Mahinema is the site that they used to create Red vs. Blue and loads of other shows that are made through video games.

Answer 1

Firstly Machinima is a method of making movies using game engines, rather than a site.

Most often people use a recording program like fraps that records whats on your computer screen and the soung being played at that time. This ties in with a backup sound program like Teamspeak or similar so that you can talk to each other and the voices will be recorded as sound in the video.

You'll need to find unique looks for each character as each game is usually limited in options, like in Red Vs Blue you have different colour armours. You will also have one person who will use the spectator view or a similar view and act as the camera(usually using the beefiest computer as you'd need to run the game, the video recording software and speech software at the same time.

The rest follows the same rules as making any other TV show.
