This scene was created - like all kissing scenes in Heartstopper - with the expert help of intimacy co-ordinator
@DavidThackeray1
! I love that this scene has such a joyful, fun energy, in contrast to some of the more dramatic, angstier kisses in the show! ๐
Well well well ๐
But I will be honest with you all. These scenes would be nothing without the incredible
@AliceOseman
, the awesome director Euros, the insanely talented cast, production company and all crew.
Kit Connor says the shooting of โHeartstopperโs sex scenes took 7 hours:
โNow weโre doing the sex scenes. We shot a lot of footage for them. Not much actually ended up in the show. But we shot the sex scenes for about seven hours!โ

Actors who are late 20s above and would like to work with me on a short film, give me a shout. Always good to add to the list. ๐๐ผ๐ฌ

'Everyone feel completely supported, completely safe, and consenting, and all the necessary protocols have been followed. It was just fantastic for the cast to feel protected in that way.'

Just want to remind Theatre. If you have an intimate scene in your play that includes for example simulated sex or nudity - you need an Intimacy Director!
Itโs not the job of a movement director. I canโt believe Iโm having to say this in 2023. ๐ญ

Great question, itโs a bit of both really. Firstly you want to talk about consent and boundaries. Depending on the scene you usually block the scenes beat by beat, then discuss quality of the kiss, touch or intimate moment. Thereโs many more steps and variations of the process.
Working with intimacy coordinators on set and stage and how they support young actors through intimate scenes.

Good question. Short answer - Trained as an actor, worked as a director and then trained as an IC. 2017 was the first time on set as an IC. ๐๐ฌ Still juggling all 3 ๐๐ผ
(1) Here we go again. Clearly never gone through a good process of what an intimacy coordinator does.
The process allows consent & boundaries to exist so the artists can freely explore the scenes in so much more detail than ever before.

๐ฃ Sir Ian McKellen has questioned the need for intimacy directors in the theatre, saying that in his day such things would have โtaken care of themselvesโ
Looking for two characters for a low budget feature London. Please DM spotlights. More details if asked for tape.
1. Female identifying 25/30s (Reserved, intelligent)
2. Male identifying 40s (Wheeler dealer type, Eastend, has a heart under the tough skin.)
I haven't spoke about this yet. I understand where Sean is coming from and he is not alone with these thoughts.
However, if he gave me 5 minutes of his time to go through the process I think he would be surprised.
