Changes to my project due to The Coronavirus Outbreak

Unfortunately my project has stalled for a few weeks while I figure out how to proceed with my project. My original project was going to compose of 5 finished scenes that would've come together to compose a trailer. However with what I've got to work with at home, this simply isn't possible. At uni I'm using a full cintiq setup, however at home I'm using a Microsoft Surface Go which simply isn't strong enough to run animation software such as Toonboom or Maya.

The idea of sitting on a rooftop is inspired by more eastern anime imagery for example in Kingdom Hearts. Verdict I definitely think this scene suits a motion comic well, there is a lot I can do with the art style and with more simple After Effects movement that I can run on my tablet without overrunning it.
