Props & Products

Props is the design record for objects in the film: what a thing looks like, how big it is, and a reference sheet you can hand to whoever has to build, buy or dress it. It is the exact twin of Wardrobe, for objects instead of costume.

It is one of three tabs that deal with things, and the difference between them trips everyone up exactly once, so the first page below is about that and only that.

Three tabs, three departments, three questions. Read this before using any of them.
