Remote Prop Set Design information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Prop Set Designer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Prop Set Designer, you need a solid background in design, spatial planning, and prop fabrication, typically supported by a degree in set design, theater arts, or a related field. Familiarity with digital design tools such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Adobe Creative Suite, as well as experience with virtual collaboration platforms, is essential. Creativity, strong communication, and excellent time management are standout soft skills for this role. These skills and qualities are important because they ensure effective and innovative remote set design that meets production needs and deadlines.

What is the difference between Remote Prop Set Design vs Remote Scenic Designer?

AspectRemote Prop Set DesignRemote Scenic Designer
CredentialsExperience in prop creation, design software skillsExperience in scenic design, CAD proficiency
Work EnvironmentCollaborates with production teams, on-set or virtualWorks on overall set layouts, often in a studio or virtual environment
Industry UsageFilm, TV, theater, event productionTheater, film, TV, stage productions

Remote Prop Set Designers focus on creating and sourcing props for productions, while Remote Scenic Designers develop the overall set layouts and backgrounds. Both roles require design skills and industry experience but differ in scope and specific responsibilities.

What is a Remote Prop Set Designer?

A Remote Prop Set Designer is a creative professional who designs, sources, and arranges props and set pieces for film, television, theater, or virtual productions, all while working from a remote location. They collaborate with directors, production designers, and other team members using digital tools and communication platforms. Their responsibilities include conceptualizing set elements, researching period-appropriate props, creating digital mockups, and sometimes coordinating shipping or virtual rendering of physical items. This role requires strong artistic skills, attention to detail, and the ability to adapt designs for remote workflows.

What are some common challenges faced by remote prop set designers, and how can they be overcome?

Remote prop set designers often encounter challenges such as coordinating with on-site teams, ensuring accurate measurements, and managing the logistics of sourcing or shipping props without direct access to the set. To overcome these hurdles, clear and frequent communication with directors, production designers, and local crew is essential. Utilizing digital tools for 3D modeling, video conferencing, and project management can help bridge the distance and enable effective collaboration. Proactive planning and flexibility are also key to adapting to any last-minute changes or unforeseen issues.

$40/hr

Temporary

Posted 13 days ago

Job description

Timeline: Hours will fluctuate throughout 2026, especially busy in April, May, September and October 
Reports to: Director of Creative Operations

About TeamCivX

TeamCivX is California's leader in election strategy and communications for public agencies.

  • We create and execute informational communication strategies for public agencies 
  • We help develop revenue measures for the ballot to meet the needs of our clients and the communities they serve
  • We run privately-funded political campaigns to win voter approval for taxes, bonds and other public funding, as well as affordable housing and other needed developments
  • We help elected officials and qualified candidates who reflect our values make their case to their constituents when running for election

We are a fully remote company, with partners and staff throughout California. Applicants must reside in California.

Overview
We are seeking detail-oriented Design Coordinators to support design projects in short, focused intervals. This role is not responsible for managing projects end-to-end; instead, you will step in during key stages to set up project files, review work for content and design accuracy, and provide actionable design feedback based on the creative brief and oversee edits/changes as directed.

You will collaborate closely with Designers and Client Services Managers (CSMs) to keep creative moving through the workflow. This role requires strong organization, excellent communication, a good design eye, and confidence in giving constructive feedback, not just moving files from point A to point B.

Key Responsibilities

Project Setup and Intake:
Review creative briefs, gather required assets, and set up organized project folders for designers.

Design and Content Feedback:
Review in-progress design files to ensure they reflect the brief and required specifications.
Provide clear design direction and feedback to designers. No layout or production work required.

Asset and File Accuracy Checks:
Proofread copy, check versioning, verify naming conventions, and ensure all required elements are included.

Tracking and Documentation:
Input projects into Airtable, update status fields, and ensure records stay accurate.
Notify the Client Services Manager when a deliverable is ready for next steps.

Important:
This role supports specific moments in the workflow. It does not own the full lifecycle or lead communication with clients.

Qualifications

2+ years in design coordination or creative operations preferred
Ability to evaluate design files and provide constructive, objective feedback
Familiarity with design terminology, file types (AI, INDD, PDF), and basic print/digital specs
Excellent organizational skills and ability to jump between multiple projects
Strong proofreading skills and meticulous attention to detail
Clear communicator, comfortable nudging designers or CSMs when something is missing or delayed

Preferred Tools

Airtable or similar project tracking platform
Google Drive (shared folder structures and versioning)
Adobe Acrobat (markup and commenting)
Zoom
Basic familiarity with Adobe design tools (Illustrator and InDesign), no hands-on design work required

Ideal Profile
You love structure, design details, and moving creative work forward. You are not designing, but you know how to provide thorough feedback and help designers hit the mark quickly.
