Intimacy Coordination Workshop

Telling the Story Safely: Introduction to Intimacy Coordination for Film and Televison

The introductory workshop offers a shared space for actors, directors and producers to understand the role of intimacy coordination in storytelling. Through practical tools and open discussion, we will unpack what intimacy is, what it communicates on screen, and how to safely navigate scenes involving physical or emotional vulnerability. Participants will gain a clear understanding of consent, boundaries, and choreography practices, while learning how to collaborate with an intimacy coordinator to support both creative vision and performer well-being.
