Similar to Art Shift and Art-Style Clash, but instead of styles blending, it's the blending of animation/filming techniques used to tell a story. This can come in a lot of flavors like live-action in cartoons, animated segment, or animation warping. Live-action in cartoons is pretty straightforward: it just means there's a filmed part in a cartoon with live actors. An animated segment is the exact opposite, where a live-action show or movie gets a part that's given some traditional 2D, 3D, or stop-motion part. Animation warping technically keeps an animated show animated, but with a different style than the norm, like traditional 2D animation into 3D. It's probably easier to just list them all as Medium Blending for the moment, as some examples can get tricky with multiple different varieties. This is the exact opposite of how traditional special effects are used. Instead of supplementing a medium with material of a different source that is meant to blend in, this is meant to stand out. Proper examples of Medium Blending make it blatantly obvious it is different, and it sticks out on purpose. This can happen with a dose of Medium Awareness sometimes, as well. Has nothing to do with making coffee, either. A Super-Trope to Roger Rabbit Effect. See also Animated Credits Opening, Medium-Shift Gag and Sudden Video-Game Moment. Compare 2D Visuals, 3D Effects, Painted CGI, Indecisive Medium and Sprite/Polygon Mix. Has the risk of running into GIS Syndrome if done poorly. |

InFAMOUS adopts a comic-book style for its cutscenes. The game also does this in its world building. Finding a TV will show a news anchor for USTV who recounts every one of your story mode missions, only omitting a mention of Cole / Delsin and instead claiming that the problem was solved by the government. | |

Olympia Kyklos is from the same author of Thermae Romae and has the same premise: guy from ancient Greece goes back and forth from his village to 1964 Tokyo, home of the Olympic Games. The anime adaptation is made in a blend of stop-motion and CG animation, on top of that all the Ancient Greek character are claymation puppets made to look like statues, and all the Japanese characters are flat paper cutouts made to resemble kamishibai (paper theater) characters. There's also a bit of live-action here and there, mostly for Zeus' appearances. | |

An unusual example in the French movie The Brain (Le Cerveau, 1969). The eponymous Brain (played by David Niven) is exposing to his henchmen his plan for a future train heist... with the projection of a short animated film, starring himself. The real heist goes much less smoothly that the one shown in the animation, of course. | |

Lollipop Chainsaw's artstyle tries to look like a '70s or '80s comic book as much as possible, and succeeds in doing so. All character models have outlines around them, and the game uses a very unique and stylish shading technique in order to achieve this look. Several times, the game even shifts to a comic book illustration, like on the menus, loading screens, game over screen, character profile cards, etc. | |

In K, the show's preview clips had quite an impact for their art, most notably the different mediums. There's the traditional stop-motion anime style for characters and objects in the foreground, but there are also live-action segments for some backgrounds and certain motion sequences. The styles blend in a strangely appropriate way and are conducive to the somewhat ephemeral and uncanny premise of the show. | |

Joe Diffie: The official music video for "Leroy the Redneck Reindeer" initially flips between real and animated, but towards the end the mediums start mixing, with a group of live-action kids dancing with an animated Leroy and then an animated Santa subsequently joining in, and ending with Diffie and the kids (still live-action) riding along with Leroy in his truck (both animated). | |

An episode of Kamen Rider Wizard has a sequence where Nitoh tried to catch a lost bird with birdseed, only to be completely mobbed by pigeons while a bemused Haruto looks on. The entire sequence was played out as colored manga panels with voice-overs, presumably because depicting that scene in live-action would be a bit expensive. | |

Notably a Deep-Immersion Gaming moment between Thirteen and Taub, with their in-game avatars seen discussing the diagnostic while blasting monsters. Later, the patient also hallucinates the decors and characters of his game supplanting the hospital and staff, respectively. | |

Cuphead is usually animated like an old cartoon from the '30s and '40s with flat-colored characters on top of watercolor backgrounds. Certain bosses like Djimmi and Grim Matchstick instead are set against rotating model backdrops, an homage to Fleischer Studios' "stereoptic process" used most famously in Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor. | |

In Waltz with Bashir, the majority of the film is in two-tone, dreamlike animation until the protagonist remembers encountering a procession of women lamenting their slain husbands and children. At that point, the film switches to real footage of the aftermath of the Sabra and Shatila massacre, making it all too real for both the protagonist and the audience. | |

The cartoon portion of Yellow Submarine concludes with a slow dissolve to the live-action Beatles. Also, the end of "All Together Now" shows photographs of a person's head flying through the air, the scene where the Beatles escape Pepperland features a montage of photographs, and George's entrance features him standing in front of tinted live-action clouds. (In case you can't tell, it's a rather odd movie!) | |

While most of the Dream SMP takes place on a Minecraft server (excluding content creators' facecam), there have been a couple of media-related shifts throughout the series. There have been a few scenes that take place entirely in live-action, including The Stinger of Quackity's 1st and 4th "Las Nevadas" streams (the former showing his plan to torture Dream until he gets the revive-book, and the latter being a merchandise advertisement) and the first Stinger of Wilbur's lore finale (of him returning to Utah). The second Stinger of Wilbur's lore finale is an animation by Twitter user scivious_, depicting friend the sheep being dropped off to Ghostbur via the Afterlife Express. The Wilbur Van is presented on Archive of Our Own as a short story, though this is enforced due to the content creators involved having issues in (presumably) scheduling for lore streams. |

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has the Spot intruding on two alternate dimensions as his powers begin to expand. One is Earth-13122 — the LEGO Spider-Man dimension (done in stop-motion ala The LEGO Movie). The second is Earth-688 — the live-action Venom (2018) cinematic universe. Conversely, Earth-96283 and -120703 (Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Spider-Man universes respectively) both appear in live-action as hologram footage in the Spider-Society, and multiple characters appear in the flesh in distinctly different styles from the world around them — such as 60s Cartoon Spidey, Insomniac's PS4 Spidey, and even Donald Glover's live-action Uncle Aaron (who may be either the MCU's iteration directly or an alternate-universe version). | |

The End of Evangelion shifts to a short live-action sequence around the middle of the second half, showing shots and pans of cityscapes, crowded streets, and a theatre, set to the serene tones of "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by Johann Sebastian Bach. What is notable is that it even slyly plays a bit further with the trope by inserting quite a few fictional elements into the otherwise "real-world" shots; one of the cityscapes contains several buildings that are taken straight out of the fictional Tokyo-3's skyline, and one of the crowded street shots has Misato, Rei, and Asuka's voice actresses in cosplay as their characters with their backs to the camera. Originally a longer and more story-driven live-action sequence was planned, wherein Shinji is shown an extremely mundane (and somewhat melodramatic) alternate world where neither the Evangelions, the Angels, or NERV exists, but with the further twist that he himself doesn't exist either in this world. In this world, Asuka is in her mid-twenties and romantically involved with Toji, Rei is a normal Office Girl who's possibly sleeping with her boss, and so on. In the Gainax Ending to the series, some of the photos shown as Shinji's self-hate is discussed are also live-action. The ending of Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time shows Shinji and Mari leaving a train station to Ube, complete with a real life shot of the city. |

Pirates SMP: A vast majority of the series takes place in Minecraft, primarily livestreamed but also occasionally involving pre-recorded segments. That being said, there are some exceptions to the rule: In Owen's 1st episode, a brief flashback of his and Tubbo's first and rather violent encounter a few weeks before Day 1 is presented in live-action. The same flashback additionally serves as Tubbo's series trailer, interspersed with clips of a Minecraft adaptation of their duel (which looks significantly less dramatic by side-by-side comparison due to gameplay limitations). Several important scenes and flashbacks are animated and/or drawn, including Kuervo's introductory sequence and flashbacks to the past, as well as several major character Plotline Death scenes. Will's backstory is partially told through short stories on his content creator counterpart's Tumblr blog. |

Homestuck is usually a normal comic (at least in terms of art), but often shifts into animated GIFs, Flash animations, and the occasional RPG-like interactive sequence. The latter two have "[S]" before the page name; seeing [S] in an update usually indicates an inbound Wham Episode. Later, the webcomic takes this further with the introduction of Claymation. The Loose Canon Paradox Space story "A Fun Day For Jaspers" starts with two still panels, but ends an animated gif showing Rose talking as her speech becomes incomprehensible to Jaspers. |

The Disney animated film Treasure Planet, in the same vein as other animated works at the start of the new millenium such as Titan A.E. and Atlantis: The Lost Empire, utilized both traditional and computer generated animation in almost equal measure to truly impressive effect. While nearly all of these movies bombed at the box office, few would argue it was due to their animation not looking nice enough. What made Treasure Planet particularly remarkable was that the character of Cyborg John Silver had all his cybernetic parts like his leg, arm, and eye, rendered in CG while the rest of him was traditionally animated. The end result is nothing short of breathtaking. Sadly, due to the collapse of the theatrical hand-drawn animation market that took place soon thereafter, the concept of blending pure CG with hand-drawn animation never really had a proper chance to prove itself. | |

The Farscape episode "Revenging Angel" not only has several Warner Bros.-esque full animation sequences, it also mixes animated characters with live-action (e.g. the Genie-like morphing Aeryn). Thanks to Crichton having a semi-lucid dream while in a coma, and Scorpius is not amused at being turned into a Looney Toon with anvils dropped on his head. | |

Don't Eat the Neighbours: CGI is used to supplement things that would be hard to pull off with the puppets, such as distant shots showing the characters' entire bodies. Depending on the set, sometimes the CGI models are simply overlaid onto the sets and even on screen with puppet actors, or sometimes the entire shot, characters and scenery, are composed with CGI. | |

Done masterfully with several of the minigames in Daughter for Dessert, in which elements of well known video games and mobile games are inserted into the gameplay. This is especially true in the video game arcade scene when the protagonist takes either Heidi or Veronica there, and plays a faithfully reproduced 80s video game (the player has a choice between Pong, Asteroids, and Centipede). | |

Team America: World Police is mostly filmed using cheap marionettes, but the sharks in Kim Jong-il's Shark Pool that devour Hans Blix are living nurse sharks (which are about one, maybe two, feet long), and the "panthers" that come close to eating Sarah and Joe are played by two black house cats. Kim Jong-il's true "alien form" is also played by a live cockroach and Kim's giant statue of himself is actually portrayed by a "living statue" mime. | |

Animator vs. Animation takes place in a realistic computer, and the original trilogy is about drawn stick figures coming to life and fighting the Animator, exploiting (and wrecking) the computer interface in the process. This trope even applies to other stick figures, as in the fourth video, the stick figures from an internet website look very different from the stick figures drawn by The Animator. And then there are video game crossovers, particularly in Animation VS Minecraft and the following AVM Shorts series. |

Bear in the Big Blue House was mostly a puppet show, but used animated elements to show things from character's imaginations or to show the word of the day from each episode on the screen. Up until the fourth season, there was also a regular segment in which real kids talked about stuff related to the theme of the episode. Additionally, Shadow was a shadow puppet instead of the normal puppetry and presented Shadow stories in this style. | |

The short-lived but memorable NBC series The New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn had Huck, Becky and Tom fleeing a vengeful Injun Joe across time, space, legend and fiction. The three were live-action - almost literally everything else they interacted with was animated. | |

morphE is designed with this in mind. It's a webcomic made to click through (and occasionally play like) a visual novel. The reason why is that the creators envisioned the project as a visual novel but wanted to make the project a gradually updating medium. The compromise was to make a visual novel that updated 3 times a week and add interactivity elements where possible. Recently they added their first "cut scene" cinema sequence. | |

In 9 to 5, Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda and Dolly Parton get stoned and fantasize about killing their boss. All three fit the Art Shift trope, as the fantasies are filmed in distinctly different styles from the rest of the movie, but Lily Tomlin's features adorable animated wildlife surrounding her in the office kitchen as she poisons his coffee. | |

The anime based on High Score Girl, a story that is all about 90s arcades and video games, renders in CG the author's designs and features a lot of actual video game footage. So we have some decidedly surreal moments, such as when the protagonists are playing Mortal Kombat: two super-deformed cel-shaded CG Japanese people controlling 2D sprites of digitized real-life American people, which look "more real" than them despite the graininess. | |

Although The Mind's Eye series is meant to showcase advances in computer animation from the '90s, a handful of sequences use live-action videos. In the RadioShack version of The Mind's Eye (specifically the segment "Civilization Rising"), there appears to be a person magically creating a carousel of animals. The way the clothes move would have been cloth simulation too advanced for the early 90s. Beyond has a few instances of this. "Afternoon Adventure" is mostly a walkthrough of a forest with its animated components (a small bee and a larger hornet) set up to appear as if one is chasing the other. "Too Far" features some faceless eyes watching a TV, which appears to be showing a live-action soccer game. There are also stylized musicians which appear to be playing in front of monochrome clouds. "Windows" shows a string of live-action images moving into an eye. "Theater of Magic" has some live-action faces on the walls of what seems to be a museum. Seconds later, a "painting" shows a live-action shot of a building getting demolished, along with smoke that persists into the next shot.note Smoke would have been very hard, if not impossible, to do in CGI in 1992. However, a 1996 movie named Twister features a CGI tornado. The Gate's "Valley of the Mind's Eye" features an actor appearing for a few seconds inside a computer-generated building at two different points. Odyssey's "Unstoppable" features Richard Strange (who appeared as background characters from Batman (1989), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves) interacting with a computer-generated security terminal. |

A rare live-action example is "Zilla" (a.k.a. "GINO") who was officially put into Godzilla canon in Godzilla: Final Wars, faithfully rendered in full CGI unlike the other monsters. The sheer cost of rendering him might explain why it's also one of the shortest battles in the series, though cynical fans loved the idea of Godzilla taking him down within a minute. It's also worth noting that the CGI used in the above scene is of lesser quality than the 1998 film. Take that as you will. | |

"Theater of Magic" has some live-action faces on the walls of what seems to be a museum. Seconds later, a "painting" shows a live-action shot of a building getting demolished, along with smoke that persists into the next shot.note Smoke would have been very hard, if not impossible, to do in CGI in 1992. However, a 1996 movie named Twister features a CGI tornado. | |

Homestar Runner uses several different varieties of Art Shift meant to resemble different techniques, but most of them are all still just animated in Flash and don't count. The most notable genuine example of Medium Blending would have to be the puppet segments and the band Limozeen. Also, the Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer, Strong Mad's claymation short "Doug the Dino" in the email "the facts", and the music video in "death metal" (with a live-action intro and stop-motion "creeping, rusty meat"). | |

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt: The series is done almost entirely in Thick-Line Animation, but when the Monster of the Week blows up, the show cuts to a blatantly obvious live-action model on an equally obvious city set, possibly as a reference to Super Sentai. In the last episode, Panty and Stocking's ultimate attack is the live-action lower half of a women (possibly their mother) wearing lingerie coming down through the clouds to stomp Corset to death. Unlike the ghost explosions, this was shown together with the animation, which a DVD extra shows was quite difficult to produce. |

In Doom, most of the enemy sprites, as well as Doomguy's, are made with Stop Motion, but some like the Imp and Cacodemon are hand-drawn, and the Former Humans are Head Swaps of Doomguy whose heads were hand-drawn rather than clay models. Nonetheless, they all blend seemlessly. | |

In a 2001 spot for the National Cheese Board, a city (live-action with live citizens) is getting decimated from an alien invasion. The citizens look into a window pleading for help. The figure they're pleading to is Mighty Mouse, who motions for them to wait until he leisurely finishes his cheese snack. The spot was pulled soon after as many thought it was too close after the 9/11 attacks. | |

Waldo C. Graphic on The Jim Henson Hour is a CGI "virtual puppet" who interacts with the regular Muppets. The same technique was used for the mosquitos in Muppet Treasure Island, Tizzy Bee in The Animal Show, and Horace D'Fly in Kermit's Swamp Years, all of which were far too small to be normal puppets, and the Wizard's disguises in The Muppets' Wizard of Oz, which were "special effects" in-universe. | |

Due to the variety of settings featured in Kingdom Hearts, this is prevalent throughout, but particularly apparent in Kingdom Hearts II. The environments and characters from Timeless River, Halloween Town, Space Paranoids, and Port Royal are all designed as closely to their source material as possible, whereas the rest of the game has a fairly standard 3D style. In the case of the first three worlds, even Sora and other original characters are redesigned to match their respective styles. The realistic designs from Pirates of the Caribbean don't quite blend as well, however. | |

FLCL: There's a whole live-action sequence used in the credits in which Haruko's yellow Vespa moped is seen riding itself around a city. (It actually belonged to character designer Yoshiyuki Sadamoto.) There also two short scenes in which the animation reverts to manga. And a shift to South Park-style cutouts when Amarao gets a haircut. Amaro's eyebrows aren't drawn like everything else, they're made by scanning processed seaweed and digitally adding them to his face. |
