Trivia
- Nine to Five is jaxbeetle's first machinima series, and the second from Spite Box collectively. It was initially envisioned as a comic before being reimagined as a machinima series.
- The series was subtly referenced in Crazy, Cupid, Love! before it was announced, with Nicole recounting to Sarah a story of her and June landing in a location called Wakefield, the last name of one of Nine to Five's main characters Conroy Wakefield.
- This series will be filmed within the Halo: The Master Chief Collection game engine, specifically a heavily modded Halo 3 as well as Halo: Reach.
