The pressure on prop makers
What is it like to work behind the scenes in film and TV? We meet the people providing everything from typewriters to imitation weapons on the sets of big budget productions.

They’re all film props - objects that help bring stories to life on screen. Behind the scenes, they support a whole industry of specialist expertise.
We speak to prop masters about the pressures on budgets and safety, following the death of Halyna Hutchins, who was killed on set by a prop gun.
