Standardization & Unionization are becoming central to how the industry approaches safety and intimacy work on set. SAG-AFTRAâs influence is helping establish clearer protections and more consistent expectations across productions.â
â
As this continues, intimacy coordination is moving toward long term recognition as a structured part of the production process đżâ

Supporting an intimate scene with less than 24 hours to prepare is rough!â
â
Early on, last minute calls from production were common even when the scene still needed careful assessment and planning. What isnât seen is the critical work that still has to happen before anyone steps on set.â

â¨May Skill Building: Regulation and Co-Regulationâ
Wednesday, May 13th 12-1:30pm ETâ
Teachers: Claire Warden and Marcus Watsonâ
â
Our May Skill Building is all about what it actually means to stay regulated in the room, especially when the work is emotionally charged, layered, or unpredictable (aka⌠most of the time).â
â
Claire Warden and Marcus Watson will walk us through practical tools for nervous system regulation and co-regulation, and how these skills show up in real-life rehearsal rooms, on set, and in moments of conflict or rupture. Weâll explore how your own regulation impacts performers, directors, and the room as a whole and how to support others without over-functioning or burning out.â
â
â¨This oneâs about building sustainability, trust, and steadiness for yourself and everyone youâre collaborating with.â

What happens on set can carry more weight than people realize.â
â
In emotionally intense scenes, boundaries can blur. Actors always have ownership over their bodies and the right to give, refuse, or withdraw consent at any time. Intimacy professionals help protect that clarity so the work stays safe and supported.â

What some call ârestrictiveâ is often what creates clarity, consent, and trust in vulnerable scenes. For many professionals, this role is becoming a key part of how safe and supportive sets are built. đŹâ
