This short film is based off of the feature film screenplay "The Serial Number" written by Chris Mauldin & Roy Allen.
The short originally started out being shot in 2006 as a feature length film (The Serial Number). During production as the budget kept getting eaten up, the producers made the executive decision to cut the shoot short and creatively make what they could in post production with the footage they had. The goal was to edit a story in order to pitch the feature length movie script. Their have been various cuts/edits of Wells Lane, with the 5 minute short being the final directors release.
The Detective Office scenes were actually filmed at Marvel/Lions Gate Animation studio.
Wells Lane is the actual name of the street the house in the film is located on.
