A new Half-Life Fan Film is in the works, and it looks promising.
Remember 2008? The days where Half-Life 2: Episode Three felt like it was only a little while away and Machinima actually had Machinima on it’s channel. It’s time to take a trip down memory lane and revisit a classic Machinima series: The Gman Squad.
Last week we saw the release of a teaser trailer for a live action fan film, ‘Left 4 Dead – The Movie‘.
Initially created by a small filmmaking company known as Mexican Standoff in 2009, the production has been underway for over five years and is almost coming to completion.
We caught up with the film’s director, Daniele Bellucci to ask him some questions about the movie.
In November 2009, a small filmmaking production studio called Mexican Standoff started working on a non-profit fan film based on Valve’s hit zombie shooter Left 4 Dead.
A trailer for the upcoming film, simply entitled ‘Left 4 Dead – The Movie‘ was just uploaded to YouTube and has already gained some traction, check it out:

Damn. That’s all I can say. This simply stunning tribute music video uses a song originally written for “Prince of Persia”, but it fits near-perfectly here. Absolutely amazing work. Enjoy it after the jump.
It was just another day at the LG office. The dirigible had crashed again, and I was alone… again.
I desperately tried to think of something to write about… but found nothing.
Then I found this.
Very nice!

A new Half-Life Fan Film is in the works, and it looks promising.
Half-Life: The Downfall of Evolution is an upcoming Half-Life live action fan film series.
We previously covered the same project in October last year when it was going under the name ‘Lambda Protocol’ with a slightly different team. It’s not quite clear what happened to the original crew or why the name changed apart from the mention of a copyright issue involving Machinima Prime.
Despite the branding changes, the movie still looks as visually epic as ever, check out the new teaser:
An animator known as Tim Hijlkema recently uploaded an amazing short film that reimagines scenes from a list of 15 popular video games, including Half-Life, Left 4 Dead and even spin-off Source mod The Stanley Parable.
Welcome to the first article of the ‘Cinematic Spotlight’ series, a new feature being introduced to the film/multimedia section on LambdaGeneration.
“Vae Victis” (Latin for “Woe to the Vanquished”) is a 2009 machinima series created by Eddie Smithson and published by Machinima. Vae Victis is well written and features a fairly equal mix of action and storytelling. With great filming and effects, but a disappointing ending, Vae Victis is still definitely worth checking out.
