On Set as an Intimacy Coordinator - With Marci Liroff and Chantal Cousineau

What an absolute joy it was talking to these two amazing women, Marci Liroff and Chantal Cousineau, all about their work as intimacy coordinators. We talk about the training involved to become an intimacy coordinator and the power and necessity of precise language and transparency from the audition process to the day of filming. We discuss the protections under the new SAG-AFTRA contract, the larger scope of these protections in legislation, other industries and beyond, what they do on set to support performers and the whole crew and so much more! They have anecdotes galore and incredibly powerful stories about the industry and how it has evolved. You are going thoroughly love this episode, please enjoy!

Marci has been involved with filmmakers as a casting director, producer, and
acting coach for the last 40+ years. She's cast so many films including E.T, Blade Runner and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, to name a few. She is one of the premier intimacy coordinators today who trained, along with Chantal, with Amanda Blumenthal.
