Props Masters
Expert props masters with access to Budapest's studio prop inventories and Andrassy Avenue antique dealers for your Hungarian production.
A props master sources, creates, and manages all hand-held objects and set properties used during a production. In Hungary, this role benefits from Budapest's well-established international production infrastructure, extensive studio facilities at Korda and Origo, and a deep pool of antique resources spanning Habsburg, Art Nouveau, and Soviet-era items. 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 Hungarian props masters who have deep relationships with Budapest's prop houses, studio inventories, and antique dealers along Andrassy Avenue and in the Castle District. Our network includes professionals experienced with period European productions, contemporary Hungarian dramas, and the major international productions attracted by Hungary's generous 30% tax rebate for film productions.
