I didn't understand that this was an actual idea, but now that it's actually clear I am with swift and insanity on this one.
Personally, I don't have much experience with short film design or anything but I would assume that it would be painstakingly difficult to make an anime look at least semi decent. Not trying to shit on you
@SNC, but I think that pursuing this idea might result in you being way over your head. I wish you the best of luck though, as I think it would be cool to see actually come together, no matter how 'MS-Paint'-ish it ends up being.
To quickly address another issue that Scrummy brought up in his general 'shit on swift' rant, The podcast was very difficult to make.
Personally, I didn't have much of any role in post, but I was aware of the amount of hours swift was putting into actually making all of it come together. This also, isn't the first thing that swift has worked effortlessly on for the community. He's administrated the servers for years on end and been a part of almost any community event that I can recall. His Youtube videos have highlighted the servers, and I am sure, have attracted a new audience of people. Not saying that all of these together could amount to making a full fledged anime, but it's definitely worth something. For what it's worth, the podcast came out really nice and I think we can all appreciate that.
