Many of the animation software companies such as e-frontier, reallusion and others have their own and there are 3rd party online stores that sell content for their software that is developed by “indies.”

That is one way.

Establish a service to create animated banners for businesses.

Making an animated movie: Have you watched the list (like at the end of a Pixar movie) of 100s or perhaps 1000s of people who have worked for years to produce a top quality animation.

Not sure exactly how much you can make.
