props ?

I don't know if it's a good idea, and if anybody uses any props at all, but here we can post offers of props exchange/ hire? E.g. i'm looking for a plastic human heart with vessels etc., and in return I can lend inflatable (huge! enormous!) deer head. or else, if you know where i can buy this kind of heart let me know.

Here is a choice of 3D hearts if that is to any help. Some more expensive then others.

Foyle's on Charing Cross Road sells all kinds of anatomical props. They aren't cheap though.

Buy one. Film it. Return it next day. :D

Cheers for the tip Mowgli mate... that could come in handy.

Thanks for advice, also I've found some cheap plastic heart (and eyeballs if anyone likes!) in Camden shop, it looks pretty plastic but I've treated it with some varnish and it's better. That's the shop with games and toys, just by the Camden market.

use some thing like maya or say 3ds max, then google free models, there are plenty of sites giving away 3d props.

i've got plenty of footage with digital hearts, but if you want a prop to 'act' with a person,it's better and easier to make it real :)

mmm ok paper mashy & some wire,
or for the unltimate in cheapness & lazyness take your real human actor into the shop that sells the hearts, & take the camara with you, pretend to be tourists & film with the prop in the shop :)
i wish you luck in your hearty project.

:D
I didn't have cojones to risk sales assistant's anger, I've just bought the heart (THAT is laziness, I know :))
