Hi everybody.

I am doing a dance project. It's hard to explain what my intention is to do but simply put it I'm trying to create trippy and magical performance. For that I need all kind of weird , strange, magical, psychedelic animations, especially with creatures like elves, gnomes, monsters, unicorns, dragons, fairies, witches and wizzards etc as I'm going to use video projections in this performance.
I remember Mckenna was talking about some kind of animated series, I've seen them , but I totally forgot the name of it. If you know any of those, please post a link or just a name. Id doesn't has to be new thing, it can be 30 , 40 years old, as long as it's magical.

Thank you very much for your help!
 
only thing that comes to mind atm is a cartoon I love from the 1960's called Fritz the cat

Here is a small sample, it aint 100% of what you after but is close I think

I also watched this, yet again it aint 100% to your list but is amazing & fits close to your needs, plus the dubstep is by Zeds dead :)
 
The movie "The last Unicorn", the japanese movies "Princess Mononoke" and "Spirited away" as well as maybe "howl's moving castle", might have some images for you.

Not animated but the movie "The Fall" has some amazing imagery.

"Fantasia" is also very magical

MGMT’s "Time to pretend"

There is a japanese anime seeries called "fairy tail" but I don't know what it's like

The short Blender animation "Sintel" is very fantasy-like and features a dragon.
 
I saw "Paprika" for the first time while on mushrooms, and obviously I found the movie (the parade scenes in particular) very trippy. It's not really fairytal-y but it might be interesting to take a look at:

How could have I forgot that film :surprised :surprised :shock: :?

One of my all time Anime films of all time, I can only imagine watching it tripping 😁
 
Well I have to throw this in here folks........

If you really want to mess with the heads of the people that are going to watch it I suggest you watch & maybe take cuts from The Holy Mountain by Alejandro Jodorowsky.

Some of the animal scenes I promise you will never leave your mind ever again 😁 :twisted:

There are loads of bits from the film on Youtube to use but here is a very small taste of what it's like.

The Holy Mountain theatrical trailer


For me to use a image from the film as my avatar & have location as "The Holy Mountain" the film sure made it's impact on me & you did ask for "trippy" stuff

Not sure if it's what you're after but anything by Pha-Droid might be an inspiration:-​

Pha-Droid is amazing Cyb. Glad someone on here knows about them. Ive seen them live 3 times now. So amazing and beautiful! Android Jones is an amazing visual artist especially with his 3d mapping.

Yes the Holy Mountain is an unforgettable film but a good one haha. it will provide some unusual video if you find it suiting lol.

From the amazing film Renegade. Check it out if you havent!


Animated Flying Lotus track.


DMT scene from the film Enter The Void


An animation from Portisheads We Carry On


Or anything from the films Waking Life, Mirror Mask or Fantastic Planet.
 
you will be hard to find a more bizarre and obscure cartoon than Fantastic Planet:

Also, can't go wrong with the classics like The Care Bears:

And THIS one will give you a flashback even if you've never taken a psychedelic:

wow,i did not expect so may answers and so much material to work on! thank you everyone, ou helped me a lot. now it's hard work time.

peace and unity to us all.
 
I know this has been inactive for a little bit but I thought I'd recommend a very talented filmmaker named Jan Svenkmajer. He does a lot of stop-motion animation stuff but also does weird stuff with it like combing it with live action film. Very unique. Check these out:
The Ossuary and Other Tales (compilation of shorts)
Alice! (It's his take on Alice in Wonderland)
Faust

Enjoy!
