Interesting facts

Conventioneers is a 2005 American romantic comedy film directed by Mora Stephens, who co-wrote the screenplay with Joel Viertel. It stars Matthew Mabe, Woodwyn Koons, and Alek Friedman.

Production

Principal photography took place in New York City in 2004. In a 2007 interview, Mora Stephens explained her vision for the film:

I developed the characters and many of the scenes with the actors in rehearsal, so going into it, working in these real environments, the actors always knew who the characters were. There was never a moment where they didn't know what was going on, but I wanted the film to feel as real as possible and also give the actors as much freedom as possible, so the style grew out of that.
