Bullet Rebel | Blood Moon (Halo 5 Machinitage) @BulletRebel | Uploaded 8 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Hard to believe that this Halo 5 montage is done after losing the entire project file when Blood Moon was almost finished. I had entirely lost my motivation to start the entire project anew, and my self-esteem was even worse. I felt there was no point in starting over because my Halo montages would never reach the popularity or quality of montages from people like Hyena, Dino or the guys from E&F... It takes me months to make what takes them a few weeks. I have never associated myself or interacted much with other editors in the Halo community. I've always been on my own path, which has its good and bad sides I suppose. Even after the incident with my project file, I somehow managed to pull myself together and completely make Blood Moon from scratch again, even if it was with less heart and passion than the first time.
Every single one of these clips where hit in high Onyx / Champion tier except for the last one which was Diamond. During my Free-For-All grind, I would often get placed in lobbies with 4+ Champions which made me frustrated and made me doubt the worth of getting high rank clips, because I would frequently tell myself that no one would care, they would simply judge the clip based on what they see in the montage. I would often go for the same clip multiple times because I wasn't satisfied with how It looked the first few times I hit them. Often, the first time would be in low tiers like Platinum or Diamond, but I would go for them again once I reached Onyx / Champion, and again because I didn't like how I died right after hitting the clip, and then again, again, again.
I'm crazy, I know.
The Allegory of the Void ends with this final montage. I know the entire story is confusing. Maybe I'll explain it, maybe I'll leave it to interpretation. This is a rare project in the sense that the Allegory of the Void is much more personal than any other Halo montage, one clip edit, or other content I've made. The story is essentially about how I view myself as an editor, how my often twisted mind influences my content and the evolution of my emotional state.
Halo 5 has drained my will and energy. I don't care if this video doesn't get many views. I don't care if you think my clips are bad. I don't care if you dislike my transitions or lack thereof. I'm just too tired to care anymore. I have no plans to continue editing videos of a game that provides me with features that either are broken, buggy or nonexistent. I might decide to continue editing Halo 5 videos and make a few more smaller-scale montages and one clip edits, or I might go back to other games. As of now, my future as an editor is uncertain...
I cannot thank you enough for helping me with this montage, Nick. You're always there for me when I need you no matter what problems life throws at you. Stay strong.
