Vanessa Coffey

"Vanessa was so great to work with. She was very specific to our individual needs and it made the whole process much more free as we knew the boundaries within which to play and create the scene. It was a really great experience."

Hannah van der Westhuysen

"Vanessa was fantastic to work with. She helped me and the cast openly discuss all the intimate scenes we were filming and relate the actions back to the characters and script. She ensured that every performer always felt safe, both in rehearsal and on set. Her presence took away a lot of stress for everyone involved."

Kate Cheeseman, Director

"Working with Vanessa was my first experience of working with an intimacy coordinator, and what a wonderful learning experience it was! Through pre-production and production, Vanessa worked closely with the director, myself and the actors to understand the scene in question and develop a specific choreography that ensured everyone felt safe and comfortable."

Bjorn Hanson, Producer

"Vanessa is a brilliant presence on any set and makes what can be an awkward intimate moment seem as relaxed, calm and simple as possible. A great ability to build confidence of cast and crew and excellent before and aftercare."

Adam Pursey, Production Coordinator

"I feel very lucky to have worked with Vanessa, who not only makes you feel at ease and comfortable, but truly understands the vulnerability an actor goes through when trying to capture these intimate and/or abusive moments. A professional to the highest degree."

Anna Russell-Martin, Actor
