Faking It with Ariel and Morgan

Two intimacy coordinators reveal what actually happens behind the scenes of film and TV's most iconic intimate moments.


Full description:

We're Ariel and Morgan, two professional intimacy coordinators who choreograph sex scenes for film and TV. We pull back the curtain on how intimacy is really made—from the awkward logistics to the craft that makes it look effortless.


On Faking It, we break down:

  • Heated Rivalry: the back arch, the bed share, and why good gay sex wins over hockey
  • The hottest no-contact scene in cinema history (Secretary)
  • Why Brokeback Mountain's tent scene needed more lube
  • The invisible Buffy sex scene that required flawless pantomime
  • Barbarella's orgasm machine
  • PEN15's honest depiction of teenage arousal


What you'll get:
Behind-the-scenes secrets, absurd Hollywood stories, real talk about love and sex, and a front-row seat to the art of pretending.
