Overview

This is a Matthews 8x8' Solid Black Overhead Fabric. Also known as "Rags" these are the materials that are tied to the Butterfly/Overhead frame. For many years, only basic materials were used, such as scrims to reduce light, silk to diffuse light and solid to eliminate light. More recently many new materials have been added to allow many degrees of diffusion (Grid Cloths, Black Silks, etc.) plus many new reflective materials are now available to make large reflectors for both sunlight and artificial light such as Matthflectors, Grifflectors and Lames.

Questions & Answers

Common questions about grip and our rental terms. Still have a question? Email us below.

Is a grip truck available?

Yes. Our 1-Ton Grip Van package is in the catalog and includes C-stands, frames, expendables, and the common grip hardware. For larger productions, we can scale up through partners — contact us with your shoot size.

Are expendables included?

Basic expendables (gaff tape, clothespins, clamps, sandbags) are included with grip packages. Large expendable orders for multi-day shoots can be quoted separately.

Do you rent rigging hardware?

Yes. Speed rail, wall plates, pipe clamps, and standard menace hardware are available. For specialty rigging (car mounts, jib arms), ask us first — we may partner with a rigging vendor depending on the scope.
