When exactly is an intimacy coordinator brought on in the production process? When should they be brought onto a project? During casting? The day before filming? The day of?
This week, Annie, Katherine, and Rachel discuss the answers to these questions and share experiences when they probably should have been brought onto set a little bit earlier than they actually were. As always, the conversation leads us back to the question "What is intimacy?"
In this episode, we discuss gender and body parts. In the entertainment industry, many of the legal departments still use very binary language - male or female being their only two options - in their definition of body parts when deciding what qualifies as nudity. Hence in the podcast when we reference “male chests” our meaning is male in the legal sense as used by entertainment law.
We at Romancing the Screen do not want to perpetuate the harmful myth that gender is binary or attributed to a singular factor. Gender is multifaceted. Biological sex, gender expression, and gender identity do not have to align in any way. People know who they are. Hear what they say. Believe them.
We will continue to try to make the entertainment industry a safer place for people of all genders by encouraging legal departments to be inclusive of all genders.
