Hi! Film producer here!
So when it comes to sex scenes, everything begins with actors consent of course and you have Sex Scene Coordinators who orchestrate a lot of that paperwork and so forth. However, when it comes down to actually shooting a sex scene there’s a lot that is considered for the actual image itself which involves actors, costume design, set design, and the sex scene coordinators.
More often than not, if we can cover an actor (by blankets, shot trickery with clever placed items/furniture, or simply clothing that fits the scene with action that implies sex) then we will do that first. This keeps actors clothed and comfortable, letting them focus on their characters in the scene and the story itself that’s being told.
Any nudity that is necessary in a shot can be broken down into ‘levels’.
Level 1- Fully clothed as mentioned before, including revealing clothes/underwear. No explicit nudity implied/required.
Level 2 – Actors only remove the clothing that is necessary to imply explicit nudity in the shot. E.G. Its a waist up shot, actors are clothed from the waist down in whatever they find comfortable.
Level 3 – Nude coloured underwear. Usually small briefs for a man, and a thong with a small bra or even pasties for a woman. Useful for shots that a far away or for obscured actors behind patterned glass or light fabrics.
Level 4 – Only the bits get covered. You have a little pull-string nude-coloured bag that a man puts his cock n balls in, and a sticky, nude ‘patch’ that covers the womans vagina or a even a very hairy merkin that covers the whole vagina. Depends on what’s necessary.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL AN ACTOR BE FULLY NUDE ON SET WITHOUT A LOT OF EXPLICIT KNOWLEDGE, CONSENT, AND PAPERWORK.
Actors will only be nude for the shots where it’s 1000% necessary with clothes being taken off/put on between shot changes and lots of cover for between takes. This is also normally only seen by a bare bones crew as most actors ask for a ‘closed set’ when performing these scenes.
