Gunners & Fools

Gunners & Fools

Project Overview

Gunners & Fools is a halo animated/machinima series surrounding a group of Spartans as they try to navigate the Human-Covenant war while unravelling UNSC conspiracies.

Currently the series has been fully written (Up to four seasons!) but we are producing the second episode right now, this project will take time and effort which is why we need your support to make this series the best it can be!

We are always looking for new folks to join in on the action, so send over a DM to take part!

Only skills you need are a friendly attitude and a good imagination!

Latest Updates

  • Complete Overhaul.

    Heya Folks!

    Long time no see! I had some PC troubles but now I'm back to work, I have some very interesting news to share... Gunners & Fools is getting a complete rebrand/overhaul!

    As you know, G&F is a halo fan series, but me and a few of our writers noticed our story usually "bends" the canon (a LOT), Just so it matches with the story we want to tell.

    But we realised, Why does it have to be halo?

    Our story is already pushing against the limits of the halo story, the only thing connected it to the series is some names and elements, So the team have taken a leap of faith and decided to recycle some of the characters and overall plot into our own series.

    Right now, there's no direction or idea for the future, but we'll just have to see!

    Cya later folks!

  • Main Theme in production!!

    Heya folks! just thought I'd let you all know that we have begun working on creating a Main Theme for the series! we have quite a few people working on it so far including guitarists, bassists, pianists, songwriters and singers!

    We are currently searching for a Drummer so if you or anyone you know would like to audition, Send a submission into the new role or send over a message on discord! (mrdesperadojones)

    Thank you! - Desperado

  • Role Updates!!

    Howdy there everyone! Just thought I'd give an update on the current open spaces as there are LOTS of people auditioning.

    "YourAvgTVGuy" has been casted for the roles of both "Watchdog" and "Colt". anyone else who auditioned, Don't worry! there's still plenty of spots that constantly open up so keep an eye here!

    The roles for "Musicians", "Writers", "Assist Animators" and "Extras" are always open so feel free to audition at any time! (If any of them say they are closed, I most likely forgot to reopen it lol)

    Thank you!

  • Halfway there!

    Episode 2 is nearly halfway through production!! The script is finished and the voice work is 90% done, all that's left is to record/animate the scenes and then edit it!

    The animation might take a while so please bear with us for a little longer!!

    Thank you!!

Gunner is the main character of the series! He's a gruff, late 40s Veteran with a cocky, "I'm better than you" attitude (Inside he's actually a very broken man trying to shut out everyone around him)


(P.S He will probably be the most important character in the series!)

The Commander

cast offsite

The Commander is one of the main antagonists of the series, He is a sly, dangerous puppetmaster who could easily mark anyone for death with a single order. 


He can switch between good cop and bad cop within a second, putting on a friendly mask for everyone around him, while also managing to snap anyone back into place if they dare bark back at him.


But... He is also known for having a short fuse, getting infuriated if things don't go as planned, he will stop at nothing to wrap up loose ends.


He doesn't have a set accent or anything, so feel free to experiment!

  • *Pissed* I want their helmets hung up on firing targets by tomorrow.

Colt

Role assigned to: YourAvgTVGuy

Colt is a Spaghetti-Western inspired anti-hero bounty hunter who occasionally shows up in the series (and will have his own short animations!) The voice I'm looking for is cold and menacing (Inspired by Deathstroke from the arkham series) or a less talkative type like Clint Eastwood in the dollars trilogy.


He has not shown up in the series yet, but is planned to be in a few parts soon.


a few voice inspirations I was thinking of:

Joshua Graham from Fallout: New Vegas

Deathstroke from Batman Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight

Clint Eastwood in the Dollars Trilogy

Deadshot from Batman Arkham Origins

  • Afraid it's the end of the line for you, pal

  • I don't work for the UNSC anymore, thought you already knew that

  • There's quite a number on your head at the moment, nothing personal.
