How much is animated?

When I say "animated", I mean CGI - a lot of it is CGI. Such as this scene◊. There's a little live action in almost every shot, but anything that looks a little complex is 3D animated, rather than a prop.
Edited by Trogdor I do know what I'm doing. What I don't know is why.

Such CGI does qualify for live action, usually.

Strikes me that many of the animated examples would actually fit on one reel (10 minutes or less) and were usually placed before actual features. Perhaps an expansion of the description to cover? Or should it be a separate Trope?
If a short film is a fairly equal mix of live-action and animation, which list does it get put in? I placed "Tears Of Steel" into animated films because it was designed by an animation foundation, and designed to show off their animation tool, but I'm not too certain where to put it.
