I love full animation, but some of the best online video storytelling I know is limited or roughly drawn or animatic. Two metaphorical planks and a passion.

There's a lot of amazing animated things that are low budget. For example, Hanna Barbera is very doable with a low budget.  Hell you want an example that actually is the animation look at Mike judges early shorts. Those are indie those were expensive at all, and yet he made them with what he got

Yeah, finally thank you. I swear people seriously expect artist to make multimillion dollar projects, which isn't even possible for most people. However, you can animate in things. Low budget isn't bad. There's nothing wrong with cutting corners.

Also definetely study those old toons. Especially the Hanna-Barbara ones from late 50s to early 60s. Despite that they were made on a budget, you'll see those cartoons were put together by really experienced cartoonists who figured out how to work within those limitations.

Shows like Top Cat or Dastardly and Muttley are proof that shows can succeed on limited animation as long as the plots and dialogue are written well. It's all about giving us a reason to care about the characters...
