The last line of dialogue is "This is the end". The closing credits then begin with the words WHO WAS SEEN IN WHAT SCENE ... AND WHO DID WHAT. The story is then recapped in 6 minutes of simple, minimally animated cartoon images, allowing the names of the many cast members who each appeared in just one scene to be shown in relation to that scene, often adjacent to a cartoon image of their character. The cast is therein listed in order of appearance. The character names don't appear. Some of the crew credits (WHO DID WHAT) are interspersed with the cast credits, with the remainder at the end. The very last thing shown is the film's title.
There are no opening credits. The film begins with Edward R. Murrow introducing the film. He mentions the title and talks about the original author Jules Verne. This prologue discussion involves Murrow narrating some documentary footage (some done especially for this film), and includes a showing of the complete short film A Trip to the Moon (1902) directed by Georges Méliès. Then Murrow fades into the actual story with no opening credits whatsoever.
At the end of the movie, an animation of Jules Verne with wings, standing on a cloud, in heaven above, holding out an open book, appears as the penultimate credit as "Based upon a book by". Following this is the title of the movie, and Verne's book, as the very last credit of all: inscribed script inside a pocketwatch clockwork. This is the only time the title of the film appears on-screen; the title is only spoken in the prologue about Jules Verne.
The majority of the miscellaneous crew credits occur in the closing, after the cast, over a minimal animation of a large crowd all in jail. Also with the crowd in jail are credits for the companies responsible for Color, the film Print, Releasing, and the Recording System, along with the Approved Certificate and Copyright info. Near the end are the major credits for the Producer next to a policeman coming with keys to unlock the jail cells, and the Director over the sole man liberated from the jail.
The Foreign Locations crew appear in the closing credits displayed over an animation of a crew of natives rowing a long boat.
The Associate Producer's animated closing credit is displayed next to a giant octopus underwater, directly beneath a tiny boat.
Edward R. Murrow's Prologue Narration credit appears in the closing credits with a man carrying a sandwich board advertising the main character's completion of his journey.
Several important crew credits appear in the closing credits with an animated procession. In order: Music over the leaders on horseback, Orchestration over a marching band, Screenplay over soldiers, 1st AD over rabble-rousers carrying picket signs, DOP over more musicians and a huge bass drum, and the 2nd unit DOP over firemen.
