What do IC's bring to set while working, and how is it beneficial? Do Makeup and Wardrobe not have everything they need? The answer is a little complicated, as discussed by Rachel, Katherine and Annie in this week's episode.

Do productions that don't use Intimacy Coordinators ever wish they had one in the middle of production? How do productions with ICs differ from ones without them, for the crew and actors?

In today's episode, Rachel, Katherine, and Annie discuss times when they were glad they were on set, and times when their input was needed, but not requested. They also talk about the moments that make them proud to be Intimacy Coordinators!

We've talked about Intimacy Coordinators and Intimacy Directors, but where exactly do these jobs differ? Are they done by the same person? Does the experience for the actors and crew on set change?

Today Rachel, Katherine, and Annie discuss when a scene requires Intimacy Direction, when it requires Intimacy Coordination, and if the process is different for each.

In previous episodes, we've referenced "closed sets" or "closing the set", but what does it mean, and how does it work? Does the Intimacy Coordinator actually decide who stays and who leaves?

In this episode, Katherine, Rachel, and Annie talk about how closing a set is handled, and what happens when it is.
