trainee Prop Maker - feature - funfair films

september to october 2022

I started work on Mickey 17 in September 2022. I had a little background as a Prop maker for a week or so on Wonka and Half Bad. Working on Mickey 17 threw me in the deep end.

I was tasked with constructing a near endless supply of sci-fi lights to be fitted into the full scale space ship set on the main stage. Each of these lights consisted of over 60 parts including moulded plastic pieces and steel rods that had to be angle-grinded to length.

 

I had to learn quickly how to use these tools, and where to go when I ran out of certain components. It was essential that I stayed focused despite the repetitive nature of the task to ensure a consistent standard.
