Nico Monterosso_CV_Prop Modeller_2024.pdf
I am a UK based Prop Modeller working in the Film and TV industry, as well as themed entertainment, furniture design and industrial design, with a history and in-depth knowledge of draughing and manufacturing/model making.
During my career so far, I have been fortunate to work for Sony, Marvel/Disney and Netflix as a Prop Modeller, but also on a wide variety of other clients' projects.
​
Most of my experience has been as a maker and a draughtsperson, creating technical drawings of props, furniture, set builds and consumer products.
I am used to being given a sketch and some basic information. From there I do pencil sketches and research to develop the idea further. I then create quick 3D models, CAD renders and concept art followed by detailed 3D models and technical drawings. As a prop modeller, I am used to my way around the workshop and have built and designed many hero props for film & TV.
​
I have an excellent understanding of manufacturing methods and construction techniques. This means my drawings are detailed and efficient. They allow parts to be broken down into CNC components, wood work or metal fabrication. Often on-site or in the workshop, I communicate directly with carpenters, fabricators and sculptors to solve any issues and most often find a solution then and there. Thanks for taking a look at my work.
