Losing Her Sex Scene Virginity

(Produced by Laura Herberg) Director's Choice! Laura Herberg won Director's Choice in Verite + 1, our first-ever audio competition. Laura's story is about her friend Rachel Parsons, an aspiring actress who landed the lead role in a low-budget, independent film. The only drawback was that it required a sex scene in which she would have to be topless, something she wasn't sure she wanted to do.  The role was too good to turn down, even though she worried it might jeapardize her relationship with her boyfriend. The story is told almost completely as verite.  Rachel has been working on a narrated version of this story off and on for years.  She thought the Verite + 1 competition would allow her to experiment with a new approach; maybe shaking loose the producer's block and indecision she's been wrestling with.  We think it worked.
