"Trippin"' is a 1999 comedy film starring Deon Richmond, Maia Campbell, Donald Faison, and Guy Torry. The film also served as one of Anthony Anderson's earliest film roles. It was directed by David Raynr.

Filming and releases

The movie was filmed on location in California in the cities of Los Angeles and Long Beach in 1998. Narbonne High School in Harbor City was used for most of the film's school shots. Harbor City in Los Angeles was also a location used for filming as some of the film's scenes take place on the RMS Queen Mary. The title of the film, while it was in production, was "G's Trippin" that was later shortened to its current title before release.

The film was released during the start of the summer movie season of 1999. It was released in a limited number of theaters compared to the summer blockbusters released around the same time. The film did well enough to crack the top ten in gross receipts during its first few weeks of release. It was later released on VHS and DVD that same year. The film was re-released in 2005 as part of a DVD 4-pack named the "Playa Pack" that also contained the films Deliver Us from Eva, The Best Man, and How to Be a Player. The sole DVD was released with a different cover art featuring both Deon Richmond and Donald Faison.
