Breaking the formula in attraction design without breaking your budget. http://www.jelcoprops.com JelcoProps delights in creating unique film and theater props, droids, repair robots, special FX, sound and voice-overs, sci-fi panels, dungeons, haunted houses..
. and let's not forget those all-important theme scenes and cue-lines with sets and simpler, less expensive animatronics that entertai
n your visitors while they wait! We specialize in creating those smaller, less sophisticated 'plug N' play" animatronics & sets with FX for sci-fi, horror, or period, with complete stories already assigned for your theme --> No extra storyboards or specialists needed! Just flip a switch and you're up and running! Our team is derived of artists, writers, actors, singers, voice over specialists, photographers, technicians, engineers and more. Beginning in our individual offices and garages, or as individual contractors for corporations such as Disney or Six Flags, we came together to form this incredibly diverse (and somewhat twisted) pool of talent known as JELCOPROPS. Collectively we have membership in the Writer's Guild of America, Directors Guild of American, Propmaster Guilds, the Stuntman's Association, NASCAR and SAG-AFTRA. And our meatloaf is to die for! Anyone who works for Jelco believes in the fun and joy of creation, the ease of humor and story-telling.. creations that touch you in some manner- funny, entertaining, melancholy, musically, exhilarating- something that remains with you long after your visit.. and makes you want to come back! We've learned that with collaboration we're so much more than the sum of our individual talents. We have full time, some are part time, but everyone is passionate about ALL the time they spend with us. Our team combines talents to give you a total package- no need to hire separate writers, designers and voice artists. We offer award winning set design plus 20 years' experience in event planning and management. Tell us your story and let us create the world around it well within your budget. "Custom" does not always mean "expensive"! Have iconic film props that need some special care? We're collectors too. Refurbishing is a specialty and we provide the extra care needed for those one-of-a-kind props and offer a few tricks to bring them back to life, displaying them in all their glory
Are your animatronic displays outdated, props malfunctioning? Most companies offer replacement with newer, more expensive units- which is a fine option if your budget allows. Keep in mind, however, that not everything has to be new!! The re-purposing of your existing props and sets will stretch or recoup your initial investment. Jelco can repair and re-purpose to your needs! You've encountered our work many times in theme parks, museums, haunts, renaissance fairs, film companies, theaters, TV commercials and more.
