Prop Making
Make the objects performers use and stories depend upon.
The role
Props may need to look old, futuristic, valuable, damaged or entirely invented.
Makers combine research, sculpting, fabrication, painting, graphics, CAD, 3D printing, safe materials and repeatable construction.
Core skills
- Research and prop breakdowns
- Templates, moulding and fabrication
- Painting, ageing and finishing
- Hero props, duplicates and safe hand props
Suggested practical workshop
Design and fabricate a durable story prop from a production brief.
This is a proposed workshop idea. Dates, availability and participation arrangements will be announced when confirmed.
