The project started out as a short story released to social media, intended to later become a film of any duration. In 2015, it was made into a short film but was never released. Production for this short film began early 2017 and wrapped May 2018.
The movie theater is located in Garden Grove, California. It is also the focus of another BL film, The Gem of Garden Grove (2017)
In the movie theater wide-shots, there are various references. One poster is for Dreaded Rose (2017), one for Estrogen Estate (2018), one for the scrapped title of this film Justin in Time (featuring the cover art used in the original 2015 short story), and one for Commercials (2014), a BLJC Entertainment production.
The original script was 20 pages long. To meet project requirements, it had to be cut down to 9. It was finalized at 11.
Roughly 30% of the film's audio was cut and replaced with ADR. The ADR took 8 hours to record.
