THEATRE, TV & FILM
Initially providing theatre production design and production design for television, Scruffy Dog Creative Group are well versed in delivering design and conceptualisation solutions for theatre, TV, and film. In subsequent years, they have widened their specialism into the fields of design and conceptualisation for theme parks, waterparks, zoos, aquariums, as well as individual attractions. Still providing industry-leading services in this field, Scruffy Dog Creative Group have built up a plethora of experience in creating props and sets pertaining to production design for television and theatre.

Scruffy Dog Creative Group were delighted to be awarded the contract to design a large-scale prop for a new space age TV programme premiering on Sky.

Detail is key when it comes to production design for television and our creative productions team worked tirelessly to create the impressive, highly detailed spacecraft used in the filming of the show.

We’re incredibly proud of the end result and can’t wait to see our design feature properly when the programme airs.

We have also provided production design for television to Framestore in regards to a new television advert for Expedia. The advert itself depicted a woman’s journey on a mundane commute, before falling into her phone and holidaying across the world. Scruffy Dog Creative Group contributed to its creation through initial pre-visualisation services that made use of Unreal Engine. The advert first aired in early 2022.

Another of the instances in which we’ve provided production design for television was in the creation of several film sets for use in various online YouTube features.

As a part of this project, our workshop team created a range of fantastic sets within which they crafted highly accurate replications of an American diner, an abandoned house and a television studio amongst others.

It’s the little details that count when it comes to production design for television and our creative design team have a great eye for the fine points that make up a set. As well as the bare-bones of flooring, walls, and other structural elements, our workshop team constructed bespoke signage, shelving units, stairwells, news desks and more to breathe life into the set. They also carefully selected off-the-shelf props and re-purposed them where necessary to create the interesting sets you see here.

Scruffy Dog Creative Group have experience in delivering a whole host of services within theatre production design. One of these jobs involved the creation of a set for Warwick Davies Theatre Company.

Our concept for this envisioned a household interior featuring multiple three-dimensional props & sets including blue glass windows, bookcase, functioning doors, and a bespoke timber staircase. In order to add that extra touch of realism, we also provided scenic painting services for the entirety of the set. Our theatre production design is highly versatile and looks to seamlessly complement any brief.

Our team manufactured the props within our Birmingham workshop before undertaking their installation on-site.
