Prop money is used constantly in film, television and music video. Productions rely on it for the simple reason that working with actual money is expensive and difficult to secure. Visual accuracy counts on camera: detail that holds up under a macro lens.

Prop currency works equally well in every shot. Wide shots permit lower detail, while detailed shots demand accurate colour and texture. Banded stacks matters when cash is the focus. Different denominations provide flexibility for international settings.
