There isnt anything particuarly special about TGE where making Machinima in it would be different than making it with any other engine.

If you want to learn how to make Machinima you can view this site: http://www.machinima.com/article.php?article=302

IF you want to learn how to make TGE you are at the right place, check out this page:

It is up to you to put them together =)

No there are not, but, you would probalby want to look at tutorials on these topics which would be helpfull which do exist for TGE, and are important for machinima:

-Modeling
-Animation
-Camera Scripting

The main problem with doing machinima in Torque though is that you have to do most of the content yourself. Where instead modded an existing game, you would have all the games content to use for your machinima. On the other hand, the advantage of TGE is that you would have a lot more control and could do exactly what you wanted, it will just be more work =)

There's an actual machinma series done in TGE you can use as reference.
