Steph's Intimacy Coordination Level 3 Fundraiser

Hello Everyone!

I am thrilled to share with all of you that I have been admitted into the Fall 2022 Level 3 Cohort for specialization in INTIMACY COORDINATION with IDC (Intimacy Directors and Coordinators)!

~What is Intimacy Coordination?~

Intimacy Coordination is a person on a film/tv set who acts as a liaison between the actors and the production team when it comes to scenes regarding physical intimacy, levels of undress, violent depictions of non-consent, and more. The intimacy coordinator's job is to help navigate, choreograph, and craft these scenes. It is also their job to collaborate and coordinate with the other departments to ensure everyone is on the same page and safe.

I have been training as an intimacy director and coordinator since the beginning of 2020. I have completed Levels 1 and 2 and am excited to take this next step in my training. By the end of November, I will begin the final step of certification (Level 4 Mentorship) with my certification pending on IDC’s website (Intimacy Directors and Coordinators ).

While this is extremely exciting, it does come at a cost, and I am asking for any help if you are willing and able to give it!

The layout of costs is as follows:

Total Tuition Costs $5,000

(due 8/8) I have already put down a 25% deposit, but it drained a lot of my class savings

3 Round Trip Flights for in-person training in NYC from Des Moines:

roughly $300-$450 per flight= $1050-$1350 total

(first trip in August- another weekend in October and then again in November)

Housing:

4 nights in NYC per weekend (12 nights total)

$800-1100 per weekend ($2400-$3,300 total)

Food

$350 per weekend (Total $1,050)

Transportation in City

$50 per weekend (Total $150. It will Vary, but I hope to stay as close to the training studio as possible.)

If you cannot donate, please share. I wouldn’t be here without the support of my incredible community and family. I am surrounded by the best people and am very thankful.

All my love,

Stephanie Schneider
