Props Masters
Expert props masters sourcing from Zagreb's prop houses and Dalmatian antique dealers for your Croatian production.
A props master sources, creates, and manages all hand-held objects and set properties used during a production. In Croatia, this role draws on a rich heritage of Venetian, Habsburg, and Mediterranean cultural influences, with access to authentic period items across the Adriatic coastline and inland cities. 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 Croatian props masters who know the prop houses in Zagreb, antique dealers along the Dalmatian coast, and specialty craftspeople throughout the country. Our network includes professionals experienced with period medieval and Renaissance productions—such as those filmed in Dubrovnik's walled city—contemporary European dramas, and international shoots taking advantage of Croatia's cash rebate programme.
