Explode was shot in seven days. Since it was shot using only available light, no day was more than 10 hours long, and five of the days were under eight hours. There are 24 speaking parts in the film. Most of the actors shot all their work in four hours or less, with the exception of
Noel Olken (all seven days)
Circus-Szalewski (worked on three days) and
Joe Estevez, who shot all his scenes in only one, ten hour day.
