Production
The digital series was shot during the Enhanced community quarantine.[11] Kathryn and Daniel said that it is hard for them to shoot the series project because they need to follow the safety protocols to prevent COVID-19. Kathniel also clarified that the digital series was not connected with their 2018 film "The Hows of Us".[12]
Iba siya sa nakasanayan namin. Naka-lock in lahat 'yung set-up tapos limited lang talaga 'yung mga pumapasok, at lahat fina-follow 'yung safety protocols. Nakakapanibago pero lahat naman nagko-comply.
English Translation
It was different from what we were used to. All the set-ups are locked in and then the casts and crews are really limited, and all the safety protocols are followed. Innovative but everyone complies.
Kakaiba 'yung experience na nandito kami sa village, parang nasa bubble lang din kami. Walang pwedeng lumabas o pumasok. Kami kami lang ang nandito, astig din siya.
English Translation
It was a strange experience that we were here in the village as if we were just in a bubble. No one can go in or out. We are the only ones here, it is also cool.
