We Made a Half-Life 2 Documentary for Valve (Patreon)

Hey folks,

You know I don't tend to do posts about Secret Tape (our for-hire alter ego) on here but I know there's a lot of Half-Life fans on here, and we posted about last year's doc, so forgive me!

I talk about it a bunch in this month's Patron Show (going up tomorrow) but the crew spent a large amount of the past six weeks producing this documentary. We filmed 35 people in various cities in both West Coast US and Europe. We hunted down lawyers and voice actors and people we didn't get last year. All to create a 2 hour documentary that might be our finest work yet.

I know some of you are more online that others so I wanted to give you a heads up.

Massive thanks to Joey Fameli for filming so much of this with me, Olle Enqvist for going to Paris and boarding Gabe's boat, to Frank Howley for insane amounts of gameplay, to Jeremy for helping to film the local interviews and doing a bunch of color work, and Dan Silverstone for his awesome motion graphics.

And thanks to all of you for helping us build a documentary crew so well respected and well known that Valve came knocking, twice!

Last year I did a Thanksgiving Video about producing the HL1 documentary and I think this year I'm gonna do a full blown patron-exclusive director commentary so keep your eyes peeled for that.

If you have any questions about the documentary shoot them in the comments here and I'll happily answer the ones I can. Otherwise see you in the Patron Show tomorrow!
