About Us

In the past two decades we have worked on a vast range of projects.

Set Construction for Feature Films:

We have built the sets for numerous feature films, both local and international productions, with large-scale construction on location, coordination of construction teams simultaneously on different sites, transport and erection of pre-constructed sets in studios and sensitive environments

Location Set Construction :

In locations around Southern Africa we are able to use local labour, transport infrastructures and resources all coordinated and managed by skilled set construction teams

Studio Set Construction :

Sets in the studio, interiors like kitchens, bathrooms, office environments, apartments and industrial spaces, will sometimes require use of our store of standard flats, windows, doors, columns and ceilings. In studio we have also created waterscapes and desert-scapes, futuristic and period sets, and utilized large painted infinity curves to create panorama

Hardwearing Stage and Television Sets :

We have manufactured the sets for several stage productions. These sets must endure months of use through quick scene changes, suspension from fly-bars, trucking of cast safely over the performance area, and still provide the visual magic.

In a similar way, we have built television sets to handle years of service while being moved from storage to studio, assembled and taken apart repeatedly for the duration. These sets are robustly engineered to achieve maximum lifespan.

Painted Finishes and Backdrops :

Painted finishes such as aging, wood-graining, surface reproduction and texturing provide the realism on camera that makes a set believable

Backdrops and large painted cycloramas are produced in hard or soft edge

Special Effects Rigs :

When a portion of the set must move, rotate, slide, tilt etc, we have designed and manufactured the rigs to achieve these effects. Our experience in model making and swing sets is invaluable to the development of visual effects using rigs.

Some we have created include breakaway walls, pivoting elements and floating rigs

Sculpture :

We are able to execute sculpture in a wide variety of materials including foams and plastics, metals and fiberglass, plasters, clays and resins

Exhibition Stands :

Custom designed and manufactured exhibition stands, point-of-sale units and displays for trade fairs, product launches and special events

Shop Fitting :

When creating the interior of a store, set construction fills the gaps between joinery and fantasy. Some of the shop interiors we have done include concrete obelisks, waterfalls, mannequins carved from solid wood and spiral change rooms
.

International Facilitation :

We can facilitate projects directly with international clients and provide local solutions with global professionalism
