Christina Pitts Jazzar - Intimacy Coordination

Tits and Teeth Podcast

Christina Pitts Jazzar is a qualified intimacy coordinator, and on today’s pod, she will be our guide into this world as we begin to scratch the surface on all the useful qualities and necessary tools these professionals can bring into our work spaces.

Christina is a member of the collaborative team of Intimacy Choreographers/Coordinators and Vulnerability Consultants from DaCosta Talent along with Lisa Stevens and Anisa Tejpar. These consultants are brought into a space to aid in scenes of intimacy by designing a structured approach to physical story-telling of both sexual and non-sexual intimacy. They also create and implement riders where nudity or partial nudity exists, work with minors on sensitive or highly emotional material, be a safe bystander in the room if an actor requests it, and act as a liaison between departments regarding intimate scenes.

Christina is an extraordinary woman, dancer, actor, and choreographer who has recently added the title of intimacy coordinator to that list. Christina has worked on the set of such productions as Mrs. America (FX), Umbrella Academy - Season 2 (Netflix), The Good Witch - Season 4 (Hallmark), and The Shape of Water as a choreographer and associate choreographer. As an intimacy coordinator, Christina has just come off of the set of Re:Uniting by Laura Adkin starring Jesse L. Martin, and is excited and enthusiastic to continue doing more of this work.
