Template:Ratings Template:SeeWikipedia Template:Machinima
Template:FOF-1 Machinima is a type of CGI filming style, using pre-rendered models from videogames. Red vs Blue is a popular Halo:CE, Halo 2 and Halo 3 machinima. Other popular Halo machinima include The Codex, Fire Team Charlie, Spriggs, and This Spartan Life.
Another definition of machinima is posted at Halomovies.org:
"Machinima (muh-sheen-eh-mah) or machine cinema and/or "machine" "animation", is both a collection of associated production techniques and a film genre. As a film genre, the term refers to movies created by using tools and resources available in a commercial game engine. By combining the techniques of film making, animation production and the technology of real-time 3D game engines, Machinima makes for a very cost-and time-efficient way to produce films, with a large amount of creative control."
Machinima in Halo: Combat Evolved, such as Red vs. Blue (seasons 1, 2, and 3 before the Halo 2 Saga), was filmed using the pistol and panning using editing software. In the Halo 2 Saga, it was filmed using the gun-drop glitch, which left only the the HUD to be edited out in post-production.
The Theater Lobby, or saved films feature, in Halo 3, presented a large advantage to machinima makers, especially those like Harabek, Rooster Teeth, and Darkspire Films, using it better then a regular cameraman would.

Trivia
- Many players don't make machinima that have Elites in them. This may be due to the fact that in Multiplayer, Elite's jaws are visible and they don't move. This would result in the voice-over seeming unrealistic.
