I believe nearly all of it is written by CCP employees. In fact, a lot of the earlier chronicles were by game designers doing it on the side. They have had dedicated authors. Tony G was one, he wrote the first and third books. Now, the ISD news articles I'm not so sure about. There are community volunteers who believe write some, but I'm not so sure. They used to be very frequent 4-5 years ago, more sporadic now.
as to the order, would you recommend starting at the top and working down or vice versa? or is it even in order? as a complete noob on the backstory side,( outside of each races 20 sec video on dusts' intro) this is ALOT to take in.
ps this lore associated with eve would seem to make AWESOME movie/videos/even animated, is their any video type stuff anywhere? |

There are a couple - have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXWf-l71MY4 as one excellent example of a Caldari-oriented film. I believe that CCP also have some plans for a lot more media in the future - they've been collecting player stories recently and a lot more besides. The trailers for EVE are pretty damn good as well, and there's a lot of them.
now that video is fu*king awesome. im not generally a fan of sci-fi stuff but im hooked on this dust/eve lore. i could see the film/media side of this making big dollars, as you wouldn't even need to know what eve was and could still be easily entertained by this, has to be something holding them back, that im not seeing.
could you point me in the direction of more of these? i prefer the amarr/minmatar conflict but any will do, thanks

Epic shots of Amarr ships to the tune of an epic movie soundtrack of some description. One of a set of four for all the races. Also, apparently EVE Online is getting its own tv show at some point. It may or may not be linked to the stories that CCP has been collecting, but here, have this. http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/movienewsandreviews/news/?a=84716
thank you VERY much, these videos are great, and that minmatar video (flag lll) was a thing of beauty. a metal band called "soulfly" would go hand in hand with minnies' tribal ways. being a big soulfly fan is what lead me to choose my minmatar clone (as i knew nothing of eve lore when i started dust)
i highly recommend anyone who reads this post to watch these videos. you WONT regret it
