Escape from City 17 - Bolty - 09-17-2011
Almost two years ago, the Purchase Brothers released a video called Escape From City 17 - Part One. Taking place in the Half-Life universe, it was about resistance fighters who were attempting to flee the city before the Citadel went nuclear.
What was remarkable about it was the insanely small budget - like $200 - to make it. It made some waves at the time due to its effects.
Last month, they finally put out a sequel - again, made with a budget of $250.

A budget of 250 dollars?
So they did this without a computer and it costed them 2 hours to make it?

Claymation maybe.

I'm sure they're claiming that budget by saying they already had most of the stuff they used, and are not factoring in their time.
Still, impressive on a "low" budget, whatever that low budget may be.
