While Saber Interactive produced the cutscenes in-engine in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'', digital animation company [[Blur Studio]] (who previously worked on the ''[[Halo Wars]]'' cinematics) was contracted to create pre-rendered CGI cinematics for ''Halo 2: Anniversary''. This was a considerable undertaking, as the game's cutscenes contain a total of 58 minutes of footage.

The character animations were created through [[Wikipedia:Motion capture|motion capture]] technology; the new models for certain characters, such as [[Miranda Keyes]] and [[Avery Johnson]], are also modeled after their motion capture actors. The action scenes, which involve a great deal of movement on part of the characters, proved a challenge for the actors, particularly because the facial and bodily performances were captured separately.
