Development

On December 22, 2023, it was reported that Searit Kahsay Huluf would write and direct a stop motion/computer-animated short film titled Self. In a February 2024 interview, Huluf said that the thought of how she could self sabotage had initiated the idea behind the short, mentioning that she enjoyed the word self and following her emotions. According to Huluf, she had "so many of these moments where I would set myself up for failure.

Huluf wanted to tell a story about "one's relationship with themselves and how they see themselves in the world", further explaining "that was part of it and the other part was talking about the immigrant experience too. We don't have it blatantly saying she's an immigrant in the film, mainly because there's not any dialogue in it, but when you look at her design she does have African markings.
