| Summary |
Sabour Bradley dives head first into the secret world of everyday Australians. From sex tapes to Aussies in Syria and so much more, Head First is a series about everyday Australians living extraordinary lives in hidden worlds.In an age when celebrity is more likely to come from infamy than talent, what does an ordinary person have to do to become famous? Sabour decides to find out by following a young fame wannabe from Brisbane, Skye Harper, in her struggle up the celebrity ladder. He also hooks up with comeback queen Tania Zaetta as she attempts to rebuild her shattered career in Australia.When Skye starts experiencing failure at auditions around town she asks Sabour if he will be her manager and he says 'yes'. Not wanting to muck around, he takes her to a fateful meeting with celebrity agent Max Markson who says they need to create a 'breakthrough media moment' for Skye and urges them to head straight to the fame capital of the world - LA.After missing her flight and nearly jeopardising the trip, Skye has a meeting with entertainment manager Gina Rodriguez (who represents reality stars like the Octomum) and the fun begins. Gina offers Skye a chance to create a 'media moment' with one of her clients, Jeff Miranda (formerly Snooki's boyfriend from Jersey Shore) but her favoured method is a leaked sex tape.For Gina, it's a straightforward business proposition she's used many times before, but for Skye and Sabour it's a shocking development that neither of them expected.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Head First was produced by Mushroom Pictures, Silver Suit Media and Tin Roof Pictures. Produced and developed by and in association with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
