Props Masters
Expert props masters drawing on Vienna's imperial collections and Salzburg's artisan workshops for your Austrian production.
A props master sources, creates, and manages all hand-held objects and set properties used during a production. In Austria, this role benefits from unparalleled access to imperial-era antiques, traditional craftsmanship, and a rich cultural heritage spanning centuries. Props masters work from the script breakdown to identify every required prop, then acquire or fabricate each item while tracking continuity across scenes.
We connect you with Austrian props masters who have deep relationships with prop houses in Vienna and Salzburg, as well as antique dealers specializing in Habsburg-era pieces and Alpine crafts. Our network includes professionals experienced with period European productions, contemporary dramas, and international co-productions filmed across Austria's palaces, Alpine landscapes, and historic city centres.
