The video is an example of advertisement where computer animation is used. Compare The Market (Compare The Meerkat) uses computer animation to show a Meerkat stood next to Steve talking to him. The animation is used as the vocal point of the advert to explain what the company can offer to you. The Meerkat became world famous and has even released a book!

This is the oldest form of animation. The Egyptian artists that created these pictures of men walking carrying objects are used to create an animation that is similar to a flip book. All these kinds of paintings/drawings are done to match the types of animation found in create arts.
Entertainment
In the movie Avatar, animation is used to create the mythical creatures. Real actors and actresses are used to create the movement using motion capture suits and the dialog is also done by the actors but the animation is done using computers and it adds the effects onscreen after the scene is done.
Education
Using this Disney website to actually create animation is one of the ways we used in animation in our education. This page allows you to make a flip book animation which you can view online to see how it plays out. You can also print out the animation on to paper and cut them to make little cards that will paper clipped together to form your flip book.
Simulation
In this simulation you see the animation of a saw coming down and going through the table. A simulation is a repeated animation of a process or information. Simulators are primarily used for online instructions to show are user how to complete a task.
