Line 11:
 
== Anime ==
* In the strictest sense not really an ''anime'' example perse but this was what a company called Toon Makers [[Toon Makers Sailor Moon (Animation)|had planned]] for ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' if they had gotten the rights instead of DiC's eventual [[Cut and Paste Translation]]. They were going to have the civilian scenes filmed in live action and then the girls would turn animated in a very Filmation's ''[[She -Ra: Princess of Power (Animation)|She Ra Princess of Power]]''-esque style when they transformed. Also they were going to go literally sailing... [[Space Sailing|in space]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=358ewVY2nko See here] the only available clip of (which was recorded from a convention screening on a camcorder hence the low quality & background noise) of what is commonly nicknamed "Saban Moon" due to people assuming the company who made it was Saban (they DID commission it).
 
 
Line 24:
 
== Film ==
* In the 1996 movie adaption of ''[[James and Thethe Giant Peach]]'', James, and an assortment of insect and arachnid friends, become claymation figures when they go inside the peach. Justified, since it is a ''magic'' peach, enchanted by crocodile tongues.
** Subverted at the end of the film where even though James changes back after climbing out of the peach, the insects all remain claymation.
* The ''[[Fat Albert Movie]]'' has an inversion. Fat Albert and the gang start out as cartoons, then become live-action when they jump through the TV screen.
Line 34:
** Holli's goal is to become "real" by having sex with a human. It works, but the effects are unstable, and she starts going back and forth between cartoon and live action.
* ''[[Stay Tuned]]'', where Roy gets [[Trapped in TV Land]] and after one channel switch, and becomes a cartoon mouse menaced by a giant cat.
* The end credits of the TV movie ''[[Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Across Thethe Second2nd Dimension]]'', in which the rock star [[Slash]] plugs into a tricked-out amp, with a spark of electricity that travels down the wire to his bass, which spreads to his body turning him from live action to animated.
* In ''[[Rock -a -Doodle]]'' - The owl sings musical notes, turning the little boy into an animated cat (as well as his room.)
* The 1970 movie ''[[The Phantom Tollbooth]]'', in which Milo enters a tollbooth, which makes him animated (he messes with this quite a bit, realizing what the tollbooth does), to get to the Kingdom of Wisdom.
* A [[Deleted Scene]] in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'' originally had Eddie Valiant gain an animated pig's head over his own head when he entered Toontown.
* Happens to Milo the Jack Russell terrier at the end of ''[[The Mask (Filmfilm)|The Mask]]'' after donning the Mask of Loki to fight off Dorian Tyrell's mooks.
* The fish in the film adaptation of ''[[The Cat in Thethe Hat]]'' starring Mike Myers.
* The Autobots and Decepticons in [[Transformers (Filmfilm)|the live-action ''Transformers'' films]] have CGI robot modes, but live-action vehicle modes.
* Zig-zag: [[Yellow Submarine]] caps off with the live action Beatles telling what they took with them from the movie as souvenirs (Paul's "love" appears in his hand animated), with John telling the others that singing will stave off an impending Blue Meanie attack.
 
Line 60:
** All of this was the result of an interactive storybook unexpectedly interfering with a large-scale holoprojector.
* The 2006 [[Cartoon Network]] television movie ''[[Re-Animated]]'', where Golly temporarily turns Jimmy into a cartoon knight on a horse, to save Robin from being run over by a train.
* There was a ''lot'' of this going on in the (partially animated) ''[[Farscape (TV)|Farscape]]'' episode "Revenging Angel," which transitioned between [[It Makes Sense in Context|"live action in the real world of the show" scenes, and the "live action cartoon scenes" and "animated cartoon sequences" inside John Crichton's head.]]
* In ''[[Life On Mars]]'' as a result of accidentally ingesting a drug {{spoiler|which one depends on whether Sam's really in a coma or really back in time}}, Sam has a hallucination in which he, Gene Hunt and a random sexual predator are all rendered in the same stop motion animation as in ''[[Camberwick Green]]''.
* In the ''[[Angel]]'' episode "Smile Time" Angel finds himself turned into a muppet like felt puppet, not strictly speaking a cartoon but related.
Line 69:
* ''[[Kidd Video]]'' - the band goes through a mirror after being taunted by Master Blaster (the [[Big Bad]]), and goes to the [[Flipside]] (an animated world) through a mirror.
* [[The Simpsons]]: In the second segment of a Halloween episode Bart and Lisa were sucked into a Itchy and Scratchy cartoon.
* ''[[Captain N: theThe Game Master]]'', in which Kevin, and his dog Duke are sucked into the Ultimate Warp Zone, and become cartoons in Videoland (it also appears that he got older in the process).
* ''[[Bobby's World]]'', where Howie occasionally turns into a cartoon for the show, during the [[Cold Open]].
* Inverted several times in the opening theme for ''[[Jackie Chan Adventures (Animation)|Jackie Chan Adventures]]''.
* This happens to Lucky Piquel in ''[[Bonkers]]'', which is a curious case as he was already animated but he changes from a realistic looking Disney human into a miniscule comedic looking toon. Much to his dismay given his attitude to toon shenanigans being less than a glowing one.
 
 
== Web Originals ==
* ''[[HewysHewy's Animated Movie Reviews (Web Video)|Hewys Animated Movie Reviews]]'' has a studio in the second dimension, where Hewy can host guest co-reviewers who are 2-D themselves. It gets destroyed when he tries to duplicate Flint Lockwood's food machine from ''[[Cloudy Withwith a Chance of Meatballs]]''.
