Weta Workshop helps create Halo 3 short film

Weta Workshop, a film production company which also specializes in high-end, intricate and highly realistic artifacts and replicas, has been helping to produce a live action Halo 3 short film. The first released and teased at E3 this week, is titled “Arms Race.”

The live action project was put together by Bungie Studios, director Neill Blomkamp, WETA Workshop and Origami Digital, LLC.

Here’s the video…

Parent company WetaNZ also owns Weta Collectibles which produces high-end replicas for consumer purchase. As of yet, no Halo products have become available but, with the popularity of Halo and the money Halomaniacs are willing to toss as stuff, I suspect something uber cool will be available pretty dern soon. A weapon or helmet, perhaps?
