In the past, I listed still and motion graphics that augmented human motions by using various techniques such as pixel stretching (Weekly Design Inspirations #7 — Sculpting Motions: Strokes of Colors that Track Human Motion). Similarly, there are numbers of video works that augment movements of people or objects using 2D animation. Some of these colorful works almost bring fun fantasies into the real world, and others are witty and clever. Today, I selected ten videos like that, which overlays 2D cel animations or graphics amongst numbers of inspiring works.

1 — Hermès “New York Time” by Christoph Niemann
