Services
What we do
We offer a complete creative & performance service – we design, create, procure, deliver, set, keep an eye on during events, disassemble, drive away… We are at your disposal for all of the above or just some of them – according to your wishes and needs.
To begin with, we can roughly place three services under the category We procure, although we offer help and suggestion for our clients’ needs …
Plan A
Prop rent
Druga perspektiva takes pride in its showroom containing over 5000 pieces of props available for rent! It’s a great benefit making our work easier. It’s highly probable we already have available something you need to rent 😊. Our clients are regularly thrilled with our showroom when strolling through that creative time machine – and you can view our online prop catalog on our (new) web page and see what we offer. We’ll summarize it in a sentence – from modern design furniture, modern interior design pieces, including glamorous or even ascetic pieces from various historic eras + lighting, carpets, decoration, small props
Plan B
Prop procurement
What we do not stock in our showroom, we can certainly find in our many business partners’ ranges. We will find it and rent it for you! If even our partners can’t help – we begin a wider search that includes ads, international web pages, various antiques fairs, or even looking for new partners so we can secure the prop our client requires.
Plan C
Making props
If plans A and B both fail, there’s always an option of – building. Our skillful workers, such as carpenters, locksmiths, plasterers, painters, matte painters, modelers, you don’t have to worry if what you’ve envisioned will turn out the right way. We can even build a space ship (to be honest, it’ll fly only once 😊) – if you have the right budget. Although we’ve previously shown that we really can create the impossible – we show that foremostly in set building.
P.S. We also have a 3D printer that makes lesser miracles happen in the nick of time 😊.
Designing graphic filming props
Do you know that crucial moment in photography, the one where you capture the best possible photo? Something similar exists in filming – a key message, person or thing that triggers the whole scene into action or turns the whole story upside down. Believe it or not, in 90% of the cases, this thing is… a piece of paper. In order for a piece of paper to tell a whole story, it needs a graphic prop designer. Luckily, we have one in Druga perspektiva! Not only for that one key thing, but for any passing details that will add an extra dimension to your story or event. Every piece of paper that appears on screen – product packaging, labels, books, tickets, magazines, documents, storefronts, signposts and anything else you can think of – can be created by our graphic prop designer.
Newspapers, magazines and articles are extremely important because they can paint a picture of the time where the storyline is set. Instead of filming an entire scene of very demanding production value, sometimes it’s more telling when you show a big newspaper headline. Small details like these will round up your story, and you can be sure they will be designed exclusively for the needs of your own, movie, how or event.
Delivery
Our delivery system is a bit more complex than people usually presume about delivery. In order to deliver set and props to the shoot, event, or a celebration party, we use our small fleet of Mercedes-Benz Sprinter delivery vans and years of experience in appropriate packing and transporting both fragile and non-fragile sets/props (so-called strategic van stacking 😊). Of course, after the shoot, event, or celebration party is wrapped up, we do the opposite – disassemble, pack, and take everything away…
We build or set up movie or TV sets (or events) in their entireties. We can create and build anything thought of and constructed, both interior and exterior. This is where our aforementioned skillful workers show their class in such a demanding project as set building. Carpenters, locksmiths, plasterers, painters, matte painters, modelers, but also electricians and technicians… Certain parts of a project can only be a backdrop, and those necessary for action will be set in a functional way. Everything is according to the provided blueprints and arrangement with the client.
So, we set up a set or event, or these ‘rohbau’ works were done by someone else… What follows next is our specialty – set decoration! Using our own or otherwise procured stage props (objects and furniture pieces pertaining to character, sign of times and space atmosphere), built set, necessary decorations… This is where our set dressers come to light; they arrive to the set first, closely work with the set designer, they set up the furniture and decorations chosen by the set designer, they prepare the entire set for shooting… Now, we’ve told you the entire story using the example of a set, but it’s clear to see the level of professionalism used for setting up the space for an event or some other business or celebratory need.
If you ask yourself why is the service that’s actually the basis of everything located at the end of the list – this is only because it’s not a necessary part of our service bundles. We pride ourselves in a great cooperation with set designers, event managers, creative people in marketing agencies who contact us with precise requirements for set design or a necessary prop. In case you don’t have a contact of such a person, and you have an event or a presentation to conduct – we can think of and design everything necessary. For example, in a TV series episode scene that can be street name board, house number, name door tags, ‘I love you’ paper note meant for the heroine; in case of an event, we can provide you with funny signposts or raffle tickets, event program, event-styled posters…
… or proof that we’re at your disposal in every way within our domain… We have a well-coordinated shooting team that’s usually made up from prop buyers and prop master for studio shooting; and if shooting is not done in a studio, we also have set dressers for exterior locations. However, that well-coordinated team working on movie, TV series and promotional videos sets is even quicker and more successful on setting up and arranging events, fairs, celebration parties and spaces used in other business purposes our clients hire us to do.
