A good reference for making special pixel art drawings (cinematics) are the games of the PC98, a Japanese computer brand from the 80s.

Although most of them were hentai games, it has very useful examples, especially if you make VX ace RPG maker games as they are adapted for that screen size (640 x 480).

I find the good use of space and compositions very useful and ingenious, as well as the selection of colours and the use of dithering to give textures.
