The entire short film was shot on the streets of Portland, Oregon during a one-day shoot during the 2015 Portland Film Festival.
More than 2,700 Portland residents showed up to participate in the filming as walk-on, Do-It-Yourself Zombies in full make-up and Fleeing Townsfolk. The director, was particularly excited by this, and in spite of having several professionally prepared Zombies on the set, selected a group of 8 local amateur actors, with make up by Ravenous Studios, to play the part of Principal Zombies in the film.
An attempt at the Guiness World Record for most extras in a short film.
