Early Installment Weirdness/Machinima


 * When the Yogscast started their Minecraft series (speaking only about the main episodes, not the side episodes like the mod spotlights), it was created as a Let's Play of Minecraft (complete with showing how to survive the first night). It eventually evolved into one of the most well-produced machinima series ever made.
 * Also, Lewis had never played the game before, so Simon did most of the work. After Lewis became more familiar with the game, the role was flipped, and Lewis usually took charge.
 * The first season of Red vs. Blue had the cast use voice filters to try and simulate the effects of helmets on their speech. This was removed in the second season since it made it difficult for viewers to understand them.
 * Church originally was a  rather than an , so early on, especially before they decided to actually go beyond about 10 or so episodes (which was the original plan), Church was capable of doing things that he could not do in later seasons.
