Film Intimacy Professionals
Kristen Elizabeth is a film intimacy professional who teaches intimacy coordination through the lens of why it became necessary. Her work addresses the gaps left by traditional training programs that emphasize protocol without examining the harm that made those protocols essential. She trains intimacy coordinators internationally and consults with productions on safety, power dynamics, and choreography.
Her approach centers on translating lived experience into structure: helping filmmakers understand how power dynamics, silence, and unchecked authority shape intimate scenes long before choreography begins. By grounding training in the realities that necessitated intimacy coordination, Kristen equips professionals not just to follow rules, but to recognize risk before harm occurs.
Her memoir Shevolved accompanies this work as a professional case study — documenting the cost of an industry that learned too late that good intentions are not a safety plan.
Our training teaches filmmakers how to break down on-screen intimacy - whether love scenes, simulated sex, kissing, nudity, or emotionally charged physical contact - into clear, intentional beats that serve the story. Every movement and camera angle is crafted with purpose, so intimacy isn’t left to improvisation but filmed with the same precision, artistry, and professionalism as any other element of production. Filming intimacy requires a depth of knowledge that most filmmakers are never taught in film school. Our mission is to bring this level of expertise to every set, at every budget.
