Set Building
We’ve been building sets since 1978, and after nearly 50 years in the industry, we’ve learned a thing or two about what makes a great production. Our experience is the foundation of our reputation—and the reason so many of our clients return to us time and again.
We’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of the best in the business: world-class production designers, art directors, FX specialists, and stunt teams—both here in Australia and from overseas. That collaboration keeps us sharp and ensures that every set we create is held to the highest standard.
For us, it’s simple: we go out of our way to make sure you get the very best. Because there’s a big difference between average and great—and greatness only comes when you work with the best.
That commitment has been the key to our success for almost half a century, and it’s the key to yours.
Prop Making
At ILLUSIONS, imagination is our raw material.
From fake rocks to fish, from trees to soap on a rope, our in-house props department can bring almost anything to life. With nearly five decades of experience, our team of artisans and makers are true industry legends, trusted time and again by production designers, art directors, FX and stunt teams.
Whether you need a single prototype or an entire forest, we combine creativity, craftsmanship, and problem-solving to deliver props that look extraordinary and perform flawlessly on set. When you work with us, you don’t just get props—you get the expertise and dedication that turn ideas into unforgettable moments on screen.
