Props for Film & TV
We work with buyers, set designers, producers, and production assistants, and having gained valuable insights into the industry’s demands, we’ve adjusted our processes and stocks accordingly.
We know the type of stock that is needed (like the latest and greatest phones), and we try to keep assets ready for ‘last-minute’ orders to save the day.
Whilst all of the hardware we own is for practical use, we will BUY specific stock (with different shapes and styles) for key clients and rent to you for a fraction of purchase price When quoting, our sales team will provide exact model numbers, images and dimensions for prop use.
Our screen range extends from 20-inch monitors to 136-inch display walls, and our assets have appeared in countless dramas for major production companies.
If technicians are required on set, to setup, modify, or move equipment, then we can provide experienced hands with a range of adapters, stands, and tools to help you get the shot you need.
Aside from providing tech for use as props, we can provide powerful hardware to support production offices and post-production teams.
-Personal devices – tablets, laptops, and a leading range of apple hardware.
-General Office Equipment including fast photocopiers, printers and phones.
-Leading range of Workstations and graphics cards to support video editing, rendering, and special effects.
-A range of other hardware – if you need tech to push a production project forward – call Hire Intelligence.
We know that the film and TV industry moves rapidly, and we want to ensure that the rental process is hassle-free.
To reserve assets we have designed ‘low paperwork’ processes to help our clients who are on the move, or working long hours.
Once a rental is agreed and equipment reserved, our multiple locations, logistics capabilities and technical teams help ensure delivery,installation, and operation all go smoothly too.
We believe we have…
- the right stocks for props and post-production computing power,
- the right service levels and smooth systems,
- the right team and experience to deliver on our promises.
Thus allowing you to focus on what matters most….creating exceptional content.

Case Studies
Film Production Equipment & Props - The Zero Theorem
Film Production Equipment & Props - The Zero Theorem
When Terry Gilliam’s production company wanted equipment as the centre piece for a futuristic set on the movie The Zero Theorem, they turned to Hire Intelligence. A large number of LED screens were required which would be built into a cylindrical set design for one of the central scenes in the film. The screens needed to be very modern, with the facility to accept multiple inputs.
Hire Intelligence provided a rental of 20 of the latest 40inch Samsung LED screens along with another 18 screens of a various smaller sizes. These were then shipped to Bucharest where they were combined and built into a structure which brought Gilliam’s dreams to life. 50 iPads, also delivered to the Romanian capital, completed the hire.
