Shot over the course of Summer, 2003. Everyone in the cast was 16-17 during filming; director Brian Rawson bought the camera with a bonus he'd received for working at FYE during the 2002 Christmas season. No one involved had studied film making before. They initially started shooting the film chronologically, as opposed to at each location; they didn't realize until late into production they could shoot every scene taking place at a given location before moving on to another location. As a result, it sometimes took days to film two or three scenes, as they'd shoot a scene in one location, drive to the next location, then drive to the next location.
