| Outline | In recent years, the global performing arts industry has been actively adopting Intimacy Direction/Coordination in order to ensure that the production of intimate scenes meet an international standard, and everyone involved can work in a safe, professional, and inclusive environment. However, the local industry of Hong Kong still lacks systematic support in this area. Many practitioners have reported feeling uncomfortable or even experiencing harassment while rehearsing and performing intimate scenes. Night Guys Production aims to fill this gap with a project focused on three key areas: 1)Awareness: We will use social media to share information and raise public awareness about the importance of safety in producing intimate scenes; 2)Education: We will offer talks and practical workshops, along with tutorial videos, to facilitate the production of intimate scenes with both safety and artistic quality; 3)Resources: We will develop a set of practical and localized guidelines for safely producing intimacy scenes, and design modesty garments that are currently demanded from the local market. As a result, building an essential toolkit for bringing Intimacy Direction/Coordination to Hong Kong. |
