In this episode we are fortunate enough to have 3 professional prop makers with us to discuss the world of setting up a prop making business and working on film and tv.

Our guests

• Christine Harold & David Flynn from The Props Factory: We are two kids who grew up in the 80’S watching too many monster films. We worked hard and got through art college where we met lots of other talented people who we are still lucky enough to work with today. Having been lucky enough to have learned from generations of prop makers and sculptors over our many years in the industry, we now have a wealth of knowledge that we love to share with other makers.
