CHEMISTRY COACH
What is chemistry coaching?
Chemistry coaching is an on-set support role created by Dionne Reid to address the human and relational dynamics of film and television production. Her Chemistry coaching service focuses on how people connect, communicate, and collaborate, particularly under pressure, time constraints, and high creative demand.
This role was born during Dionne’sexperience working in TV and film where the need for intentional relational support on set became clear.
She has since supported productions across film and television, with her work featured on BBC, Film4, Netflix, Amazon, and on productions for Warner Bros. and A24.
Chemistry coaching can be integrated pre-shoot, during production, or at key moments where alignment, trust, and communication are essential.
