The first sequence of the Hearst Castle was rotoscoped from Steven Lisberger's film and animated in Cosmic Cartoon. Lisberger did much of the matte painting, figure rotoscoping and airbrush painting, and Eric Ladd did the Earth rotation animation.

Eric Ladd and Steven Lisberger created "Cosmic Cartoon"--one of the strangest and trippiest cartoons of a very strange and trippy decade! While you'd NEVER see any animation like it today, in a way it's an interesting window into the psychedelic 70s.I really cannot adequately describe "Cosmic Cartoon"--mostly because it's a completely visual piece without a traditional narrative. You'll see planets as the film begins and the camera seems to descend to the surface of a planet where you eventually see an animated nude dancing about for some time. It's all set to some wonderful music and the overall effect is less a cartoon and more like something you'd see in a modern art gallery. I really liked it--especially because the 70s were not good to animation and "Cosmic Cartoon" shows that some people really DID care back then. Worth seeing.
