How sex scenes are adapting to a changing Hollywood
Imagine being an actor on a film or television set about to shoot your first make-believe sex scene.
Who are you going to turn to for help and advice, or even protection?
This is the responsibility being taken on by intimacy coordinators, who have been found on ever more film sets in the two years since the beginning of the #MeToo movement.
The HBO television network, for example, insists that any scene involving nudity or intimacy must involve an intimacy director on set.
Tonia Sina Campanella works as an intimacy coordinator and explains how their role has evolved over the past couple of years.
