Lessons from working with real sex scenes.
Izzy has worked with intimate scenes for more than a decade. In this lesson she shares what makes an adult film ethical, how she talks with performers, and why consent is an ongoing conversation, not a one-time yes.
It’s for anyone who makes intimate scenes, or wants to, and wants to do it ethically and professionally.

Izabela Bartyzel
I founded RedCheeks Academy, where I teach a grounded, ethical approach to intimacy in storytelling, whether it’s adult film, mainstream media, or the blurry space in between.
I’ve worked with intimate scenes for more than a decade and prepared hundreds of performers for their shoots. Today I work on film sets as a producer and intimacy coordinator.
