This film uses some footage that was scrapped from a Christmas episode from the canceled series “Goffik Gurlz”, which was not shown in the previous film.
Unlike its predecessor “The Infamous Fallout of Tara and Raven”, this film includes additional scenes that were shot around a month before this film came out, to further create a fun story and to fill in the gaps of the plot. This is because there was not enough pre-existing footage to create a full story.
Despite the heavy language and themes in the scrapped “Goffik Gurlz” series and the previous film “The Infamous Fallout of Tara and Raven”, this film does not include such themes nor swear words.
This is the first Amethyst Studios film that includes originally-created ambience sound.
