A young man or woman are trying to break into the movie biz, circa 1983. Why 1983 you ask?
Because that was the beginning of the VHS explosion that changed everyting but mostly the porn biz.
Out in San Fernando Valley, once porn studios could film on magnetic tape, they could crank out adult features in two weeks to a month and had dozens going at once. The industry went into overdrive and they needed people badly. People who would fuck on camera.
So a young hopeful out in LA, hitting hard times could be tempted to give it a try. Or maybe even an older person, who had their 15 minutes of fame and then never hit again. Maitland Ward for instance. Moms, dads, students, teachers, nurses?
I think this would be a great idea for any writer who lives out that way and whose knowledge of the area and it's history could make a really compelling period story. Add in the drug fueled decadence of the time period just before the AIDS epidemic became world wide news and changed it all.
