A number of international production houses are also setting up production facilities and operations in Singapore, such as Southern Star and Lucasfilm.

Several full-length 3D feature films are being produced by local animation studios, including the soon-to-be-released Zodiac, the Race Begins. This movie, produced by Cubix with the support of Media Development Authority (MDA) of Singapore, is also expected to be released in Asian markets, including China.
