This film features three generations of the Vo family - Gia Thien Vo is the grandfather of Trieu Vo, and Brandon and Brittney Vo are the children of Trieu Vo.

"One Step at a Time" features the onscreen debut for Brittney Vo (Little Girl), Trieu Vo (Dad on Phone), Brandon Vo (Little Boy), and Gia Thien Vo (Old Man). They are, respectively, director Joseph Tran's niece, cousin, nephew, and grandpa. Brittney has since expressed interest in appearing in more of the director's projects.

Inspired by the works of Cinematographers Shane Hurlbut and Phillip Bloom, this is Tran's first project shot entirely on a DSLR camera. Tran also chose to omit dialogue in the film out of his fondness for old silent movies.
