Racers have one hour to create the videos using Adobe's Creative Suite 4 on a computer powered by the Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition, Intel's latest chip.

Mike Kanfer, business development director at Adobe, says in a blog post on the site: "Before I became a VFX supervisor, I was a compositor and editor, so I have a special place in my heart for artists who do great work with our tools, especially the ones who can work at lightning pace and make it all look so easy!
"I was excited to be asked by Intel to come on board for a few days as a Digital Drag Race judge, and had a great time critiquing the work and meeting the artists afterwards."
