Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Supporting Characters (2012)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Director Daniel Schechter said his goal from the start was to make a really good film for under $50,000, and that the finished film came in incredibly close to that number.
- The soundtrack was composed by Schechter's friend, the indie director and musician Jordan Galland, as a trade: Schechter cut the trailer for Galland's own film Alter Egos in exchange.
- Schechter and co-writer and star Tarik Lowe built the semi-autobiographical film out of incidents from their own personal lives, with Schechter's experience as an editor shaping the script's editing-room scenes.
