Intimacy in Film Ft. Intimacy Coordinator Ita O'Brien

Bad Behavior

We're diving into one of my all-time dream jobs: Intimacy Coordination in film, TV and stage. Niki and I adore shows that push boundaries in themes and ideas - but we are 100% against pushing anyone's healthy personal boundaries to get there!
I was ecstatic to speak with Ita O'Brien, the woman who pioneered intimacy coordination! Despite being a vital part of the film industry, it's still a relatively new field! Ita has worked on shows such as Sex Education and Normal People. We chat to Ita about the Intimacy on Set guidelines, setting boundaries, and how sometimes if you want something done, you just have to do it yourself.
