Jonathan Endo took a break from film before Milton got him into acting in anime YouTube sketches. Months later, Milton would bring Jon on board for The Followers and is the only other producer that's been with Milton since the start.
Milton actually shot episode 2 "If YouTube was a Superhero" , episode 3 "If Facebook was a Superhero" and episode 11 "How to defeat a Hater", before realizing there needed to be a stronger pilot to set the story. Pilot episode features Hater.
