Intimacy Coordinator Haley Muraleedharan Featured on Podcast

By News

Intimacy Coordinator Haley Muraleedharan has been featured on podcast Film By Numbers, discussing intimate scenes in cinema and the importance of Intimacy Coordinators.

The role of intimacy coordinators has become increasingly important in recent years, particularly in light of the #MeToo movement and increased awareness of issues related to consent and respect in the workplace. Intimate scenes can be particularly sensitive and vulnerable moments for actors, and having a trained professional on set can help to prevent misunderstandings, misconduct, and trauma.

This episode looks back at sex in cinema, from the Hays code to erotic thrillers to sex comedies and all the way through to where we are now.
