A Room With a View

Film shoots are ubiquitous in Los Angeles. They're big news in any other city and attract press attention. Here in Lotus Land, many people consider them a pain because of the traffic and parking problems they sometimes create.

Some neighborhoods are particularly popular for shoots and that may make the neighbors particuarly militant. Dead-end streets are often chosen because of the reduced noise, but that can exacerbate congestion and increase tensions. We rarely have shoots on my street because parking spaces are almost non-existent due to the narrowness. The next street over, however, is quite popular. I tend to avoid driving down that one.

Porn shoots can create additional problems when the neighbors see hardcore sexual activity from their yards or windows. While many porn shoots are permited, the performers are supposed to be obscured from neighborly eyes but that doesn't always happen. Several houses in Studio City are particularly popular for porn shoots notwithstanding that drives the neighbors crazy.

I would be hard pressed to complain if I looked out my window and saw this bloke posing in all his glory. No attempt is being made to hide his magnificent ass, which clearly can be seen from many windows in the background.
