Props Masters
Expert props masters sourcing from Ouarzazate's Atlas Studios and Marrakech's artisan souks for your Moroccan production.
A props master sources, creates, and manages all hand-held objects and set properties used during a production. In Morocco, this role draws on a centuries-old tradition of artisan craftsmanship, with access to Atlas Studios' extensive prop inventories in Ouarzazate, traditional souk markets, and a workforce skilled in metalwork, woodcarving, and textile arts. 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 Moroccan props masters who have deep relationships with Atlas Studios' prop departments, artisan communities in Marrakech and Fez, and specialty vendors across the country. Our network includes professionals experienced with epic desert productions, period Middle Eastern and North African settings, and the major international productions that have made Morocco one of the world's top filming destinations.
