Custom Prop Printing
Camera-Ready action props & Faux Packaging is a highly specialised service that demands absolute precision, and when a prop is in focus, the details simply cannot be compromised. At Print Met Erika, we specialise in high-fidelity, small-batch prop printing designed exclusively for the rigorous demands of film, television, and commercial shoots operating in and around Cape Town. We understand that the art department carries the immense responsibility of building believable worlds, and the printed materials within those worlds must hold up to intense scrutiny. Whether your production requires a single, crucial hero prop for an insert shot or a short run of background items to fill out a bustling set, our advanced eco-solvent printing technology ensures vibrant, highly authentic, and glare-managed finishes. We produce graphics that look flawless under the heavy, artificial illumination of studio lighting as well as the harsh, unpredictable glare of the outdoor African sun.
What We Produce:
Faux Product & Beverage Labels: Custom soda can wraps, wine bottle labels, and cosmetic packaging.
Faux License Plates: Custom-printed, scale-accurate vehicle plates for any region or fictional setting.
Intricate Decals: Precision contour cutting ensures flawless edges for complex logo shapes, instrument panels, and specialized prop transfers.
Why Art Departments Choose Us:
We intimately understand that production demands ultimate flexibility. Scripts change, directors alter their vision on the day of the shoot, and the art department is expected to adapt instantly. Because we cater specifically to the creative industries, we absolutely do not force massive, traditional minimum order quantities upon our clients.
Do you need just one specific prop passport for your lead actor and exactly three identical soda wraps to allow for multiple takes? We are more than happy to accommodate.
