Props (short for properties) are physical things used on screen in film and television. Story props can be anything from handy items such as balls and books to pictures and pieces of clothing.
Props are crucial to the production of film and television since they can be crucial to move the story along, like the 'one ring' in The Lord of the Rings, and even if they are not essential for story purposes they are necessary to make the world seem real and lived in. For example, the potions class in Harry Potter would seem very unrealistic if it were simply an empty room with now cauldrons, bottles, boiling stands etc.
