Yea it's in Garry's Mod but some of animations are from Half Life 2. We can see it in animation when Strider dies. that death animation is From HL2 EP 2
I loved everything about this movie. The cinematography, the lighting, the sound, all of it. I especially loved the Stalker scene; I thought it showed how cold and lifeless they are. 15/10 Great job.
The sad thing is that this will garner so little attention for how well it is made. Especially when you consider this was made in FUCKIN GARRYSMOD. Every shot is just so beautifully put together i cant even begin to talk. The only thing i felt personally hurt it at times is the reliance on NPCs rather then a custom animations but considering the scope and how well everything else is put together it can easily be forgiven.
Some may have been friends, but I think when they said actors, they meant the Gmod tool which allows you make NPCs carry out a selected number of actions Essentially a scripted event tool. It can be used to make a combine soldier npc sit in cover, then pop out, take a shot, and then move in towards the camera. The addon is called something along the lines of “npc actors”
This is incredibly beautiful thing you've got here. It's seen that you've put your soul in this project, trying to properly translate your look on the Half-Life 2 universe model. It is a shame that so few people see this video. I guess I'll try to spread it as much as i can, showing this to more and more people. By the way, a question. How long it took you to make this masterpiece?
Thanks so much for the kind words! Numbers are really nothing to me, as long as it reaches the few who do appreciate it. This took about 3 and a half months following the script and breakdown.
@@adamortiz4893 So it turn out as yet another generic low effort post apocalyptic series? No thanks. Community have SFM, it can make wonders. Like this one.
@@edrrrk It would be easy, just show portal storms over every major country and show all the thousands of ships coming out of them. There was no way Humanity could have beat them.
Absolutely outstanding work. You have managed to thrive in the limitations set upon you like very few machinima films have managed before. This is the new "War of the Servers" for sure. 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much for the kinds words! I know War of the Servers will always have that by-gone charm to it that can't be matched. I still believe you hold the title to pushing the limits of Garrysmod with "Earthbound" that was unbelievable upon my first viewing years ago, and still that.
This is probably one of the greatest Gmod Machinima's out there, and definitely the best for Half-life. Amazing work for something done in 3 months. You sure do know how to work Gmod.
Wow, all I can say is “thank you”. I’ve said it once before, but I’ll say it again. You are one hell of a film maker. Your style, your sense of scope in the cinematography. It just sticks with me. You don’t just inspire, but you influence me. I’ll never come close to what you have done here. The best half life 2 machinima. Period. Thank you so much for this. The message at the end of the credits really hit home. Best wishes
I still think you should give yourself some more credit. You've got so much down already. It just takes time, patience and little bit of sickness haha. I think you'd enjoy picking up a pdf of the "Master Shot" book series. Even though this is aimed at live-action film-making, it sometimes helps treating the digital environment as a live action shoot seeing how the camera behaves in the real world as well as blocking out a scene. It helped me define a style on live-action sets, so I've learned to translate it here. Thank you for kind words!
Gmodcinematic thanks man. I’ll look into it. You’ve definitely just set the bar again in HL story telling. I’d love to chat it up some time about filmmaking, Source, and some HL. May this film stand the test of time.
It is pretty incredible that a single, talented person can make short films that pack in more character development, outstanding camera work, and emotion into 30-odd minutes than some big studios with hundreds of staff can in multi-million dollar TV series nowadays... outstanding machinima right here, and the fact you managed to tell such an engaging story with no dialog outside of a few run-of-the-mill voicelines and have such incredible visuals from a game engine that's older than some people who've played Garry's mod is nothing short of amazing. My only complaint is that this doesn't have at least a couple million views.
This is a very impressive and unexpected piece of machinima. You have managed to cleverly introduce the roster of characters and work them around in a story. I thoroughly enjoyed the dark atmosphere that seems to be used so rarely in movies these days; it works really well with the theme of revolution and brings memories from first playthroughs of Half-Life 2. Really loved the wide shots such as sewers view on the city, sometimes I wish you used wider focal lenght than 50mm, for some moments it was disorienting to see closeups 98% of the time. Anyway it was a great surprise after all those years. A lot of people moved on and forgot about half-life but perhaps that might ignite the interest once again and we will see some great movies once more :)
Yeah, after seeing the trailer for the new fan made mod to be released on steam I needed to see this. I thought halflife was done for when I saw "Hunt the freeman"
It feels like a demonstration just to show the level of cinematography and visuals they can achieve. In all honesty, I wouldn't have understood this without rrading the description. But just watching it still captivates me. It's quite... beautiful.
Just Using the original tools,the skillful craftsmen can still make magnificent masterpiece. So here comes "Haven" , what a gorgeous Half-Life 2 Machinima....
By God this is incredible! At first I thought it was SFM, but like with Anticitizen One it was just good lighting, map editing, weather control, NPC command, and a lot of effort and faith in machinima to prove that Gmod isn't dead! Well done, now go buy yourself a taco cause you earned it! And I'm sure that Kitty0706 and any other deceased and/or abandoned machinima maker would be pleased to have seen something beautiful like this!
33:14 this little section is a masterpiece of animation. Please make more films like this, I have a lot of praise for it. Also the music. OOOH the music. Simply amazing all around. Make more
This is absolutely outstanding. The visuals and dark atmosphere really are the ones that make this shine. 5 minutes in and I'm already hooked. If I had to provide some critique, it would be the very large lack of dialogue. Dialogue helps us connect with the characters MUCH more and really supports the story, and this has very little dialogue, but mainly no dialogue at all. Other than that, this deserves a lot more views. Amazing job!
My god, this video is absolutely incredible, I was glued to the seat watching this entire thing. I was absolutely blown away by some of the scenes you managed to create, the city scapes must of taken hours to create, and for so many short clips. The bird cage scene must of been tricky to build, without the proper Garry's Mod tools, it looks a lot like you used Stacker for it. The scenes with G-Man were incredibly well short, the short pan backwards from Angela to reveal the briefcase caught me off guard. How did you make the interior of the APC? Did you build it yourself or was it just a prop you found? I realize the lack of voice actors must of made it really hard to convey the story from the characters, but the body language and gestures were spot on and you really got a sense of what was going on. The campfire scene with Padder had me on the edge of my seat, I was expecting some Predator shit to go on, Padder aint no Schwarzenegger I'll tell you that, so it was relief to see it was only a couple of zombies. Seeing Angela get Trans-humanized reminded me a lot of the time she got her arms amputated and replaced with cybernetic ones, just to fuck with her mental health, because the higher up who ordered it had a sick sense of humor. I absolutely have to say I loved this entire film, beginning to end. It's such a wonderful fucking momento to take away from all the years we've spent playing HL2RP together. You're doing fucking great things Dan, there'll come a you'll be making big budget films, you'll be the next J.J Abrams, you even got the lense flare down in some of these shots. From one retired HL2RP player to another, I salute you for this piece of art. -Padder
TheSeriousSoul, *soldiers are not cyborgs, they are synths* since it is combine's single unit of their population, also regular soldier shares a resemblance with a confirmed human synth entity from Raising The Bar. She had synth arms (they are non-organic, but can grow, replicate and self-repair like every synth) and probably supposed to have zero personality and be a part of their collective mind, but whatever... since this film is not in canon with HL, but still it was very good)
Uh, I'm very much aware of that fact, I was just referring to a previous experience myself and a couple of me and Gmodcinematic's old Roleplaying buddies had happen to us. Seeing Angela get Trans-humanized *reminded me* a lot of the time But thanks I guess.
So... this was all based on a roleplay session from an old HL2RP? And you were playing the old guy, and someone else was playing the girl, and now it's been translated somewhat into machinama form?
8:05 Is that a scoped SVT-40? Pretty accurate model. It makes sense lore-wise too, since city 17 is in Eastern Europe and there would still be a lot of surplus SVT-40s there, due to WW2. Realistically, a lot of the rebels would be using cold war era Soviet equipment tbh, and I think it fits the aesthetic of the game well.
I think the reason why many people are English/Western there is because combine just gathered all the survivors and created a melting pot in the last remaining urban centre. What I don’t understand is why don’t we have Soviet Weapons in the actual game. Like AK-47s (that survived till the year billion trillion according to Doctor Who). Instead we get a not very popular MP-7. And that weird rocket launcher, they could’ve added an RPG-7 instead or additionally,
@@scudb5509 Just because the game is set in Eastern Europe doesn't mean everything would be Russian. AK-47s (Or more appropriately, AKM) were actually planned in the beta, they were simply cut for simplicity or time. Though, aside from the Outland groups, the rebels would likely not be using old pre-combine weapons for the most part due to the fact everything they have is stolen from the Combine. I imagine the Combine took nearly every documented and found weapon in the city and likely trashed them for parts. Considering the Combine in Half Life 2's vision is supposed to be top-of-the-line military, the MP7 makes sense. It was made for counter-terrorist specialities, so it also makes sense in the hands of the combine forces to be deployed in case of civil uprisings, and notice how it's only seen whenever there is a anti-citizen threat. The rocket launcher simply can't be an RPG-7 for the fact it is wire-guided, so that's settled.
Volkolov I wasn’t talking about replacing weapons. I was talking about extra weapons. The invasion happened in the 90s or Early 2000s. Weapon dumps were all over the Eastern Bloc, enough ammunition to destroy the world more than once, millions of AKs and RPGs. Wars were going on in Yugoslavia and Moldova, neighbours to Romania. People would definitely hide them, for future use. Combine could not possibly find everything. Besides, why produce something, when you already have a lot already. Waist of energy. MP-7s were available in limited quantities back then. Arm the elites with MP-7s, but leave the normal soldiers with AKs. And AKs would’ve been symbolic to have. It’s not only a weapon, it’s a symbol of the revolution, a symbol of rebels,insurgents and terrorists.
@@scudb5509 it was probably a matter of gameplay over lore, having 5 different assault rifles wouldnt make sense in an HL game. they probably choose the mp7 because it fit the ruined future aesthetic
I have been following you for a long time now and this is another beautiful masterpiece, when ever I see your work I’m a always so shaken. I simply love this.
Can I just say how wonderfully crafted 33:10 to 34:50 is? I mean this entire work is phenomenal and DESERVES a bigger audience but this little segment is oddly powerful to me. It's a visualization of your life flashing before your eyes. You can easily imagine yourself in her position.
Hands down probably the best animation I’ve ever seen, you beat companies that do these type of animations. And the fact you made a movie basically instead of a 3 minute video. Congrats dude, you are certainly one very talented animator. 10/10
Oh my god, I think this is one of, if not the best film/machinima I ever have, and ever will have seen. It is criminally underrated and needs as much recognition as it can get. The fact that it was made with just GMod and a few editing programs is impossible to comprehend. True art.
I felt the same It had that Ridley Scott Dennis Villeneuve feeling to it. Shit I wouldn't be surprised if they took inspiration from Hans Zimmers music for the soundtrack.
I can't believe that you made this... astounding masterpiece in Garry's Mod. I firstly thought it was made in Blender (Yes, Blender), then found out it was made in Garry's Mod and it had made me *stunned*! Your work is incredible, and deserve more attention from the community, good luck!
A fan made Half-Life animation that's 40 minutes long? This is like a dream come true! Homework will have to wait ;p EDIT: I finished watching it, and while I have some problems with it, for example I'm not really sure if there is any story (lack of dialogues doesn't help) and things like the guy living in the woods, and yet wasting precious ammo on pigeons and zombies are kind of funny, and some elements of violence seemed overdone and unnecessary, the G-Man is there apparently for no real reason, and I don't see the purpose of that combine soldier sub plot, I must say that I appreciate the effort and the fact that it's so long.
4 minutes in and I'm ALREADY amazed. For a first, the animation is so incredibly smooth, and with 11,000 hours in Gmod, I have NO clue how you did all this. I like to think of the vortigaunt poker scene as not just a parent and child moment, but more of that the bigger man will not overreact over simple things such as losing a poker game, and that's why the little one freaks out as such. But that's just me, I'm no english teacher. The concept of Gman making her swap with a stalker to a combine soldier is such an interesting one, and it shows just how powerful Gman is. The ACP firing just a few rounds, causing devastation through-out the group could symbolize how everything can change so fast. I personally know that well. It's a great way to bring up the suspense of the movie, truly a good moment. This is truly an achievement of an animation, cinematography, creativity, and everything it could and should be, for 2018 none-the-less. I thank you for making this purely so we could see it.
Man... as a "failed" gmod animator, I can totally say that this video deserves at least 10 million views. I can't even begin to imagine the time and effort you put into this project. Congratulations man! I hope you the best luck in the future!
This is the best I have seen from any Machinima, it's incredible. After finishing, I just stared at the screen because I could not take in how good it is. You deserve more subscribes and views, this is top quality content. Your filmmaking is outstanding. The quality, scenes, cinematography, all of it is amazing. This is the kind of content I'd see in a cinema.
Immensely beautiful work, Mr. Schetter. Hats off to you and your team, as well as everybody else who made this possible. It is absolutely fantastic how you managed to capture the dark, oppressive atmosphere with almost no words spoken. Someone with Twitter should make sure, that this gets to Marc Laidlaw at the very least. When the credits started rolling, I just sat there, in my chair, silently reflecting on what I just saw. A huge Thank you for doing this. I still believe in Half-life.
Jesus this was simply amazing I love how detailed the entire movie was and very little was said you made it so words didn't have to be said for you to know what's going on very well done
Absolutely amazing production. It felt as if I was watching a full length movie. And the fact you made this all in Garry's Mod is just incredible. Hope to see more from you in the future!
I'm impressed and entertained. Very artistic, really hooks into that thrilling atmosphere of HL2, interesting way of storytelling. As others have said, it's great to know that skilled people such as yourself are still doing such creative things with HL.
This is so amazing how it was made in Garrys mod with all the lighting and sound effects. Great work, i liked the part when the camera zooms in on the V, I hope to see more in the future
My General Breakdown: Again across the citadel, Judgement Day arrives. A wavier is raised to all citizens, which may be implying a raider coup/base has been located. Huddled inside a warehouse, resistance members coupled up ready to face the onslaught of Combine Civil Protection, meanwhile. The initial surge of bullets crashes into an unfortunate rebel standing in front of the weak barricade. Civilians outback use a back-door to escape whilst the remaining resistance hold their lines, they are soon overwhelmed, eventually evacuating themselves. One resistance member attempts to halt the inevitable assault, but gets terminated via Shotgun to the torso and was forced to be left behind, injured and left to rot. G-man acknowledges this. And confronts her later. A mild foggy afternoon at the citadel, the body’s from the raid were being counted. A small handmade sedan is seen driving down a isolated forest, soon coming to a halt near a valley of unusable cars. An effigy made out a human CP corpse was fashioned as a warning. A rebel seen moving into his Cabin. Hunting for his next meal. A coup of birds catches his eye, he’s thinking of having a nice dinner, one being caught and killed mercilessly. Whilst cooking his reward, It appears that the headcrab zombies are still persistent in hunting, no matter how the setting presents itself. As a fast-zombie is heard sneaking up in the rebel. He arms SMG, and guns down 2 infected before running through the cornfields, realising that his spot was vulnerable to more ambushes. He crosses through the forest out back into towards a small cabin. A small radio station, long abandoned, only used for broadcasting temporal messages. Sending out a message towards the rebels within the confines of City-17 attempting to find refuge. A tired and exhausted rebel is seen sleeping, he is quickly alerted by the presence of the broadcast from the radio station, the co-ordinates to a refuge, a safe haven. He kits up in his Rebel clothing, and moves into a small rebel hideout. Two vortigaunts are seen playing cards. The plan was to be discussed among the rebels. The woman killed during the evacuation is seen, met by the G-man. Her body was taken and was transformed into what seems to be a failed combine transition, she awakens into her trans-human body. Rising, as the stalker moves in with his suffering life of slavery. The Combine Solider comes across cages, filled with drones disguised as birds. Next to it, there is a small backpack, perhaps filled with suit energy or other resources. He stumbles across a propaganda room, observing the brain-washing that all other combine ranks endure. He makes a dash across the hallways, seeming to know a lot of things about the citadel. He observes a highly durable Combine APC. And sneaks into it with the intent of escape. The CP’s guarding it are alerted and attempt to halt the APC, their attempts are proven futile due to the APCs resistant armour plates. Combine Elites open fire into the APC, proving futile as the pulse cannon obliterates the bridge. Realising that the only escape is via an shoddy repair job. He dives into one of the canals around the citadel, forcing his way out of the APC before drowning. A group of citizens is seen filling up a train-cart of supplies. Before cutting back towards the depressing background, the ‘broken’ combine is seen as a disgrace to the Citizens, and is promptly attacked whilst being observed by the G-man. He is abused, but with the extensive combat training injected into the solider and the help of a Blinding Camera Drone, he dispatches them before evacuating with haste, away from the approaching CPs. A group of rebels are seen filling up a tran-carts full of ammo and other resources, whilst another observes and scans the layers of the citadel, he is spotted and scanned by a Combine Spy Bird, operated by what seems to be an elite. A Dark Charge is shot at the rebel, it is seen flying towards him with increasing speeds, with only a narrow dodge and a area full of debris, they were essentially walking beacons. Evacuated to another hideout in his sleep, the combine seen making their approach. The rebels, armed to the teeth, still plot an ambush in order to play it as safe as physically possible. As the first CP rounds a small wall, he is subsequently obliterated via shotgun. The LMGs fire up as the APCs make a futile defence against the relentless on-slaught of hellfire the rebels unleash. The civilians held up in another warehouse are announced a escape plan. Whilst a strider is deployed, taking out a Cross-Bow rebel. A Dune Buggy was dispatched, with one of the rebels unleashing a rocket upon the strider, destroying it. The Rouge Combine Soldier seems aware of the escape plan, and is plotting to steal a Combine Helicopter, the Rebels at the final gate leading to the exterior of the City, hold off a few units, before a combine APC was sent out and was ordered to terminate the means of escape, catching 3 allies in the process, destroying the exit console. Before everyone could be arrested, tortured or killed by the Combine dispatched. The Rouge Combine destroys the APC and the Combine with it. Blasting open City 17s heavily armoured gates, before clearing out the CPs that weren’t killed during the initial ambush. All the civilians rush to the forest, seeking the Safe Haven they were promised. Eventually, the co-ordinates were reached, everyone was safe. There’s still work to do, and our Rouge Combine has a job meeting to attend.
This is grossly underrated. I will be sharing this promptly. This is my favorite Gmod/SFM thing ever. Seriously. (I know you didn't use SFM. It still beats out any SFM I've seen.)
Сопротивление получает пиздов от альянса и баба в процессе погибает. Потом показывают как живет мужик в лесу в одиночку. Потом показывают какой-то сход сопротивления. Потом показывают приказ альянса на аугментацию той бабы которая погибла. Её делают комбайном, но у неё остается память и она сьебывается из башни. Потом какая-то мутная херня с сопротивлением и альянсом. Потом баба крадет вертолет, бомбит альянс побеждающий сопротивление и они сбегают. А баба попадает в рай (или стазис джимена)
Джимен своими способностями сохраняет разум девушки, для того чтобы она в конце исполнила свою роль по спасению повстанцев и помогла им выбраться отсюда. (Тоже самое что и с гордоном)
1- I like it when the rebels arent nerfed and show what they are actually capable of. 2- Haha blastdoor001c that opens with a valve 3- This is visually incredible
My God... It's been some time since I scanned the community again for HL content. I'm a complete nut for this stuff, at least used to be, it consumed me. This is a real good rendition of the kind of content I wanted to make, albeit mine was only a summary of the HL universe storyline, 7HW & all. There's very few quality productions like this, I've spent over 14 years ruminating on my own project, saving the best mods, concepts, sounds, demos, & others' content. Gigabytes of stuff. Always too busy & never able to commit to manifesting it. Every now and again a gem like this pops up, don't know why it took me over 2 years to find, and it's incredibly emotional to watch. Not just from personal regret and waste, but you actually make me feel the novelty of the game universe again. Canon or not, this shit is phenomenally mesmerizing, and built with detailed craft in every shot. Thank you, man.
Breathtaking. I had no idea that this sort of film even existed until now. I would definitely like to see more, if it exists. Personally I play G-Mod, recently with little vigor. Now I may try something like this work of art if I ever have the time and inspiration (not to mention the patience) readily accessible. Excellent story as well. I am no expert, but I believe that this 40-minute film is definitely worthy of evolving into a 2-hour blockbuster action movie. Most impressive and excellent work!
Epic and very atmospheric! Half-Life 2 is not just a game. It is the whole world. It is the whole life. We all are waiting till that number 3 comes out. In a meantime we can enjoy that beautiful work made by a talented individuals. Thank you. It was amazing!
Ziii Mr. Я бы так не сказал... Работа хорошая, но сюжет... Комбайны никогда не предают Альянс, а что мы видем? Комбайны на половину роботы. От человека у них только тело и разум, а все остальное от заложенных кибер-способностей. Например сила и выносливость, у них нет чувств, таких как, страха или сострадания, так же, они не чувствуют боли. Все о чем они могут думать, это только о том, какую информацию им заложили советники, и только этой информации они будут придерживатся. Тогда какого хрена, в видео нам показывают, как киборг спасает людей? Киборг блять!!! Где тут логика? Это тоже самое, если терминатор T-800 будет спасать Сару Коннор, вместо того, чтобы ее убить (ечли ты понимаешь о чем я). Если честно, сюжет из видео никак не совпадает со вселенной халвы.
Не смогут. Даже если взять комбайна в плен чтобы перепрограмирывать, ученым придется добратся до его мозга, но для этого они должны снять его противогаз, а если его снять - комбайн просто умрет, т.к. противогаз фильтрует им особый воздух, от которого они питаются. Ученые ни как не смогут перепрограмирывть комбайна.
Не существует слов, чтобы описать чувства, которые вызывает эта машинима. Собственный стиль автора и его собственный взгляд на Half-Life придает шарм. Персонажами не было сказано почти ни слова за все 40 минут (Исключение - Доктор Брин) это очень умный и невероятно сильный ход, ведь в таком случае мы занимаем свою голову не словами, а повествованием через визуал (привет, Тартаковски). История в сеттинге вполне банальная и короткая, если рассказать ее словами, но передана очень драматично и под необычным углом. 11/10 посмотрела бы еще раз.

This was made in Garry's Mod?
Jesus, I thought it was SFM.
Yea it's in Garry's Mod but some of animations are from Half Life 2. We can see it in animation when Strider dies. that death animation is From HL2 EP 2
With enough practice, you could make some pretty decent animations in Garry's Mod.
Adam Douglas-Grindrod if it’s popsicle it’s possible
Yep, took me years to get to a "decent" point in animations though. Takes time.
Yea it would take a while to do this but yea Garry's mod had some good fog mods and all that
All these characters are part of Gordon’s family as they do not say a single word.

Enter to talk
(Is joke)
The best comment of the year.
I liked the comment but then figured out liking it would give it a like count of 70 so I didnt like it so it could stay at 69
To be fair, Advisors don’t talk either. Not with words anyway. So I’m reporting you to the server admin for breaking the RP immersion...
But man do they dream about cheese...
This almost feels like Half Life 2's Beta setting. So dark and unnerving. This is pretty stellar.
indeed
Unnervig? Deutsch?
spot on
Half Life 2 is dark and unnerving, its style is more bright and pretty than dark and gritty, though.
I loved everything about this movie.
The cinematography, the lighting, the sound, all of it.
I especially loved the Stalker scene; I thought it showed how cold and lifeless they are.
15/10 Great job.
The sad thing is that this will garner so little attention for how well it is made. Especially when you consider this was made in FUCKIN GARRYSMOD. Every shot is just so beautifully put together i cant even begin to talk. The only thing i felt personally hurt it at times is the reliance on NPCs rather then a custom animations but considering the scope and how well everything else is put together it can easily be forgiven.
@Bork Bork, probably because gmod machinimas got a bad reputation...
Most of them are not npcs. They are actors. So its like a real film studio.
100k views later.. and I'm sure it will continue to rise
no its a mod i think there were like 3 friends and the other yeah were better npcs with commands
Some may have been friends, but I think when they said actors, they meant the Gmod tool which allows you make NPCs carry out a selected number of actions
Essentially a scripted event tool. It can be used to make a combine soldier npc sit in cover, then pop out, take a shot, and then move in towards the camera.
The addon is called something along the lines of “npc actors”
Almost no words spoken and yet so much emotion conveyed, you've done an amazing job and its even more shocking that you made it in Gmod
This is incredibly beautiful thing you've got here. It's seen that you've put your soul in this project, trying to properly translate your look on the Half-Life 2 universe model.

Thanks so much for the kind words! Numbers are really nothing to me, as long as it reaches the few who do appreciate it. This took about 3 and a half months following the script and breakdown.
Gmodcinematic WOW!Did you make this work alone or with friend....?If you say alone.....I going.....
[TRIGGERED]
THREE MONTHS? I was thinking maybe like 6-8 months
Umm... HL3 is cancelled, don't get your hopes up.
Genuinely phenomenal,
This representation of who and how the Gman "hires" adds so much to the image of his character.
This goes to show that half life would make a great movie if done right
more like movies, heck maybe even a HBO series , the half-life universe has so much potential.
@@NotClosedMinded I think it would be better as a show
@@adamortiz4893 So it turn out as yet another generic low effort post apocalyptic series? No thanks. Community have SFM, it can make wonders. Like this one.
Especially if it showed how the Combine invaded earth.

Same, it's stunning!
Yeah I just finished watching it for the first time it kicks ass!🎉
Can't believe HL2 machinimas of this caliber are coming out in 2018.
Valve has to see this.
valve got a valve in one eye and the other one is busy looking @ $$$$!!
Valve has.
Valve doesnt care about their fans and they just want money
@@Dumpsterfire95 _mone_
Gmod made a post about this telling people to watch it, so that's a step forward I guess.
Absolutely outstanding work. You have managed to thrive in the limitations set upon you like very few machinima films have managed before. This is the new "War of the Servers" for sure. 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much for the kinds words! I know War of the Servers will always have that by-gone charm to it that can't be matched. I still believe you hold the title to pushing the limits of Garrysmod with "Earthbound" that was unbelievable upon my first viewing years ago, and still that.

This is probably one of the greatest Gmod Machinima's out there, and definitely the best for Half-life.
Amazing work for something done in 3 months. You sure do know how to work Gmod.
Wow, all I can say is “thank you”. I’ve said it once before, but I’ll say it again. You are one hell of a film maker. Your style, your sense of scope in the cinematography. It just sticks with me. You don’t just inspire, but you influence me. I’ll never come close to what you have done here. The best half life 2 machinima. Period. Thank you so much for this. The message at the end of the credits really hit home. Best wishes
I still think you should give yourself some more credit. You've got so much down already. It just takes time, patience and little bit of sickness haha. I think you'd enjoy picking up a pdf of the "Master Shot" book series. Even though this is aimed at live-action film-making, it sometimes helps treating the digital environment as a live action shoot seeing how the camera behaves in the real world as well as blocking out a scene. It helped me define a style on live-action sets, so I've learned to translate it here. Thank you for kind words!
Gmodcinematic thanks man. I’ll look into it. You’ve definitely just set the bar again in HL story telling. I’d love to chat it up some time about filmmaking, Source, and some HL. May this film stand the test of time.
It is pretty incredible that a single, talented person can make short films that pack in more character development, outstanding camera work, and emotion into 30-odd minutes than some big studios with hundreds of staff can in multi-million dollar TV series nowadays... outstanding machinima right here, and the fact you managed to tell such an engaging story with no dialog outside of a few run-of-the-mill voicelines and have such incredible visuals from a game engine that's older than some people who've played Garry's mod is nothing short of amazing. My only complaint is that this doesn't have at least a couple million views.
This is a very impressive and unexpected piece of machinima. You have managed to cleverly introduce the roster of characters and work them around in a story. I thoroughly enjoyed the dark atmosphere that seems to be used so rarely in movies these days; it works really well with the theme of revolution and brings memories from first playthroughs of Half-Life 2.
Really loved the wide shots such as sewers view on the city, sometimes I wish you used wider focal lenght than 50mm, for some moments it was disorienting to see closeups 98% of the time.
Anyway it was a great surprise after all those years. A lot of people moved on and forgot about half-life but perhaps that might ignite the interest once again and we will see some great movies once more :)
Yeah, after seeing the trailer for the new fan made mod to be released on steam I needed to see this. I thought halflife was done for when I saw "Hunt the freeman"
Feels like old cyberpunk movies and anime, dark and hopeless. Great stuff. Though it`s not always clear what`s going on.
It feels like a demonstration just to show the level of cinematography and visuals they can achieve. In all honesty, I wouldn't have understood this without rrading the description.
But just watching it still captivates me. It's quite... beautiful.
Reminds me of those wierd animes where there's no central thread, just an anthology of random people and events.
This is brilliant i have no idea why this channel isn't more popular
JonahSoldier because that's youtube, they want sh*t more than gold.
because popularity and clicks are not everything
This deserves a Saxxy awards or something but damn, its so well animated.
Fun fact:
It's animated in gmod
How is this even possible to make?!
Welp you guys broke the impossible
Adam The Gaming God very good editing skills and lots of practice, I guess?
Perhaps he used some friends to help.
You think?
This is a masterpiece, I love how it manages to create a climax and show how dark but wonderful the world of Half Life is. Final score 10/10
You're talented AF. This is absolutely cinema worthy quality. Tremendous job.
Fucking Heat
Just Using the original tools,the skillful craftsmen can still make magnificent masterpiece.
So here comes "Haven" ,
what a gorgeous Half-Life 2 Machinima....
By God this is incredible! At first I thought it was SFM, but like with Anticitizen One it was just good lighting, map editing, weather control, NPC command, and a lot of effort and faith in machinima to prove that Gmod isn't dead! Well done, now go buy yourself a taco cause you earned it! And I'm sure that Kitty0706 and any other deceased and/or abandoned machinima maker would be pleased to have seen something beautiful like this!
10/10 By and far the best HL2 Fan Machinima I've seen, absolutely stunning visuals and scenes
Wow this is fucking insane, didn't expect to see a machinima this long in 2018 well done!
How to get a good computer backround:
Step 1: Pause anywhere during the final battle scene
Step 2: profit
Step 1: pause in any cinematic scene*
26:05 is straight up visual porn. Holy cow, this is amazing.

Their view of the combine in this world really makes it more immersive and scary in a way
Wow. 40 Minutes. You have all my respect for this huge work guys.
This is absolutely outstanding. The visuals and dark atmosphere really are the ones that make this shine. 5 minutes in and I'm already hooked. If I had to provide some critique, it would be the very large lack of dialogue. Dialogue helps us connect with the characters MUCH more and really supports the story, and this has very little dialogue, but mainly no dialogue at all. Other than that, this deserves a lot more views. Amazing job!
What about the vortigants? They spoke
while i can agree sometimes a mostly silent film can be great too.
I know this is an old comment, but I agree. However, I think having little to no dialogue is better than having bad dialogue or voice acting.
My god, this video is absolutely incredible, I was glued to the seat watching this entire thing.
I was absolutely blown away by some of the scenes you managed to create, the city scapes must of taken hours to create, and for so many short clips.
The bird cage scene must of been tricky to build, without the proper Garry's Mod tools, it looks a lot like you used Stacker for it.
The scenes with G-Man were incredibly well short, the short pan backwards from Angela to reveal the briefcase caught me off guard.
How did you make the interior of the APC? Did you build it yourself or was it just a prop you found?
I realize the lack of voice actors must of made it really hard to convey the story from the characters, but the body language and gestures were spot on and you really got a sense of what was going on.
The campfire scene with Padder had me on the edge of my seat, I was expecting some Predator shit to go on, Padder aint no Schwarzenegger I'll tell you that, so it was relief to see it was only a couple of zombies.
Seeing Angela get Trans-humanized reminded me a lot of the time she got her arms amputated and replaced with cybernetic ones, just to fuck with her mental health, because the higher up who ordered it had a sick sense of humor.
I absolutely have to say I loved this entire film, beginning to end.
It's such a wonderful fucking momento to take away from all the years we've spent playing HL2RP together.
You're doing fucking great things Dan, there'll come a you'll be making big budget films, you'll be the next J.J Abrams, you even got the lense flare down in some of these shots.
From one retired HL2RP player to another, I salute you for this piece of art.
-Padder
TheSeriousSoul, *soldiers are not cyborgs, they are synths* since it is combine's single unit of their population, also regular soldier shares a resemblance with a confirmed human synth entity from Raising The Bar. She had synth arms (they are non-organic, but can grow, replicate and self-repair like every synth) and probably supposed to have zero personality and be a part of their collective mind, but whatever... since this film is not in canon with HL, but still it was very good)
Okay... But the Combine Overwatch are, technically, and by definition, cyborgs.
Uh, I'm very much aware of that fact, I was just referring to a previous experience myself and a couple of me and Gmodcinematic's old Roleplaying buddies had happen to us.
Seeing Angela get Trans-humanized *reminded me* a lot of the time
But thanks I guess.
So... this was all based on a roleplay session from an old HL2RP?
And you were playing the old guy, and someone else was playing the girl, and now it's been translated somewhat into machinama form?
8:05
Is that a scoped SVT-40? Pretty accurate model. It makes sense lore-wise too, since city 17 is in Eastern Europe and there would still be a lot of surplus SVT-40s there, due to WW2.
Realistically, a lot of the rebels would be using cold war era Soviet equipment tbh, and I think it fits the aesthetic of the game well.
I think the reason why many people are English/Western there is because combine just gathered all the survivors and created a melting pot in the last remaining urban centre.
What I don’t understand is why don’t we have Soviet Weapons in the actual game. Like AK-47s (that survived till the year billion trillion according to Doctor Who). Instead we get a not very popular MP-7. And that weird rocket launcher, they could’ve added an RPG-7 instead or additionally,
@@scudb5509 Just because the game is set in Eastern Europe doesn't mean everything would be Russian.
AK-47s (Or more appropriately, AKM) were actually planned in the beta, they were simply cut for simplicity or time. Though, aside from the Outland groups, the rebels would likely not be using old pre-combine weapons for the most part due to the fact everything they have is stolen from the Combine. I imagine the Combine took nearly every documented and found weapon in the city and likely trashed them for parts. Considering the Combine in Half Life 2's vision is supposed to be top-of-the-line military, the MP7 makes sense. It was made for counter-terrorist specialities, so it also makes sense in the hands of the combine forces to be deployed in case of civil uprisings, and notice how it's only seen whenever there is a anti-citizen threat. The rocket launcher simply can't be an RPG-7 for the fact it is wire-guided, so that's settled.
Volkolov I wasn’t talking about replacing weapons. I was talking about extra weapons.
The invasion happened in the 90s or Early 2000s. Weapon dumps were all over the Eastern Bloc, enough ammunition to destroy the world more than once, millions of AKs and RPGs. Wars were going on in Yugoslavia and Moldova, neighbours to Romania. People would definitely hide them, for future use. Combine could not possibly find everything.
Besides, why produce something, when you already have a lot already. Waist of energy. MP-7s were available in limited quantities back then. Arm the elites with MP-7s, but leave the normal soldiers with AKs.
And AKs would’ve been symbolic to have. It’s not only a weapon, it’s a symbol of the revolution, a symbol of rebels,insurgents and terrorists.
@@scudb5509 it was probably a matter of gameplay over lore, having 5 different assault rifles wouldnt make sense in an HL game. they probably choose the mp7 because it fit the ruined future aesthetic
Not Freeman I mean I don’t see how an AK-47 could ruin it as well. Just 1 extra gun.
I have been following you for a long time now and this is another beautiful masterpiece, when ever I see your work I’m a always so shaken. I simply love this.
Can I just say how wonderfully crafted 33:10 to 34:50 is? I mean this entire work is phenomenal and DESERVES a bigger audience but this little segment is oddly powerful to me. It's a visualization of your life flashing before your eyes. You can easily imagine yourself in her position.

I've always wondered what a Half Life movie would look like. I didn't think it was possible. You've shown that it is, and it is amazing.
Unbelievable quality. Combines original ideas with familiar themes so well! It's an instant classic.
Hands down probably the best animation I’ve ever seen, you beat companies that do these type of animations. And the fact you made a movie basically instead of a 3 minute video. Congrats dude, you are certainly one very talented animator. 10/10

Incredible work, pouring life back into the series Valve sadly abandoned...
❤
Thanks so much ;) I believe the Half-Life universe has inspired too many for it not to still have life.
i love the music-video-like scene after the helicrash. so freaking good
Oh my god, I think this is one of, if not the best film/machinima I ever have, and ever will have seen. It is criminally underrated and needs as much recognition as it can get. The fact that it was made with just GMod and a few editing programs is impossible to comprehend. True art.
5:20 Getting big Blade Runner vibes from that score, love the inspiration!
I felt the same It had that Ridley Scott Dennis Villeneuve feeling to it. Shit I wouldn't be surprised if they took inspiration from Hans Zimmers music for the soundtrack.
My man, I am glad to see more of you, I remember subscribing to you all the way back in 2012 I think
I've stumbled upon this masterpiece only just now and heck, this is briliant!
Im amazed, thats the best half-life 2 story/animation i have ever seen,
impressive!
The part in the field where you can just hear the footsteps of the zombies approaching was genuinely terrifying.
This is just outstanding, I have no words to explain how legendary you are
It was a safe place,
a _Haven_
but the combine took it.
*They always did.*
I hope Valve sees this.
Valve see $
I can't believe that you made this... astounding masterpiece in Garry's Mod. I firstly thought it was made in Blender (Yes, Blender), then found out it was made in Garry's Mod and it had made me *stunned*! Your work is incredible, and deserve more attention from the community, good luck!
A fan made Half-Life animation that's 40 minutes long? This is like a dream come true!
Homework will have to wait ;p
EDIT:
I finished watching it, and while I have some problems with it, for example I'm not really sure if there is any story (lack of dialogues doesn't help) and things like the guy living in the woods, and yet wasting precious ammo on pigeons and zombies are kind of funny, and some elements of violence seemed overdone and unnecessary, the G-Man is there apparently for no real reason, and I don't see the purpose of that combine soldier sub plot, I must say that I appreciate the effort and the fact that it's so long.
Blue shit
BlueShit199 i saw you in bolloxed`s comment and Necrosvideos
a bomb!
ikagura I never heard of a name like that
BlueShit199 you should do a mod with your name just like runthinkshootlife
4 minutes in and I'm ALREADY amazed. For a first, the animation is so incredibly smooth, and with 11,000 hours in Gmod, I have NO clue how you did all this.
I like to think of the vortigaunt poker scene as not just a parent and child moment, but more of that the bigger man will not overreact over simple things such as losing a poker game, and that's why the little one freaks out as such. But that's just me, I'm no english teacher.
The concept of Gman making her swap with a stalker to a combine soldier is such an interesting one, and it shows just how powerful Gman is.
The ACP firing just a few rounds, causing devastation through-out the group could symbolize how everything can change so fast. I personally know that well. It's a great way to bring up the suspense of the movie, truly a good moment.
This is truly an achievement of an animation, cinematography, creativity, and everything it could and should be, for 2018 none-the-less. I thank you for making this purely so we could see it.
Gotta hand it to you, I'm seriously impressed by your ambiance and pacing skills
Man... as a "failed" gmod animator, I can totally say that this video deserves at least 10 million views. I can't even begin to imagine the time and effort you put into this project. Congratulations man! I hope you the best luck in the future!
Failed? Your animations did really well you ain’t bad they good
This is the best I have seen from any Machinima, it's incredible. After finishing, I just stared at the screen because I could not take in how good it is. You deserve more subscribes and views, this is top quality content. Your filmmaking is outstanding. The quality, scenes, cinematography, all of it is amazing. This is the kind of content I'd see in a cinema.
Immensely beautiful work, Mr. Schetter. Hats off to you and your team, as well as everybody else who made this possible. It is absolutely fantastic how you managed to capture the dark, oppressive atmosphere with almost no words spoken. Someone with Twitter should make sure, that this gets to Marc Laidlaw at the very least. When the credits started rolling, I just sat there, in my chair, silently reflecting on what I just saw. A huge Thank you for doing this.
I still believe in Half-life.
Jesus this was simply amazing I love how detailed the entire movie was and very little was said you made it so words didn't have to be said for you to know what's going on very well done
Absolutely amazing production. It felt as if I was watching a full length movie. And the fact you made this all in Garry's Mod is just incredible. Hope to see more from you in the future!

Beautiful, wonderful film! I loved the "silent movie" style. Pure atmosphere and all the emotions being told through character expressions..
I'm impressed and entertained. Very artistic, really hooks into that thrilling atmosphere of HL2, interesting way of storytelling. As others have said, it's great to know that skilled people such as yourself are still doing such creative things with HL.
This is so amazing how it was made in Garrys mod with all the lighting and sound effects. Great work, i liked the part when the camera zooms in on the V, I hope to see more in the future
"This is for all those who still believe. In machinima and in Half-Life."
Oh you bet I still do. Beautifully executed HL movie right there.
My General Breakdown:
Again across the citadel, Judgement Day arrives. A wavier is raised to all citizens, which may be implying a raider coup/base has been located. Huddled inside a warehouse, resistance members coupled up ready to face the onslaught of Combine Civil Protection, meanwhile. The initial surge of bullets crashes into an unfortunate rebel standing in front of the weak barricade. Civilians outback use a back-door to escape whilst the remaining resistance hold their lines, they are soon overwhelmed, eventually evacuating themselves. One resistance member attempts to halt the inevitable assault, but gets terminated via Shotgun to the torso and was forced to be left behind, injured and left to rot. G-man acknowledges this. And confronts her later.
A mild foggy afternoon at the citadel, the body’s from the raid were being counted. A small handmade sedan is seen driving down a isolated forest, soon coming to a halt near a valley of unusable cars. An effigy made out a human CP corpse was fashioned as a warning. A rebel seen moving into his Cabin. Hunting for his next meal. A coup of birds catches his eye, he’s thinking of having a nice dinner, one being caught and killed mercilessly. Whilst cooking his reward, It appears that the headcrab zombies are still persistent in hunting, no matter how the setting presents itself. As a fast-zombie is heard sneaking up in the rebel. He arms SMG, and guns down 2 infected before running through the cornfields, realising that his spot was vulnerable to more ambushes. He crosses through the forest out back into towards a small cabin. A small radio station, long abandoned, only used for broadcasting temporal messages. Sending out a message towards the rebels within the confines of City-17 attempting to find refuge. A tired and exhausted rebel is seen sleeping, he is quickly alerted by the presence of the broadcast from the radio station, the co-ordinates to a refuge, a safe haven. He kits up in his Rebel clothing, and moves into a small rebel hideout. Two vortigaunts are seen playing cards. The plan was to be discussed among the rebels. The woman killed during the evacuation is seen, met by the G-man. Her body was taken and was transformed into what seems to be a failed combine transition, she awakens into her trans-human body. Rising, as the stalker moves in with his suffering life of slavery. The Combine Solider comes across cages, filled with drones disguised as birds. Next to it, there is a small backpack, perhaps filled with suit energy or other resources. He stumbles across a propaganda room, observing the brain-washing that all other combine ranks endure. He makes a dash across the hallways, seeming to know a lot of things about the citadel. He observes a highly durable Combine APC. And sneaks into it with the intent of escape. The CP’s guarding it are alerted and attempt to halt the APC, their attempts are proven futile due to the APCs resistant armour plates. Combine Elites open fire into the APC, proving futile as the pulse cannon obliterates the bridge. Realising that the only escape is via an shoddy repair job. He dives into one of the canals around the citadel, forcing his way out of the APC before drowning. A group of citizens is seen filling up a train-cart of supplies. Before cutting back towards the depressing background, the ‘broken’ combine is seen as a disgrace to the Citizens, and is promptly attacked whilst being observed by the G-man. He is abused, but with the extensive combat training injected into the solider and the help of a Blinding Camera Drone, he dispatches them before evacuating with haste, away from the approaching CPs.
A group of rebels are seen filling up a tran-carts full of ammo and other resources, whilst another observes and scans the layers of the citadel, he is spotted and scanned by a Combine Spy Bird, operated by what seems to be an elite. A Dark Charge is shot at the rebel, it is seen flying towards him with increasing speeds, with only a narrow dodge and a area full of debris, they were essentially walking beacons. Evacuated to another hideout in his sleep, the combine seen making their approach. The rebels, armed to the teeth, still plot an ambush in order to play it as safe as physically possible. As the first CP rounds a small wall, he is subsequently obliterated via shotgun. The LMGs fire up as the APCs make a futile defence against the relentless on-slaught of hellfire the rebels unleash. The civilians held up in another warehouse are announced a escape plan. Whilst a strider is deployed, taking out a Cross-Bow rebel. A Dune Buggy was dispatched, with one of the rebels unleashing a rocket upon the strider, destroying it.
The Rouge Combine Soldier seems aware of the escape plan, and is plotting to steal a Combine Helicopter, the Rebels at the final gate leading to the exterior of the City, hold off a few units, before a combine APC was sent out and was ordered to terminate the means of escape, catching 3 allies in the process, destroying the exit console. Before everyone could be arrested, tortured or killed by the Combine dispatched. The Rouge Combine destroys the APC and the Combine with it. Blasting open City 17s heavily armoured gates, before clearing out the CPs that weren’t killed during the initial ambush. All the civilians rush to the forest, seeking the Safe Haven they were promised. Eventually, the co-ordinates were reached, everyone was safe. There’s still work to do, and our Rouge Combine has a job meeting to attend.
she did good, man.
also, the scenes and choreography...
that was somthin special right there

It's been some time since I scanned the community again for HL content. I'm a complete nut for this stuff, at least used to be, it consumed me. This is a real good rendition of the kind of content I wanted to make, albeit mine was only a summary of the HL universe storyline, 7HW & all. There's very few quality productions like this, I've spent over 14 years ruminating on my own project, saving the best mods, concepts, sounds, demos, & others' content. Gigabytes of stuff. Always too busy & never able to commit to manifesting it. Every now and again a gem like this pops up, don't know why it took me over 2 years to find, and it's incredibly emotional to watch. Not just from personal regret and waste, but you actually make me feel the novelty of the game universe again. Canon or not, this shit is phenomenally mesmerizing, and built with detailed craft in every shot. Thank you, man.
Breathtaking. I had no idea that this sort of film even existed until now. I would definitely like to see more, if it exists. Personally I play G-Mod, recently with little vigor. Now I may try something like this work of art if I ever have the time and inspiration (not to mention the patience) readily accessible. Excellent story as well. I am no expert, but I believe that this 40-minute film is definitely worthy of evolving into a 2-hour blockbuster action movie. Most impressive and excellent work!

Ziii Mr. Я бы так не сказал... Работа хорошая, но сюжет... Комбайны никогда не предают Альянс, а что мы видем? Комбайны на половину роботы. От человека у них только тело и разум, а все остальное от заложенных кибер-способностей. Например сила и выносливость, у них нет чувств, таких как, страха или сострадания, так же, они не чувствуют боли. Все о чем они могут думать, это только о том, какую информацию им заложили советники, и только этой информации они будут придерживатся. Тогда какого хрена, в видео нам показывают, как киборг спасает людей? Киборг блять!!! Где тут логика? Это тоже самое, если терминатор T-800 будет спасать Сару Коннор, вместо того, чтобы ее убить (ечли ты понимаешь о чем я). Если честно, сюжет из видео никак не совпадает со вселенной халвы.
Ну я хз пойди трупы должны уничтожить лазером взрывом т.д, так же можно сбой системы и его объявят дефектом и его быстро найдут и ампутируют и все.
Так же сопротивлений и бывшие ученые могут перепрограмировать.
Не смогут. Даже если взять комбайна в плен чтобы перепрограмирывать, ученым придется добратся до его мозга, но для этого они должны снять его противогаз, а если его снять - комбайн просто умрет, т.к. противогаз фильтрует им особый воздух, от которого они питаются. Ученые ни как не смогут перепрограмирывть комбайна.
Бля точно надо до советников дакопатся
Не существует слов, чтобы описать чувства, которые вызывает эта машинима.
Собственный стиль автора и его собственный взгляд на Half-Life придает шарм. Персонажами не было сказано почти ни слова за все 40 минут (Исключение - Доктор Брин) это очень умный и невероятно сильный ход, ведь в таком случае мы занимаем свою голову не словами, а повествованием через визуал (привет, Тартаковски).
История в сеттинге вполне банальная и короткая, если рассказать ее словами, но передана очень драматично и под необычным углом.
