Prop Design and Prop Making

Whether you need a high-impact, oversized version of your product for a trade show or props for a movie, commercial or TV show, the expert designers at MadeFirst can help. As a full-service creative design and fabrication company, we have assembled an impressive prop design portfolio that includes memorable pieces for conventions, premieres and festivals.

 

Our Portfolio

We’ve used our experience, technology and exacting attention to detail to make even the most ambitious requests a reality for our clients. A few examples of custom props our team has built over the years are a life-sized pirate ship, a 3.5-foot-tall bottle of Tabasco sauce and a gigantic roll of Bounty paper towels. 

While we’ve created some playful props, we always take our projects seriously, providing outstanding customer service and quality craftsmanship to ensure satisfaction and repeat business. We partner with our clients to ensure they are on board at each stage of the process, even sharing photos and a live video feed of our work for complete transparency.  

 

Our Process

Prop making requires a combination of artistry and technical abilities. At MadeFirst, every prop design partnership begins with a concept you provide, which could be as simple as a few lines sketched on a page. Then, we’ll use our state-of-the-art software to make a model of the finished piece. This rendering provides a realistic idea of what the finished product will look like, so you have a chance to make changes. Once you have approved the model, we’ll start building.  

Our fabricators have access to a range of materials, including wood, metal, foam and plastic. We have invested in CNC machines and robotic arms, enabling us to craft large-scale props that are sure to make a splash. After we’ve finished building your prop, we’ll carefully pack and ship it to your location, then coordinate with you to assemble and install it on site for your event.

 

If You Can Dream It, We Can Build It

Our creativity and client-first philosophy drive us to develop cost-effective solutions for every challenge. In addition to prop design and creation, the MadeFirst team offers experiential marketing, large-format prints and services for high-profile events like awards shows.
