stunt coordination

Dangerous scene planning

Stunt coordination is the planning, choreography, and supervision of dangerous or physically demanding action sequences in film, television, and live performance.

The stunt coordinator designs fight scenes, car chases, falls, and explosions to look spectacular while keeping performers safe.

This role requires expertise in rigging, camera angles, and timing, as well as knowledge of what the human body can withstand.

The stunt coordination on that action film took months of preparation.
