Thanks! I’ve noticed that a lot of animations have issues with the concept of “show don’t tell” so I strive to tell a story without words. It’s really fun, especially when I see people noticing small details. For example: Adam hesitates to hell the elites, which can be seen as him being xenophobic, but is also hinting at his affiliation with ONI, and his lack of trust in other people (hence he pointed his gun at Pliskin on multipolar occasions, even when they were working together).
I love how one Spartan use the covenant weapons as to his advantage I don't see that to many other stop motion Halo videos and good job and I hope you're doing well😊❤ and the giant robots were very cool edition to the stop motion😊
man this is good and the metal gear 3 music in the background perfecto it takes me back to the good old days of halo 3 the rising and metal gear 1 music is pretty good to
I'm only about 5 minutes in but I really want to point out the detail of the detail of the blue light when the spartan is punching elites - its showing they have shields without actual shield affects like most animators hate addressing and doing (understandably). really amazing idea and detail I love about this so far.
This was a fantastic animation absolutely loved every moment of it. I'm definitely late to it but that didn't stop me from watching the whole thing. Definitely a great twist with the ONI Spartan wasn't expecting that and the practical effects are done so well plus the fights were awesome loved how you animated those. Lastly the story it's self was great as well as your set designs. I'd have to say again hollow this was a great animation film and I'm excited to see another film from you when the time comes.
I’m glad you noticed! I tried to put a lot of effort into characterizing Adam (orange spartan) and the others, even if they didn’t have the most screen time.
@@thefallen2220 yes and no, parallels can be drawn between them, but any similarities they share are coincidence, unlike Adam and Ocelot’s similarities
They are different virgils. I kinda forgot that engineer Virgil existed, but I like the idea of them being counterparts. Though don’t read into it too much, it’s less of the RWS AI’s name and more of their classification.

@@hollowsteel dgfdgdfgvdfgfdhbvfgdxfgdxgbdfhfdhgdfhdf Do you know about the other franchises in my comment, not all theories and indications of aliens are false, Halo and Destiny share a universe, John 117 is the copy of Captain America and Iron Man, it also says John looks like a Power Ranger, in space I copied Star Wars and RPG I copied Mad Max and Terminator, theory whils from Star Wars are worse than the siths, saw spaceballs 1985, being flood and forerunner s are the worst fates than death, Spartan Nicole-458 from dead or alive 4
The old video had multiple sound balancing related issues (mainly noticeable near the end.) I also had trouble with copyright. For some reason the old video got a copyright strike for a song that I didn’t even use.
Also I like how in your stop motions you dont use dialogue, only actions to tell the story. Its rlly unique and works well!

To see a terrific stop-motion film by none other than a guy who likes hollow knight is just terrific.
Wonderful storytelling without dialogue.
At a loss of words, its just really damn good.
man this is good and the metal gear 3 music in the background perfecto it takes me back to the good old days of halo 3 the rising and metal gear 1 music is pretty good to
8:11 snake eater playing
When the opening words appeared, 'current objective' I was taken back to reach
I love the mark 7 designs and enubis too so great to see them here

Thanks! I always strive to put lil details like that into all my animations.
That was great!!
Thanks!
Awesome stuff Hollow, really enjoyed this one.
Thank you!
benis
i love the music choice
I love how you put Bionicle in this...amazing movie!
Wow, a lot of effort was put into this, awesome

Wow this is AMAZING THE SPARTAN COLOR THE ELITES EVEN THO THE MAP I GIVE IT 10000/10❤❤
I don’t know what you mean, but appreciate your comment!
This guy does not get enough love for what he does
nice job man i like this work , it would be nice to have some voice acting there to build up the story even more
Thanks! I mainly stayed away from dialogue since that’d make it take even longer to make.
This is next level stop motion
Epic battle scenes! Great movie!
That shit was awesome.
Elites and Spartans fighting together.
Against robots.
I love how you can show character without dialogue for example the orange spartan I could tell is very arrogant hot headed and a show off
I’m glad you noticed! I tried to put a lot of effort into characterizing Adam (orange spartan) and the others, even if they didn’t have the most screen time.
You are truly talented! Well done!! [+1 sub] 👍
The animation so cool
Cine ✨
management mustve really hated that guy
The white spartan remembered the basics of CQC
R.I.P. green frog that got punched
STOP THAT BLADE
*proceeds to parry 10+ tons of steel*
The red spartan is just Ocelot, he uses a pistol like a revolver he betrays and he got his arm cut off by a blade
And his name is Adam... tbh I may have went too hard with the metal gear references
@@hollowsteel And the elite is gray fox then?
@@thefallen2220 yes and no, parallels can be drawn between them, but any similarities they share are coincidence, unlike Adam and Ocelot’s similarities
@@hollowsteel Pliskin is solid snake as he uses CQC hides inside objects and his name is a reference to his fake identity in MGS2
the elite ultra was a beast
That was great
Virgil in halo 3 and the books:😇 Virgil's in the first half of this:😡
They are different virgils. I kinda forgot that engineer Virgil existed, but I like the idea of them being counterparts. Though don’t read into it too much, it’s less of the RWS AI’s name and more of their classification.
@@hollowsteel ok
Whooooooo
Wish my stop motions were as good as yours
They’ll get there with enough practice

This is so good but what did the frog do
What did the frog do 😭
12:14:so the elites and the Spartan celebrate together?
Aren’t they on different teams?
Not necessarily a celebration, more of a temporary truce to take down the considerably larger robotic threat.
@@hollowsteel fist in the air
@@victorsandoval4792 it’s a sign that the elites are friendly, at least the elites assumed that the gesture had a positive connotation.
13:06
Why did he beat up the poor frog?
Sometimes it’s what you gotta do
The robots remind me of the UGs in metal gear
that's what they're loosely based on
So goated idk why the old one got copyrighted
Idk either honestly
I hear hollow knight music, i like
AYYYYYYYY
y you kill the frog
Did he eat the frog 🐸
Some days you’ll feed on a tree frog-
@@hollowsteel nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lolololol ( I thought u said feed a tree frog and I was like 🐸)
Those giant robots are forunner machines right?
No, they're actually a type of advanced ONI war machine, similar to the Metal Gears and Unmanned Gears from Metal Gear Solid.
How Did you manage to put the helmet from the brute onto Spartan pilskin?
Sticky putty, an animator’s best friend!
What planet they on ?
And what date is it in the video ?
They're on one of the halo rings, and I'm sure the date is stated there somewhere.
How you light up when the gun is shooting?
Flashlights
@@hollowsteel i mean how to you flash the lego
@@victorpelipenko6702 again, I shine a flashlight into translucent lego pieces.
Why?
The old video had multiple sound balancing related issues (mainly noticeable near the end.) I also had trouble with copyright. For some reason the old video got a copyright strike for a song that I didn’t even use.
Ok
@@hollowsteel one of lifes mysteries...
Where do you download ur sounds from?
Thesoundsresource is a very good website, however it can be a little unreliable.
@@hollowsteel Thats where I get mine too
Why’d you reupload this?
Copyright issues on top of sound balancing issues.
@@hollowsteel ah
Is it copyright
Partially, yes
may i suggest if you get more comfortable with it doing more voice acting
How come? I feel like most stories don’t really need it
