An intimacy coordinator is the professional responsible for planning, choreographing, and supervising intimate scenes in audiovisual productions. Their role is to ensure that filming takes place in a safe, respectful, and professional environment, protecting the well-being of performers and facilitating communication between actors, directors, and production teams.
Intimacy coordination is recommended whenever a production includes scenes involving nudity, intimate physical contact, or sensitive situations between characters. More and more production companies and platforms are incorporating this role to ensure best practices on set.
The intimacy coordinator works with performers in advance to define boundaries, consent, and the choreography of each scene. During filming, they collaborate with directors and production teams to ensure that intimate scenes are carried out clearly, respectfully, and in line with the project’s narrative needs.
Intimacy coordination in film and television brings safety, clarity, and professionalism to the filming of sensitive scenes. It also helps improve communication between different departments on set and contributes to creating a working environment based on respect and trust.
The role of the intimacy coordinator is increasingly used in films, television series, streaming platforms, TV, and advertising. Many international productions now include this practice as part of their professional protocols within the audiovisual industry.
