A special offer while you wait:
The crucial moment that determines if actors see you as resource or obstacle
Picture this: You're about to tell your lead actor they need to wear a barrier.
Your palms are sweating. You've got sample barrier products in one hand and impending social doom in the other. You open your mouth and... they’re staring at you like you just suggested interpretive dance during the fight choreography.
Here's the thing—top intimacy coordinators on HBO sets and Broadway stages have cracked the code on this exact moment. They've got word-for-word scripts that turn awkward kit introductions into smooth, professional interactions that actually build trust.
Same methods the pros use to navigate resistance and normalize barrier use... but with a twist that lets you sound confident even when you're absolutely freaking out inside.
This won't take long. About 6 minutes and 47 seconds to read, actually. Then you'll have the exact phrases at your fingertips.
Look, we both know the problem. You became an intimacy professional because you care about consent and safety. Not because you wanted to become a traveling salesperson for neoprene barriers while actors exchange uncomfortable glances.
Without the right language, you'll fumble through explanations while the director checks their watch. Without knowing when NOT to offer items, you'll create the exact pressure you're trying to avoid. Without a 30-second introduction that lands, you'll spend your entire career feeling like you're imposing rather than supporting.
Even if you're naturally confident. Even if you've taken every ID/IC course available. Even if you've got the best kit money can buy.
Because we don’t teach the actual words and scripts anywhere else.
This simple collection of battle-tested scripts lets you introduce your kit, offer items without weirdness, and handle resistance like you've been doing this for years.
My name's Marie Percy.
I'm an Intimacy Director and co-founder at IDC. I lead a team of professionals who've worked everywhere from HBO productions to Broadway shows. For the past several years, we've been in the trenches figuring out what actually works when you're holding a modesty garment and everyone's looking at you.
If you're anything like me, you've been on an actor call knowing you SHOULD prep them for the modesty garment and barrier they’ll be wearing, but having absolutely no clue how to make it sound normal.Â
We watch aspiring Intimacy Professionals try to wing it in our trainings all the time. They stumble through some explanation about "options" and "comfort" while internally panicking. The problem is—when YOU feel awkward about offering options, everyone else feels awkward too. It becomes this weird tension cloud that hangs over the entire process.
I've used refined versions of these exact scripts on major productions where there's zero room for amateur-hour fumbling. They work because they're not theory. They're the phrases that actually came out of my mouth when things went smoothly.
This makes a difference because the way you present your kit and the options in the first 30 seconds determines whether actors see you as a resource or a bureaucratic obstacle. Your words either create psychological safety or drain it from the room.
- Works even if you're newer to this field and still building confidence.Â
- Works even if you've had people refuse items before.Â
- Works even if you're working in theatre where the culture around intimacy work is completely different from film.
Using these templates, you can walk onto any set or into any rehearsal room and sound like you've coordinated hundreds of intimate scenes, even if you're still building your reps.
There's something you should know about how this was created.
I didn't sit in an office theorizing about what MIGHT work. Every single script in here came from actual productions where real money and real reputations were on the line. I collected what worked, ditched what flopped, and refined the phrasing until it became almost automatic.
You can absolutely do what I did. Go through dozens of awkward interactions, read the resistance in actors' body language, and slowly piece together what language actually builds trust versus what creates pressure.
Everyone on our team has had the uncomfortable conversations, made the mistakes, and figured out through painful trial-and-error which phrases land and which ones make people's shoulders tense up.
Or you can grab these done-for-you templates that condense years of on-set refinement into phrases you can use THIS WEEK. There's no fluff about "the importance of intimacy work" or theoretical frameworks. Just the actual words that work.
You can use this even if you've never coordinated a professional production. Even if you're still deciding whether to pursue this career. Even if you just want to stop feeling like a nervous wreck every time you unzip your kit bag.
Here are 5 things inside that'll make your next introduction exponentially smoother:
Here's the deal: I created this because I was exhausted from watching talented intimacy professionals sabotage themselves with clunky language. I've cut out all the theory and credential-flexing so you can read this in about 15 minutes and use it on your very next gig.
Don't let the size fool you. It's short on purpose—hundreds of hours of on-set experience distilled into just the phrases that actually matter. It truly is one simple shortcut you can use to sound confident and professional even when you're internally panicking.
Don't do what I did and spend months collecting awkward moments like they're embarrassing Pokémon cards.
You probably don't want to fumble through twenty different productions trying to reverse-engineer the right words. I've made the mistakes so you don't have to. The weird silence after a bad introduction, the director's impatient sigh, the actor who never quite trusts you because your first impression was nervous rambling.
You can get the scripts done-for-you and bundled in a PDF that lives on your phone. It's like having an experienced coordinator whispering in your ear before every interaction.
Right now, you can grab the entireÂ
"Intimacy Kit in Action Templates" for just $7.
Click below to get instant access.
Unsure it's worth a measly seven bucks?
Consider what's inside:
- The producer introduction that prevents them from seeing your kit as a budget-draining liability (this alone has saved gigs)
- The resistance-handling framework that maintains boundaries without creating conflict
- Scripts for three different types of actors: the enthusiastic, the skeptical, and the "I'm a professional, I don't need this" type
- The timing guide for WHEN to introduce items so you're not interrupting flow or creating awkward pauses
Why is it only $7? Because the biggest barrier in this field is confidence. I'd rather a hundred early-career coordinators sound professional for the price of a sandwich than have five people pay premium prices while everyone else continues to fumble.
If you want to walk into your next production sounding like you've been doing this for years... if you want actors to actually TRUST your kit instead of viewing it as an uncomfortable obligation... if you want to finally stop the sweaty-palm stammering...
Seriously, this costs less than two decent coffees. Skip your overpriced latte tomorrow and get scripts that'll serve your entire career.

**WARNING:**
You will make mistakes in this field. Every coordinator does. But you don't need to make the SAME mistakes I did: standing there in awkward silence, watching actors' faces close off because you couldn't find the right words, or worse, creating the exact pressure and discomfort you became a coordinator to prevent.
I've collected all those mistakes into what NOT to say. Now you can skip straight to what actually works.
Click below to get the Intimacy Kit in Action Templates for $7 and stop fumbling through introductions like an amateur.
Your next kit introduction is either going to be awkward... or it's going to be professional and smooth.
Seven bucks determines which one.
