We are determined to create an animated series. Since a full-fledged CGI animation is very expensive, we have to take a step back and tell our story as a comic book. But TheDRIVER: Intro of the Phantom is no ordinary book. It is an animated comic book that uses Augmented Reality (AR) technology. When you point your smartphone to the 2D comic book panels, you’ll see the animated car chase on the page.
Here is our augmented reality demo.
If this sends your mind into overdrive—back our campaign, so that we can hit our stretch goal and send more excitement your way.
Here's a taste of TheDRIVER full animated short.

No one knows the true identity of TheDRIVER. Each night, he emerges like a shadow, joining a pack of evil street racers. He moves faster than any racer in town—using speed to demolish speed. Jacob knows bad guys never play by the rules. He doesn’t intend to either.
TheDRIVER has given the cops their fair chance. He believes only the deadliest evil can put an end to evil. Zigzagging through fast-moving traffic, he performs never seen before stunts to get hold of crime lords. He disrupts illegal races, punishing dangerous drivers, before handing them over to the authorities.

The Creator of TheDRIVER - Chris Hung.
TheDRIVER is unlike any fast car film you have ever watched. A heady concoction of vigilante justice, speed, and mystery—all packed together in a gripping storyline. No wonder big studios have called it too edgy. We know edgy is good because audiences are ready for a bold new racing inspired story.
The story, crafted for mature audiences, may contain scenes of sexual nature and violence. We wish to bring TheDRIVER to life in the most authentic way without compromising our artistic vision. First, as a comic book series to showcase our stories and the development of our universe. Ultimately, as an animated series!
