I seriously doubt that. Though Fate/Zero indeed has high production value for an anime TV series, its still not in the same level of animation as Korra or even the original Avatar series. If you look carefully at Fate/Zero you will find some "quality" animation and still scenes with little to no animation. Also the CGI used is cheaper than hand-drawn animation and in a way masks any imperfections. As for Avatar: TLAB and LoK you don't see any "quality" or badly done animation and hardly use a lot of CGI. There's a lot of action and the frame count used per second is high. From that you can tell that a very generous amount of money was provided in production.
