Halo: Forward Unto Dawn is an online advertising miniseries of 5 episodes which have been filmed by Microsoft to promote the release of the last part of their acclaimed videogame saga: Halo. I recognize am not a follower of this saga, and I have finished only the first part, I mean, am not much a lover of the Halo universe (although I know the basics about the story and its characters), but on any case, I have to admit that this advertising piece has pleasantly surprised me and I could enjoy it from the begining to the end. The true is that its technical finish and the cinematographic result are well above the usual in this kind of productions, I mean a simple resource of marketing to promote a game, and without forgeting this, we can find a great entertainment wrapped into a first class advertising campaign.
The plot is set around 20 years before the events which we can live into the game of Halo 4, I mean, by one side It uses like a nexus or prologue for the players, but it works as independent viewing as well. The story is starring by Thomas Lasky, member of one of the platoons recruitment of the academy of United Nation Space Command (UNSC) and future commander of the ship Infinity, who will feel inspired through the Master Chief (the enigmatic real protagonist of the saga).
In short, here I leave you the first 2 links (for the other ones, you will need looking by other ways),enjoy!
