This <2-minute intro was born out of necessity. A friend of mine was working on a "Machinema" story based on the popular X-Box 360 game, Halo 3.
The challenge was that the original plot idea was weak (gal plays too hard, overheats her X-box and it goes into "ring of death" and she gets sucked into the "game universe" and must find her way back to reality. Interesting concept, but not believable.
Enter me: I suggested we have a celestial event happen, something which, in a Star Trek kind of way, disrupts the space-time continuum. So he let me write the opening scene to his story.
Here is that scene (flash 9 player required):
