FILMBASE SESSIONS

A Discussion with......

Dressing Props Chargehand
Nick Akass


Wednesday 20th May 2026

1:15-1:45pm (UK time) via Zoom



Our next Filmbase session is with Dressing Props Chargehand Nick Akass.

Nick’s credits date back 16 years and include Star Wars Episode IX, 1917 and Avengers: Doomsday. 

We’ll be asking him about Prop Dressing for different budget bands, what the job involves on a daily basis and how the department works, including how crewing up is done in Props.

This session is also for crew interested in moving departments - Nick started his career in the Art Department and he will be talking about his experience of moving between Art Dept and Props.

Nick’s work has included low-budget and micro-budget productions - we’ll be finding out what low-budget means as crew on the ground and what you gain from it.

He is also Chair of the Bectu Props Committee and does much behind-the-scenes work to support rates and other issues affecting the department.

Sign up for the session below. Don't forget to submit a question if there's anything specific you'd like Nick to answer.

The webinar is FREE for Filmbase members and £10 for non-members. If you'd like to become a Filmbase member, click here
