A new set of guidelines have been published for directors shooting sex scenes during the pandemic.
In response, Directors UK, an organisation representing 7,500 screen directors, released an updated set of guidelines for “directing nudity and simulated sex” on Thursday (20 August).
This has brought with it some questions regarding scenes of intimacy and how they can be filmed while still complying with social distancing guidelines.
However, Directors UK acknowledges that not all partners will be comfortable with this and that blurring the boundaries between the personal and professional may inhibit the performers.
