Production notes

Release date reflects DVD release date in Canada; U.S.A. release was on May 25, 2010.

"Race" is an independent sci-fi action film, animated in 3D Max, and geared toward an audience somewhere between gamers and fans of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" (It's rated PG-13 for "some suggestive images and action violence"). The project is the first self-produced feature from Hyper Image, a Post Production and Animation Studio in Glendale, California. Hyper Image spent about seven years in development, production, post production for this film, followed by a long search for distribution.
