PIPEVC

Halloween is this friday! FRIDAY!

In light of that, I've carved some pumpkins. Wanna see? Too bad.

Woohoo! Watch this, 'nuff said.

Peace,

Hey all! I finally finished that AMV I was working on. Wanna see it?





October 6, 2008

Hey guys! So, PipEvc is planning to move to a different URL! But like all plans at PipEvc, it's doomed to fail. So, I doubt the move will actually happen, but ironically, if Yoshiki reads this, it will only inspire him to work harder. And we wouldn't want that, now would we?


October 4, 2008

Between Episode Zero: Part Three, Zero Wing Live-Action, HUMINT, Halo-Life Episode 5, The Injury, Psychosocial,  and my work for CTV, we are in over our heads with work. Sorry noting has come out for a while. But just to keep you up to speed, Jordan has been working on a webcomic that really isn't even all that funny, so Yoshiki is working on Zero Wing. Or at least he was supposed to, until he told me this afternoon that the audio wasn't working on the raw files. Great.

To make things even more delayed, I'm interested in making each of the following, while I've been recieving countless emails from people asking me to help them out with making machinima:

-The Force Unleashed Music Video to H.I.M.'s "Bury Me Deep Inside Your Heart"
-A Live-Action version of Devil May Cry 3's prolouge
-A Live-Action version of The Force Unleashed Trailer

Cheers!

Friday, we filmed a live-action adaptation of the infamous Zero Wing.

Once Jordan finishes adding special effects, I'll post it here.

Also, I nominate The Force Unleashed as the best game ever. Yes, better than even Mass Effect. Go. Buy. TFU. NOW.

Chillax,

Yeah, so uh... Yeah.

Ignore that last post, hard as it may be, the whole site turning red and all. So, today I helped Wilshire make a "Punisher Cross". It looks something like this:



^ The Cross on the back of the motorcycle

It's from the anime "Trigun", which I've barely seen. Apparently this dude Wolfwood carries it around; it's a Cross-Shaped chaingun that he wraps up for concealment. Anyways, Wilshire and his dad put together the inside frame, and bought some fabric to wrap over it. Then, I came over there and wrapped it up with some hockey tape. The final result:



Just a side note, all of this is for his Wolfwood Cosplay that he'll be wearing to NDK (An anime convention). NDK is tomorrow and all this weekend down at Cherry Creek. I wanted to go, but can't for a couple of reasons. I'm sure you don't want to waste any more time reading this, so I'll cut to the end.

Which reminds me, happy September 11th! Oh wait...

You probably noticed the redecorating. I'm not really sure exactly what I'm supposed to say about (RED SHIFT)... It looks pretty sweet though, huh?

9/8/08

After school, I rushed home to download the newly-released demo of The Force Unleashed. It was by no means a bad demo, and it was by all means fun. If I had to sum it up in a sentence: Devil May Cry - Guns + Force Powers = TFU.

I'll start by saying that if you don't play the tutorial, your going to feel rushed and confused at first, like I did. Also, I had a lot of trouble with the auto-targeting system. Basically, it targets whatever enemy or object is in the direction you are facing.

I'd start on the apprentice difficulty, and work your way up. The AT-AT at the end of the demo took me 7 tries on the hardest difficulty. But I eventually pulled it off.

So, for those of you who have an Xbox 360, get on the Xbox Live Marketplace and try out this demo! And I think its also on whatever the PS3 uses as an excuse for internet service.

Adios,
7he Red - August 21, 2008

P.S. - The full game has not been released yet. The full game comes out September 16 (Next month!)

Once again, we are behind schedule. The Injury will be delayed due to... Reasons.

7he Red - August 16, 2008

Since our main series is such crap, we've been lately working on short skits featuring Halo-Life Characters. They're called "Shortz".

Here is the first one, called Helmet Permutations.




7he Red - August 11, 2008

P.S. - The next one is already being created. It's called The Injury.

Yeah, ignore that last update. I'm fairly operational now. Expect full recovery... Sometime. And yes, I'm aware everything I just said contradicts my first statement.

Hey, my sense of humor is returning! =D

7he Red - August 8, 2008

Hey, guys... If anybody reads this. Maybe I feel so secure here because nobody reads this. =(

You probably noticed I'm in a not-so-great mood... For a couple reasons. It's 2:30 AM where I'm at, and I'm an emotional wreck. You remember Elle? Well... I fell in love. Deeply in love. I've only done that once before, but it was unrequited. Anyways, Elle told me today that I'm too clingy, she never loved me, and that she likes David more. I'll admit that I've been very clingy since last time we saw each other, but couldn't she just ask me to not be so clingy, instead of breaking up with me? As for the never loving me and the David thing, I don't know. Maybe shes lying to get my stubborn ass to let go.

But since I've met her, I became a complete optimist; I had never felt so content and blissful in my entire life. Now that shes breaking up, it's like my heart has been torn from my chest, I'm struggling to find the will to live... I've been up crying since 10:40 PM.

I'm so crushed and heartbroken... D'=

7he Red - August 7, 2008

Whew... I'm pooped. Not from the Tournament, but from Elle. Lol, thats all I'm gonna say about that, shes a really great girl. :)

Anyways, as I promised, here is the coverage:

ROUND 1

Elle vs. Hailey (Cisco) Winner: Hailey

Austin (Sir Spartan) vs. Yoshiki (Domo Arigato) Winner: Austin

Jordan (Master Chef) vs. Josh (7he Red) Winner: Josh

Spencer (Screensavior) vs. Austin (Sir Spartan) Winner: Austin


ROUND 2

Austin vs. Hailey Winner: Austin

FINAL ROUND

Austin vs. Josh Winner: Josh

LOSER ROUND

Elle vs Spencer Winner: Spencer

Jordan vs Yoshiki Winner: Yoshiki

PLACING

1st Place - Josh (ODST Spartan)
2nd Place- Austin (Brute Stalker)
3rd Place- Hailey (Cortana)
4th Place- Yoshiki (Master Chief)


Anyways, it was kind of disorganized, but it turned out to be great fun anyways. This will certainly not be the last tournament we will have. Lol

7he Red - July 28, 2008

In addition to the prizes mentioned in the previous update, there will also be a Cortana Action Figure. Thus, the 4th place winner gets fourth pick. Nothing else has changed.


7he Red - July 24, 2008

Okay, the prizes from yesterday's update have been announced:

Brute Stalker
Spartan ODST
Master Chief

The 1st Place winner gets first choice of which action figure they want, 2nd gets second choice, and 3rd place gets third choice.

All other contestants will receive one of these things:
 
As well as a pack of Halo 3 Trading Cards. (Not my idea, I personally think that the cards are over the top)

The party will be from 3:00PM to 10:30PM on Saturday, July 18th.

7he Red - July 22, 2008

Woohoo! Today is my 17th Birthday. So now I can buy Mature Rated games without an adult having to be there. Which is ridiculous, I've been playing M games since I was 14. Younger, even. I think.

So, yeah. I'll be seeing The Dark Knight today. It's gotten great reviews, and I really look forward to seeing it.

In other news, my party is Saturday the 26th, and there will be a Halo 3 Tournament at my place. The prizes are still pending. The rounds will be divided into competitive one-on-one matches that have no kill limit, but a time limit of 15 or 20 minutes (Pending). I'll be covering the event, the games will appear sometime later afterwards on my file share.

Peace out!
7he Red - July 21, 2008
Parting shot:

Jordan just left for Dallas, Texas to see some relatives of his. He'll be back Friday or Saturday next week. Until then, I have possession of the camera. And you know what that means? Productivity!

I'll be working mainly on [my summer school] Halo-Life Episode 5, or maybe Part 2 of the Bungie Day PSA. Who knows? I do. That's who.

7he Red - 7/17/08

P.S. - I still want that Recon armor for my Birthday, guys. Thats 5 days from now. Get on it.

See? Told ya.

<3,
7he Red, Masterchef, and Domo Arigato. ^_^

EDIT: Oh Shit... I just made Domo's name Gay Pride colors! :O

As Retaliation to those nonexistent fans whom I expect to give me feedback about the site from, I skipped covering three major events:

- Bungie Day
- Wilshire's Birthday (He turned 18)
- Cisco's Birthday (She turned 16)

Now, as for Bungie Day, a very late PSA will be released later today about it. Once again, its a skit that is better than our main series. Maybe we should start making nothing but skits. Or perhaps we already have?

Now that I've got you confused, it'll appear later today on my youtube channel.

It seems we have a lot of July birthdays here at PipE, and just to add to Wilshire and Cisco's list, my birthday is on the 21st. July is one popular birth month lately. So, here is my birthday wishlist, for all of you wondering what to get me:

-Recon Armor =
 smexeh

And thats about it...

Okay, yes, I know it sounds pathetic, but I'm only saying that because I can't think of any damn thing that I want. Surprise me; don't get me anything. Or get me Devil May Cry 4. Or 007: Casino Royale on Blu-Ray. Or just give me money. Yeah, money. Give me lots of money.

Hey, everyone! I'd like to just wish you all a happy 4th of July! Here is your little treat:

"Dude, no!! Your supposed to light the caps on fire not the- [BOOM!]"

7he Red - July 4, 2008

Lets face it, this website has little (if any) recognition from people outside PipE. But, thats not the point. I'd like you all (of the few people who actually come here, I love you guys, and no, I don't do ecstasy or any other drug...  That Godsmack concert last summer being a possible exception) to see two things I've dug up during my internet travels:

Good 3ye Sniper, aka octoarmtron, has created an excellent tribute for bungie day, see it here:  (its his trophy shot) http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/default.aspx?player=Good%203ye%20Sniper

Another thing is a machinima video "Adventures of Delta Squad: 4th of July fireworks PSA":


Some of you may be wondering why I posted this, but its because it reminds me of our own machinima. I mean, it just goes to show the fun and hard work put into making machinima.

Anyways, for Bungie day (July 7th), change your Halo 3 (or 2 for some of you) emblem to either the number "7" or the 7th Column symbol for that day. Myself, my emblem is a 7 anyways, so I'm covered. See you all later, and happy Independence Day tomorrow! Fireworks ftw

7he Red - July 3, 2008

P.S. - Seriously, though... my name holds great significance to Bungie. We'll discuss it later.

And for some fans, its more exciting than the 4th of July. (People from other countries don't count, sorry guys) Anyways, Bungie day is no other than July 7th (7/7/08), where fans of Bungie gather together to do the same thing they always do: play Halo. Except now, they've got an excuse. Some people (such as myself) take Bungie day to a higher level, and save a few fireworks for Bungie Day.

Bungie had this to say on Bungie day:

"It's been hinted and teased in prior updates but I should remind everyone again that "Bungie Day" is rapidly approaching. For the uninitiatied, I am of course referring to July 7th.  The day of 7/7 has a lot of special meaning at Bungie, even before it became the day we became an independent developer last year. Seven has shown up in Bungie games for years including a huge amount of references throughout the Halo series.  I could rattle of a list but our community has done that and more already. Check out this wiki page for an exhaustive look at the significance of 7.

What matters most to you though is that we have a tradition of offering some treats to our fans on this special day. This year, we will continue the tradition with another set of FREE exclusive gamerpics and a dashboard theme from Xbox LIVE Marketplace. These items are only going to be available for one day so mark your calendar now. If you miss them on 7/7, they are gone forever.

We have a few other goodies planned but you'll have to wait until next week to hear more about that. And who knows, the importance of 7/7 may even be enough to get Luke to produce another installment of the Bungie Podcast.

Suffice it to say that 7/7/08 will be a great day for Bungie fans. You've been warned."

Of course, you've already read that at bungie.net if your at this website, all things considered...
So, see you Bungie day, my gamertag is o7he Red, in case your interested.

Occasionally, PipEvc has nothing new to report. (Whereas Halolife.net never has anything to report) So, here a few unrelated things I did in my spare time, that I think you'll enjoy:








7he Red - June 16, 2008

P.S. Yes, I did all the above. I'm so awesome.

Okay, look. I know your still recovering from the new intro sequence, but:



7he Red - June 11, 2008

So, here is the product of the previous update:


7he Red - May 28, 2008

Headline

So, yesterday Coffaro, Masterchef, Sir Spartan, Domo, and myself all met at Jordan's house to study and do some filming. "Some" is an understatement. Jordan finished his first music video entirely in just 2 hours. Thats the most productive PipE has even been. Sadly.

Oh, and we also studied for finals.

"Secret" "Underground" Project

Me and Yoshiki are going to make a live-action version of all the Death Note Intros and outros.

Thats all,
7he Red - May 26, 2008

Not that any of us at PipEvc are 12th graders, but its just something that might spark your interest Or it might not.

Also, the first lazer was invented today, which eventually led to this:



Scary...

Halo-Life Episode Zero: Part Three is filmed in completion, as is Part Four. Editing should begin sometime this weekend. Should....

Jordan keeps failing to record the content off of my file share, so the Death Note Intro is delayed. Sorry guys, be mad at him.

Episode 5 is also on the way (Not really) so expect that (when hell freezes over and pigs can fly) soon.

7he Red - May 16, 2008

Go check out our new comics page, although in actuality, they are our old comics. However, I am planning on continuing Journey's of 7he Red, which will lead into Episode Zero: Part One. Check back for weekly updates.

7he Red - May 11, 2008

Check out these pictures of Chef in his trousers and spike belt:
 




7he Red - May 8, 2008

Okay, Halo-Life Episode Zero: Part Two is finally finished. Its crap.



And to make up for its suckiness, here is a little music video I was working on a while back. Maybe I'll finish it someday.



7he Red - May 4, 2008

Alright, Episode Zero Part Two is ready to be completed, but I've been far to busy working on the new intro for Halo-Life. Which is a parody of this:



The Death Note Season 2 Intro. Except hilarious. Remember that its supposed to be a parody, not a copy. Think Disadvantage Point.

7he Red - April 18, 2008

Well, after some testing, I discovered that I prefer our old video page format over the new one. So, we will be keeping the old one.

The PipEvc Series will begin sometime around Halo-Life Episode 5. And God knows when that will be... But I am much more interested in working on PipEvc: The Series than I am Halo-Life. Despite the fact that the first episode will be the most random crap you have ever seen.

I still want to finish all four parts of Halo-Life: Episode Zero, but I am still being held up by Billy and Jordan.

Seriously, guys. all I need is Billy saying "Why was I standing over your bed again?", and Jordan saying "He's out of control!". Is that really so much to ask?
