Hey so I’m a film major and I’m about to be working on my first film as a director this semester and I was wondering if yall had any ideas on how I can make the sets feel safe for my actresses? I’ve heard horror stories of people getting hurt

Straight up just talk to them, and let them know they can come to you with concerns or issues. Knowing from the start that you want to make the space safe for them is crucial to building trust (which will also benefit the quality of your production). Plus they will know what they need given the circumstances of the shoot far better than people online.

Get a good producer. Have a lot of safety redundancies & be someone your talent & employees can feel safe talking to if something is going wrong before it goes *really* wrong.
