So that Noble-Six actually had a name, which was Thom-A293. This trailer took place in the Spring of 2552, so I'd say it was a few months before our Noble-Six got transferred to Noble Team, since the Halo: Reach starts in July

This is what we mean with 'treat the visor as eyes'. You can see intent and desicions with the helmet tilted slightly down. Why do we know Kat is 'at the edge'? She's staring at the sky. How do we know Thom has accepted his death? Because he's staring down the covenant without a shiver nor flinch. The moment between Kat and Thom has emotional weight because they're staring at each other, and her head rolls up to the warhead, and he grabs it and goes. Pain -> comisseration -> objective -> desicion -> Kat's sadness watching Thom fly off. Gotta love helmet acting done well.

@Foot_Connoisseur 6 месяцев назад

I think i took Noble 6 flying up into the light as almost an emphasis on how supernatural Spartans are. He was depicted almost angelic which is fitting for a spartan being that they are called "humanities saviors". The head shot right before he tosses the bomb also made me feel like hes thinking to himself "the jobs done" but a part of me (watching this after playing the game) feels like that shot was for us as the player. What I mean by that is that I felt like I was him in that shot and if i were standing there in-front of my enemy knowing I was about to end them after everything they've done I would be thinking to myself "fuck you guys, heres a gift". Amazing video again, I love watching these and am so glad you feel this way about these Halo commercials. They were really next level.

@Helix900 8 месяцев назад

The Halo 3 adverts that are more like documentaries with veterans of the Human Covenant war describing weapons and battles hit really hard. Also the physical models made for them are phenomenal.

@soldaatjhu 8 месяцев назад

2:38 the original plan from Bungie was to let Tom just sit down at the edge and put the bomb besides him, because he knew he wasn't going to make it in time. But Microsoft though it was too dark, so they changed it to him running away. I prefer the first idea, but still, the first trailer is 10/10 for me.

@Pikawarps 7 месяцев назад

If this is true I’m disappointed in Microsoft. The resignation would have been 10x more cinematically pleasing. As he mentioned in his breakdown, it doesn’t make sense for Noble 6 to flee up the ramp knowing the bomb was going off in 10 seconds

@sespider 8 месяцев назад

I suspect the Dutch Angle shot was to align with the immediate previous shot of the ship. The shot of ship was at a downward angle at the battle where the shape of the ship, and flight of the banshee, provided a sharpe dutch angle. Keeping that angle for the next shot of Kat not only eases the viewer back into the battle scene but also kept the line of sight of the ship's angles and the kept both the ship and Kat's gun in full sight. Lastly, the dutch angle also helps confirm the ship as Kat's target for the next shot of the other other spartan. Whom of which we never learn the name of (note his hud is missing in his brief FPS moment. We also never get to see his armors chest plate insignia. But Kat's and Jun's are on full display (but brief). That little lack of detail is nice because, although we never played as that particular Noble-6, it still manages to put us into the boots of the game's Noble-6.

I really appreciate the use of a kind of film noir cucoloris shot at the end there with the protagonist right before he tosses the bomb. The lighting under the chin is another way of giving it that sense of immenint doom that the character is going through . Showing emotion with helmets is a skill of its own and bungie definitely had it during this time. I definitely think modern filmmaking can benefit with learning how to display emotion without showing the actors face more because it can really take scenes like this to the next level.

@indianawarriorspaintball3139 8 месяцев назад

When it comes to the dutch angle you talked about when Kat was firing her pistol (11:40), I feel they chose that shot to make it seem more realistic. I know that spartans have an overlaid targeting system in their helmets. However, from filming paintball and airsoft i have learned that people do strange things when shooting firearms. That awkward tilt could be from Kat leaning her head slightly to look over the top of the Magnum and what we see in the shot is the perspective of the attached camera that she wears on her helmet which we see at (15:56). I may be completely wrong but just from personal experience from wearing a camera in the same spot on my paintball mask that's what i think they were trying to do. Edit: Halo has a history of doing CCTV and other cameras in the moment from other commercials they have done. best one i can think of is Landfall that did that. more specifically the scene where the two odsts are riding in the warthog and we see that one is injured from a camera pointing back at the cab.

So, bit of a correction here: This is not Reach, this happened months earlier. This is the battle of Fumirole, a different human colony planet. That noble six, is Thom-A239, he was noble six before our spartan, B312, a hyper-lethal ONI Headhunter, was asigned to the fireteam. Thom didnt make it off the ship when the bomb detonated, he, and every alien on board, died. This battle was how Kat lost her arm, when she was med-evaced, her arm was amputated and replaced with the bionic we see in game.

@yelviegonzales8423 6 месяцев назад

@augury2699 8 месяцев назад

also on 16:55 about the arm. I think going in most people should have the idea of 'combat readiness' and being 'fit for combat' showing her badly mangled armed should also tell you that she's no longer fit to complete the mission and the mission being 'deliver the bomb' has been the focal point of the trailer from a story standpoint. I just like how even with no dialogue just purely where the camera draws your focus you can tell a story.

@KD-bk7gd 24 дня назад

They show Thom trying to escape because even though the odds are a million to one that he would survive, that’s exactly what a Spartan would do. Spartans never give up. It would be more emotional for him to die holding it, but that wouldn’t show a Spartans commitment to the mission. If he’s going to die, it’s going to be while trying to live.

@Valagrimm 6 месяцев назад

I know many ppl think the old games are still better but in my eyes reach will go down alongside Halo CE-3. This kind of quality is what matters; its proof the ppl working on this were still trying to make it the best

This is such an amazing trailer. For that weird dutch-angle shot, I'm pretty sure they did it that way so you would SEE her arm. That's the arm she loses, so you get to see the cause of her loss (the Covenant ship) and then the thing she loses.

@DanOrpheus 8 месяцев назад

Fun Fact: That spartan who took the bomb is Thom-A293, he was the former Noble-6 before us, in his design docs he was supposedly a very selfless, humorous and texan cowboyish type character, while his design was left more muted on the commercials, his actual "canon" armor is very colorful on the concept art and it even got adapted as an armor kit for the Mark V(B) somewhat recently in Halo Infinite.

@portait-of-a-blankslate 8 месяцев назад

For the Dutch angle that you described. The reason why it's so offset is because of the head cam she's wearing, it's on the right side of the helmet and you can see it in some prototype helmets. Or another reason completely is that the film director wanted you to feel offset for it. Either way. Every time I see (I've been a long-term halo fan since halo 2) it still brings me to tears knowing that I have a deeper connection with this group.

It is truly remarkable the amount of meaning and emotion you can express with just a closeup of a visor. It sucks that so few people recognize this. We don't _need_ to see a face, humans communicate with and find meaning in, so much more than just facial expressions. I try to imagine what Deliver Hope would be like if Kat and/or Thom didn't have a helmet on, and I can only really conclude that it wouldn't be as good. Meaning would be lost, not gained.

@supertrashdragon2857 6 месяцев назад

The thing that always gets me with this trailer is the way Thom (The Noble Six in this trailer and whose position we fill in-game) drops his arm holding the bomb in the end and stares blankly ahead at the sheer size of the Covenant force in this one ship alone. You don't see his face but you can tell that he knows he won't get out alive, maybe its just human reaction to run from the bomb, but I love to think that he knew there was no chance of getting out, but that his death would be worth something in this battle and hopefully in the war. That final zoom in to his visor just emphasizing his courage and bravery in the face of certain death. Then that zoom out showing the scope of what his sacrifice had achieved followed by how small it really was in the scale of an all out planetary war, it explains exactly what Spartan 3's are made to do without a single word and what our role is going to be: to trade lives for time

This cinematic is the first time you really see how the Banshee acts in a "lore scene" and how its described in the books. They're scary ground attack fighters, in the games for balance they're slow and predictable. But here they act like a nimble ground attack/dog fighter. I always imagine them as an A10 that has the manoeuvrability of a jet fighter. It's a shame we've never seen a Wraith in media properly. The line in First Strike, in Fred's POV when he describes why the Wraith tank is called the Wraith; "You get one look and then it makes you one". In game they're easy to dodge and destroy, but we never see a marine just evaporate from plasma.

I am shock d that you haven’t cover the commercial for Halo Reach: “BIRTH OF A SPARTAN” love your reviews!

@patriot459 6 месяцев назад

Yes exactly man… master cheeks in the show thinks he needs to have helmet and dam near all of his armor off to show emotion and intent but as you pointed out it’s just you can feel these moments and how each character is feeling. You can feel mats determination as you see her running and shooting and doing whatever it takes to get the mission done which then when that rocket blows her up you can tell she feels defeated. Then six comes up to her and doesn’t help her up or do anything but looks down at her for a second and with no hesitation takes that bomb and gets to work… like he knows what she was feeling and he’s like I got this and stares down that entire ships army with not an ounce of fear…

All members of Noble team are seen in this. Jorge and Jun have already been pointed out, but Emile is at 10:23-10:25, just above the commentator box. Carter is a little harder to see but he is at 13:30, seen stabbing an Elite from behind. Then obviously Kat and Thom are the main characters.

Awesome video mate, one thing that I feel they did really well in the game and this you never see noble 6’s face and you never actually see him die in the game or video, there are a few parts of lore and story that suggest he survived reach

Has he reacted to the “we are ODST” trailer yet? Cause that one is, in my opinion, the single best live action Halo trailer of the bunch

@ConorJ99 8 месяцев назад

100% agree, completely captures that hopeless fight motive that halo has always went for

@commanderbeastly8937 7 месяцев назад

I cannot wait for that ODST video because I know exactly which trailer youre talking about and its one of my favorite halo trailers of all time. Also you should watch the Halo 3 Believe trailer sometime.

@kaizammit 7 месяцев назад

Believe is and will be a Patreon exclusive. Should be up soon. Both of them actually ✌🏻

@Carlos-dm5fo 8 месяцев назад

21:36 youre mistaken, the spartan that delivered the bomb didn't make it back. They're who you replace in Reach.

@icebreaker4354 8 месяцев назад

Fun fact, this ain’t reach, it does take place couple of months before halo reach though. It takes place in another human colony invaded by the covenant And noble six is a he, Thom was his name, he dies in the end, doesn’t make it in time to jump off the grav lift of the ship So noble team was in this trailer, kat, jorge, jun, and emile (the spartan that stabbed an elite on the back, seconds before kat gets blown off) don’t remember if carter was here too, must’ve been, after all he’s noble team leader

@theascendunt9960 6 месяцев назад

I love how the camera pans out and sees the planet is already lost. But even at our lowest, when all odds are stacked against us, humans don't stop fighting. That's why I love these trailers. It invoked more emotion than simply getting me hyped for a video game.

@CringelordJen 8 месяцев назад

im so glad you got around to covering this as well. every since playing the multiplayer beta as a kid i could never let go or forget how monumental and beautiful this trailer is and always will be. this is without a doubt one of my favorite trailers of all time and for all the great reasons you got to notice and call out. but this really does matter and hit home more after getting to play the game. SPOILER FOR THE LAST MISSION OF REACH! . . . in the mission description for your last stand after Survive, it says "Spartan's never die." alluding to the known adage "Spartan's don't die, they just go MIA." which has always kind of hurt in a small way but continue the legend of the Spartans. I feel like even thought the last 6 (the one in this trailer) never got to greet death with their own eyes, in some way Our 6 gets to make that right in their final moments in memoriam to them in some way. Halo Reach is and has always been such a solid story and narrative, even more so thanks to it working in tandem with the gameplay, so we all really do hope you get to play it some time (maybe on the MCC (Master Chief Collection)) and really get to appreciate all that it offers. (and maybe look up the parting message Bungie left for player of the OG Reach version and appreciate that in the Halo ring approach cutscene as well as all the easter eggs they left for the players that 343 ended up taking out(particularly Halsey's lab that Cortana is seen in, its full of nods and love))

Everyone here talking about Halo. But the details and knowledge Kai gives us on every frame is outstanding! He's a great teacher. I'm an architect that does a lot of photo and video editing, yet a noobie when it comes to filmmaking. You've inspired me to learn more about the craft and even considering jumping back to university to dive into it more!

@kaizammit 2 месяца назад

Thank you fella for commenting! Depending on where you are in your career, I would say go to Uni for confidence with the craft and unsure where in the industry you want to go. It allows you to try things and work on certain areas. Most of my learning actually came from experimenting on set when it comes to lighting etc on real clients work. I just happen to fall in love with commercials so it fits my needs as a storyteller. Let me know what you do or what area you think you might like to take a look at. Always happy to suggest things when it comes to growth of an individual. Keep learning fella!

@ToneFuentes 2 месяца назад

@@kaizammit Thank you very much, Kai. That's great advice. A mixture of learning and practicing. I guess it's similar to my line of work, one thing is learning all the theory and how to design, and another is actually going out into the field, building and seeing the drawings come to life. In terms of what I would like to do? I'd say story telling general. I love movies/docs/commercials that are well done, that make evident the quality of the directing when realise they have complete control of the viewers emotions. I know how to use cameras, lighting, the technical stuff. However I lack the resources on how apply and compile them with the music, SFX, script, color grading; to make a scene transmit a specific emotion or on how it affects the story. Like in this breakdown, you taught us so many details that are there for a specific reason, but otherwise I would have never caught. I think I just need to jump in and start learning.

@kaizammit 2 месяца назад

@ToneFuentes fella, look up commercials, look at how they manipulate the audience to buy or visit the place. This is why I love commercials, you have to convey a message for both the audience and the client all within 30 seconds for example. Christmas ads are the best for making you feel a certain way. Bit different from the 5 C's of storytelling but with ads, it's all about the 4 P's. Plot, People, Pace and Purpose. Are you a freelancer?

@ToneFuentes 2 месяца назад

@@kaizammit Very interesting! I wasn't even aware of 5 C's. Looks like I have a lot to learn. I'm going to start taking notes and breaking down commercials in an a bit more of an analytic way. Thank you very much, Kai. Aside from architecture. I've done little to no work as a freelancer quite a while ago. I stopped as I didn't have the knowledge to replicate what I envisioned at the time. Now I mostly edit for my RU-vid channel or other social media. Nothing that requires more hands or really anything complex - quite shallow if I'm honest. If you ever make an online class or release an online course I'd love to learn from you.

@kaizammit 2 месяца назад

@ToneFuentes I might one day do it (online course) but it's more about time now. I've got 2 small children, the channel and the production company I work for, want that to grow too. Not enough hours in the day fella. The best way to learn really is to just jump in. Also that it's not going to be perfect, you are limited to the budget you have. I struggle sometimes like that, I try to make 100K looking commercials when my budget for a particular brand might only be 15K. Something's have to give, just have fun though!

@crazyguy_1233 8 месяцев назад

It’s not Halo related but I think Wolfenstein The New Order, The New Colossus, Old Blood, and New Blood might be a cool breakdown. And they all have some very cinematic trailers. And the Bioshock trailers also feel cinematic.

@eaterofthings 7 месяцев назад

At 12:49, you can see a spartan (presumably Emile) taking down an elite with a melee weapon (hard to tell, but probably the iconic kukri). Nice to see most of Noble team represented here! Not sure where Carter was, or if he's in this trailer and I just missed him-maybe someone more familiar with the lore knows!

@sebastianshades4 7 месяцев назад

The Spartan taking down the Elite was Carter. Emile can be seen behind some cover on the left side, right after Jorge.

That Spartan that takes the Nuke to the Covenant ship is Noble Teams old Noble Six that didn't get out in time and the Noble Six of the game is the team's new replacement to bring the team back up to full combat readiness...Carter Noble One said so himself in the intro cinematic!!!

@Mythricia1988 8 месяцев назад

This is one of the best cinematic pieces that have come out of game media in general, I think. It's beautiful. And it's clever, in the sense that for an outside audience (so, people who don't know Halo) it has enough going for it to get them feeling something and get them invested; but it has a 2nd layer for people who DO know what this is all about. And the cinematic doesn't take anything away nor compromise for either audience, I think.
