A complete kit for building a versatile lighting tool, the Westcott theC47 Book Light Kit includes the necessary Slim Jim Cine framework, connectors, and fabrics to create an adjustable V-shaped light modifier that is well-suited for interview and narrative lighting. Created in collaboration with Jem Schofield, founder of the popular filmmaking educational site, theC47, this kit is designed to produce a uniquely soft, flattering quality of light by both bouncing and diffusing the original source.
The integral component within a modular system, this 22" long Scrim Jim Cine Frame Tube from Westcott is used to construct customised panels in sizes ranging from 1 x 1' to 8 x 8'. When paired with optional fabrics, such as silks or diffusers, frame tubes form the rigid support from which fabrics are attached to create flags, diffusion panels, book lights, v-flats, or numerous other light controlling tools.
This tube is constructed from anodised aluminium alloy and heavy-duty hook-and-loop tape is riveted to two sides of the tube for attaching fabrics. A 3/8"-16 threaded mount is incorporated into the tube for mounting atop stands and additional dedicated self-locking connectors are used to combine several pieces of tube to create flat 2D frames or dynamic 3D light shaping tools.
Key Features:
- Tube measures 22" long and can be added to additional tubes through the use of dedicated, self-locking connectors.
- Anodised aluminium-alloy construction and self-locking connectors both help to maintain rigid, reliable frame configurations in various sizes up to 8 x 8'.
- Hook-and-loop tape is riveted onto two sides of the tube and is used for attaching a variety of fabric types to the frame system.
- A 3/8"-16 mount is incorporated into the tube's design for mounting to stands or other accessories.
