Animation: 2D, 3D or both

Since I'm working on learning animation, I go looking for good information on techniques, styles, and effects from time to time.  There is so much good work to see, especially on YouTube.  One thing I learned yesterday is to do the animated parts in 2D and the background in 3D.  Good to know.

Here Jazza of Draw with Jazza shows how he develops a character.

This delightful 3D animation, A Fox Tale, reminds me of Samurai Jack.

Below is a trailer for the CGI 2D/3D animation titled Colombiana; it's by Planet Jump Productions and published on YouTube by The CG Bros.  You may recall the movie Colombiana was a 2011 French-American action film co-written and produced by Luc Besson and directed by Olivier Megaton.

This last sample--Telescope--is a film with CGI elements.  It's included because it is arresting and just plain beautiful.
