At Shiphouse, we heartily believe that the creation of an inspired and rigorously thorough vision is the critical first step of every great picture’s production. Bring us on early and watch how smoothly things run when a cohesive, articulated and exiting vision trickles down into each department.

With over ten years of experience, we know that being prepared, being organized, as well as being mentally and provisionally able to deftly overcome the random challenges that invariably crop up during every production, are the keys to keeping it on track and looking professional on the screen. Well-seasoned, we instantly envision environments, we know where to get virtually anything your production needs, and we work swiftly and smoothly with our crew to manifest visions of all scopes.

If you’re looking for a location that you can control - control the lighting, the sound, the weather – then a set-build is what you need, and with over a decade of experience designing and building everything from highly stylized apartments to alien spaceships, whatever it is you have in mind, yes, we can build it.

Whether you want a ‘less is more’ or a ‘more is more’ styling, something in between, or outside, we have you covered. From hyper clean, focused product shoots, to overflowing, kaleidoscopic scenes of décor explosion, we’ve a ton of experience styling all kinds of environments, from big to small.

It’s a simple matter of due diligence in research to create an accurate period design, but if you’re looking for something truly fresh, you’re going to need a designer who lives and breathes a seething, unquenchable passion, not only for clothing, but for creating art. Whichever you need, you’ve come to the right place.

If prop-making were only about finding and modifying pieces and understanding how to work with different materials, there isn’t much with which we haven’t had hands on experience, but prop-making is more elusive; it is the skill of solving problems. Every production requires a unique creation, and every unique creation an original approach to piecing it together. Whatever it is, we have the outside-the-box thinking needed to turn your ideas into objects.
