  • Awesome Music:
    • The New Prime soundtrack by Post-Rock band Awake Awake and many other contributions from fans.
    • He frequently samples Sigur Rós.
    • The credits to The Last Scene use Mumford & Sons' "After The Storm".
  • Growing the Beard: And how. Compare the production qualities of Balloonshop videos to The Last Scene, then compare The Last Scene to New Prime. Then compare New Prime 2 to New Prime 5.
  • Special Effects Failure: A few times.
    • In New Prime 2 & 3, there are a few instances of debris that should be behind the characters crossing in front of them.
    • In New Prime 4, for whatever reason, Bob's candle is not actually lit, but a digital flame is inserted. However, the flame does not match the Color Wash of the rest of the video.
    • In New Prime 5, at one point a ship is hit with a missile and the explosion moves with the ship rather than remaining behind.
  • Tear Jerker:
    • New Prime 5
      • The scene by the fire where Zack reveals that he's The Empath to Ferris and tries to cheer him up.
      • Ferris almost dying at the hands of The Phantom.
      • Ferris' reunion with Brenda/Daniels' and Scar's deaths.
    • "LIFE UPDATE"
      • Olan discusses the turn of events leading to him moving away from all of his friends, including him being jumped by five people. He cries.
      • Another such mini-documentary narrates his goal of opening up a soda parlor in Nashville during 2014. Suffice to say, it was a monetarily and emotionally rough ride.
      • In his "Alone In Space" mini-documentary, which similarly details his journey through working on prepping Final Space for airing, Olan does not shy away from admitting how lonely and nerve-wracking it could get from the times he'd been away from Nashville.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: New Prime 5 was made with No Budget. Yeah.
