WIKIPEDIA DEFINITION

The Assistant Property person is responsible for the usual preparation of props and regular "on-set" duties, along with the day to day operation of the property department. The Assistant Property person has specific tasks that can change from project to project.

Prop (defined) ANY item handled or touched by the actor on camera or on stage. Props are items that are used by a performer onscreen; they might be featured prominently or simply included to flesh out the way a character looks.

Examples: wallets, keys, cigarettes, cups, pens, pencils, papers, cigars, pipes, firearms, knives, food, wristwatches, sunglasses... you get the idea. Note: The costume or wardrobe department may wish to handle eyeglasses, watches, rings, etc.
