A free industry panel from the Women Over The World International Film Festival, looking at how screen productions can protect the people who make them while still delivering powerful, daring work.
Four UK practitioners discuss the roles that shape care on set today, including access coordination, artist wellbeing, mental health and safety, and intimacy coordination. The conversation covers how integrated care supports producers, directors, heads of department, performers and crew, and argues that clear boundaries, proactive accessibility and psychological safety strengthen storytelling rather than limit it.
Speakers include Jess Mabel Jones, an access coordinator, Lou Platt, a dramatherapist and founder of The Artist Wellbeing Company, Matt Longley, co-founder of 6 ft From The Spotlight, and Ita O’Brien, a pioneering intimacy coordinator who chairs the panel.
