Husband and wife team, Ryan and Hyojung spent two years working on the short animated film full-time in South Korea, not including another six months previous to the main production period spent working after hours on the previs in Australia. Hyojung painted the majority of the backgrounds, Stanley Darmawan completed the majority of the character animation, and Ryan did the majority of the other tasks. The backgrounds were all digitally painted in Photoshop, and the characters, while rendered using 3D software, were given a cel-shaded look.
The music was composed and orchestrated by the Australian composer, Nicole Brady. It was performed by The Orchestra of Vienna and Moravian Philharmonic, with solos performed by Martin Penicka (cello) and Nicole Brady (piano).
