Downtime - A Halo Machinima

Project Overview

Hello all, I'm EonThief and if this project seems familiar that's because I've posted about it before.

However, since the original casting call I've essentially I've revamped the premise and changed some characters now.

With that being said let me give you a general run down of the (possible) series. It follows Matt and his squad of spartans, now Matt isn't your average ordinary protagonist. The first episode the server is down and one of his squad mates isn't to happy about it.

For now I only have one episode written as I want to use this episode as a test of sorts so as of right now this is the only episode I have planned.

While I don't expect perfection I do still have some standards;


  • Have a decent mic

  • Little to no background noise

  • I may ask you to re-record some lines

  • I'll give a deadline for the lines but I will understand if you need an extra day or two

Other then that, if you get the role you can email me the files and of course choose what name you'll be credited under. Also while I don't know for sure the series may go on past the first episode if it does I'll have a discord set up so it will be easier to communicate with one another.

Latest Updates

  • Discord for production

    Hello, as I mentioned in the original casting call for this there was a possibility that I would turn this into a series proper, and if I did I would create a discord server for it. Well I decided to turn it into a series after all! and in turn I have created a discord to make production easier. The link of which you can find here: https://discord.gg/stXB3Eq
  • Deadline Will Be Pushed Back Due To Rewrites

    Hi, I've seen the auditions so far and they've been very good I've definitely seen some that I liked. As you can tell but the subject of the update, I've gone back over the script and essentially rewrote it and took some of the characters in a different direction. You won't need to re-audition if you already have, if you want to you can but it isn't necessary. That being said I am going to push the casting call back a bit while I edit the audition lines to give people more time to audition.

Noah is a bit of a slacker, he tends to forget to do things which tends to get him on Matt and Glen's bad side. He is a huge movie buff and usually spends his time watching them instead of working.

GLEN he's a simple man, he loves a cold beer in one hand and a shotgun in another. He doesn't like Matt much and the two tend to butt heads fairly often. Think close to Sarge from RvB, but of course put your own spin on him.

  • Well look what we have here! Who let the nerd out of his cave?

  • (irritated) what did you say?

  • (mumbling to self) you'd better walk away.

Warren is Matt's antithesis, the two hate each other. Warren tends to feign innocence, to hide his malicious side but make no mistake he has a deep disdain for Matt and will do what he can to make his life hell.

  • Hey Matty how are you!

  • (innocently) Why would you take that tone with me Matty, I'm hurt.
