cool, i loved the ghost ship feel, you only got that from one mission in me2, the more horror-aspect of the universe. some of the dialogue and animations were a bit stilted and languid (though that really suits the geth characters as it makes them seem less biological), but overall it was really well done, i am eager to see more.

[spudspot]

Great!

[Dark Satris]

extremely well done, but you should speed up the animations just a pinch.(also, look into the stiffness of characters, that drell should've moved his hand a little bit when he waved it)

but extremely well done overall, cant wait till episode 2

[AzuraAngellus]

Good work so far, but I agree with the above poster. The animations could do with a bit work, I found it to be a bit slow in terms of how everything moved.(Not plot/story)

Keep it up, can't wait to see action in the second episode.

[MCB280]

Loved it specially the ending "OW MY EARS!". I hope there are more coming soon.
