Props

Props are a vital part of video production. It gives a sense of realism to the film. Everyone has heard of props but what does it mean? Well the term prop refers to any movable item which is visible on a film. There are many different types of props, these include:


· Dressing props – things that are used to dress the sets (furniture drapes, flooring etc.)
· Hand props – items that are used or held by the actors
· Hero props – objects central to the action in a scene
· Stunt props – replica items made of soft materials
· Mechanical props – move or illuminate


Other props also include:

· Weapons – knife, gun, saw
· Greenery - plants, trees, flowers
