Synopsis

Race Across New Zealand was the first of three telefilms produced for the Rocket Power animated series. It premiered in the United States on Nickelodeon on February 16, 2002, during the 2002 Winter Olympics. The story follows the Rocket family and their friends as they travel to New Zealand to compete in "The Junior Waikikamukau Games." Otto Rocket faces off against the son of an athlete who once defeated his father, Ray Rocket, in a race in New Zealand, an event allegedly marred by cheating. Meanwhile, Otto's sister, Reggie, tries to gain Ray's attention, as he remains focused solely on Otto. The telefilm features several sports, including zorbing, mountain biking, tubing, dirtboarding, windsurfing, and snowboarding.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
