The movie "Macho and the Nerd" was filmed in New Orleans. The movie does not voice the name of the city, state or area of action, i.e. it is a fictional city, which can be any city in the United States. Therefore, New Orleans was most likely chosen not for specific locations, but for financial reasons or the convenience of filming. Since usually Los Angeles is taken for such "roles", but it has already become quite expensive for filming.
