It’s been a busy few months in the workshop and one of our latest prop creations to feature so prominently in a film is a recreation of Stephen Hawking’s wheelchair. The film is ‘The Theory Of Everything’ and tells the story of the relationship between Jane and Stephen Hawking.
db Props had great fun creating several radio controlled animatronic tortoises for the BBC Film ‘Esio Trot’ to be shown on BBC One on New Years Day at 6:30pm. Along with the animatronic tortoises, we also had to create a huge quantity of ‘static’ tortoises as dressing and a ‘Tortoise Grabber’ operated by Dustin Hoffman.
