Animal Logic tackles its next super-sized gig:
... [The] fx and production house ... is to lead the animation and visual effects work on BBC Worldwide’s AUS$65 million ($64 million) 3D feature Walking With Dinosaurs. ...
Walking With Dinosaurs 3D is one of a package of eight film and TV projects being backed by the NSW government’s $20 million Film Fund and the Industries Assistance Fund. ...
Animal Logic will also convert the final Happy Potter feature, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 into 3D and is also doing photo-real 3D animation and visual effects for a theatrical short feature, which will be used as a pilot for a large budget digital animation.
See? Animation isn't necessarily going to India. It's also going to Australia, France, New Zealand, and other spots on the globe. But big pieces of it will be remaining stateside, because that's where a big and talented labor pool is.
Walt Disney Animation Studios, DreamWorks Animation, Pixar, Rhythm and Hues and Sony Imageworks (among others) won't be passing out of existence anytime soon.

The article reads like Animal will be doing all the conversion, when in face they will be contributing a portion of the 2D to 3D conversion of the film. There are a number of other companies worldwide who will share the workload. In the US, UK, Australia, India...
Here, There and Everywhere is usually the way.
