Ever wanted to see our lovely HLP logo animated? Well, I've just done that The file is about 1.7mb. Thanks to karajorma for hosting it. Original logo design by Setekh, I just animated it.

I'd like to point out that this is a work in progress and still needs music or sounds. Suggestions and comments would be welcome.

I tried to post in this topic earlier and it wouldn't let me, said something about not being able to post with 30 secs of my last post.  Problem was it was a full 1:30 after I made my last post, anyway...

Wow. What are you doing it in?
And would you mind very much if it was used as part of a campaign's trailer movie?

now put in the words from the colossus cutscene "the following is classified level rho, etc, etc", and you've got a winner

Thanks for the comments.

@Windrunner:
Yeah, that's partly intentional. I made the flames a bit bigger when the logo first appears.

@Galemp:
The logo and fire is animated in lightwave. All the text and effects were added in After Effects. Feel free to use it, but keep in mind it isn't finished yet. And it might be good idea to get Setekh's permission too. It's his logo, after all.

@Singh:
That's actually pretty good idea. I might try it

[Gortef]

hey that really is pretty neat

[Night Hammer]

wow, very very nice....
