None of the crew were over the age of 20 when the film was originally written.
The opening title credits sequence were shot with the assistance of the assistant director's friend. He let the director of photography Cameron Smith stick the camera out the window of his helicopter as he flew all over north Texas. He only asked for a chicken sandwich as payment.
The auditions were held in a coffee shop of the hometown of the production crew. An ad on CraigsList was posted two days prior to the auditions and over 70 people came in to read.
Director of photography Cameron Smith got his driver's license the day before shooting.
Because the production crew were in college at the time of shooting, the wrapping of principal photography took several months longer than expected. In fact, the twist ending of the film was shot two weeks prior to the cast/crew pre-screening.
