The original length of this short film was supposedly 6hrs 9mins. However, during some changes to the script and budget cuts, it was effectively written 3 times.

This movie is a follow-up to the director's first short, Burger Queen (~2004-2006).
The underwater scene involved a 10,000 gallon set designed specifically for the short. Thousands of dollars were spent transporting the water from Wa-Ki-Ki, Texas, home of the austere-narwhal.
