  <p>I'd like to try my hand at making a short 2-3 min film in CG. What I'm kinda envisioning is something like the clone wars series on disney+, but I think that's probably a bit advanced.

Are these good suggestions, or do I need something else?</p>
  <p>Since I've never done anything like this before and will probably be bad at it, I'm preferably looking for a free software, or a short subscription or cheap app. That way if I suck, its not that big of a loss. Any suggestions?</p>

Comments.Text: You could check out Blender. It's free and there are a lot of tutorials. I'm not doing much animations, so can't help you further.

Comments.Text: Lower your expectations. 2 or 3 minutes of CG can take you MONTHS even when you know what you are doing.
  
  Make a short clip of 10 seconds first.
