Welcome to the MSH

With decades of industry experience. The Prop Collective, owned and run by Liv and Ash, is a prop-sourcing & set-dressing one-stop-online-shop that enables creatives from the artistic & commercial industries to find & access the items they need for their projects. We supply a selection of current day & period hand props & dressings, graphics to order, a growing selection of cleared artwork for hire, project stylings & styling consultations for fIlm, television, TV commercials & print media. With a valuable curated collection & countless hours invested in expanding our business the forthcoming eviction would threaten it’s viability going forward. Keeping our small support industries together will be hugely beneficial to facilitate the type of international jobs we hope to see at Docklands Studios. 

With 30 years experience starting in Camera Equipment Rentals and then working Freelance in Feature, Television TVCs and Broadcast.  I am fortunate enough to work with Incredible Local & International Creative Talent who expect World Class Service. By continually Researching And Improving Skills, Investing in Specialist Tech & Support Gear, I am alway looking for ways to keep that standard. I’ve played a role on many of the large scale productions shot in Melbourne. Through these projects & others, I am continually employing and training new people with our specialist skillset that you can only really learn “on the job”. The Hub gives us that space for all sectors of our industry, not just to store our fleet & equipment, but to expand our capabilities, continually innovate and create a the quality workforce that can match it with the Best.

 I have worked solely in the screen industry since I was a teenager, for over 30 years. In that time I have given my life to, and gained experience through countless local and international productions. I have owned and managed our own business for over 10 years, in that time building and designing specialised, industry focused vehicles and equipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and have been consistently focused on offering world class service and equipment to both local and international productions. To create a Victorian screen hub is essential for the growth of the industry in our state and to be able to provide international productions with not only world class equipment, but the service that is required to house the larger productions we are hoping to entice here with the building of a new sound stage at Docklands. A Victorian screen hub could also provide the local industry with a means to be able to provide a solid training environment and retain quality industry professionals, along with giving a centralised home to numerous businesses that will support the growth and innovation of the industry. Victoria would benefit existentially from providing a centralised professional support hub for productions looking at shooting in our state.
