An Intimacy Coordinator exists to support cast and crew in filming intimate scenes.

I help a scene be as sexy or as unsexy as the story asks.

    • To strike balance between no surprises and spontaneity.

    • To assist with a deeply human form of negotiation and in upholding boundaries of individuals, cast, and crew.

    • To verbalize the awkward.

    • To intuitively adjust to different creative and personal needs.

    • To offer dynamic intimate choreography.

  • Intimate Scene Blocking and Choreography, Understanding of Power Dynamics and BDSM, Queerness and the Spectrum of Sexuality

  • As a filmmaker the past decade, I've cared deeply about consent-based relationships on set. My desires as an IC are to help create scenes as sexy or as unsexy as requested, with the utmost respect for all involved. 

    Safer sets can allow for riskier art.

    Intimacy for the screen can be told in ways that can be beautiful and/or challenging. Intimacy coordination is crucial for respecting real concerns and making space for fantasy.

    It doesn't matter our physical levels of ability, how old we get, how "experienced” or "inexperienced" we are - intimacy coordination can help clarify boundaries, ease fears, giggle through awkwardness, choreograph, and support artists to deliver their best work.
