“We’ve all seen lots of steamy sex scenes. Just to be clear, I’m talking about regular old movies, rather than porn. While some said sex scenes are subtle, artsy, and shrouded in shadows, others are frantic and hilariously awkward, and still others straddle the line (pun intended) between erotic and graphic, or even unexpectedly shocking. And then there are plain old make out or kissing scenes. But regardless of the type of intimacy being portrayed on-screen, or its intended flavor, there is always a behind-the-scenes reality that actors must contend with. While some actors feel very comfortable with one another, some do not. While one actor may feel great about a given scene, another may take issue with certain parts. One actor may have problems with the way their intimate scene partner is interpreting things. And so on, and so forth. Kinda like in real life, y’know? And, as most of us hopefully know by now, no one likes to have to say, “me too.” Enter the intimacy coach, AKA the intimacy coordinator. It’s not a job with a very long history (just yet). But the role can be understood as addressing the following question: how do you ensure the continual consent of all parties involved in a work environment where consent (or lack thereof) isn't necessarily scripted?” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support
