Matthews Open End 12x18" Artificial Silk Scrim, White

What sets the Open End 12x18" Artificial Silk Scrim apart is its meticulous design for professional lighting control on set or in the studio. Crafted with precision, the scrim features a robust spring steel frame, complete with a 3/8" mounting pin and support. This allows for convenient hanging from a C Stand handle when the scrim is not actively in use, ensuring easy access and efficient workflow management.

The frame's innovative construction includes two slotted upright arms at the open ends. These slots are engineered to securely retain the piano wire that is intricately woven through the white artificial silk fabric. This design detail is crucial as it forms the fourth side of the frame while avoiding the creation of unwanted shadows, thus maintaining the integrity of your lighting setup.

Open End Scrims are indispensable tools for cinematographers and photographers alike, offering the ability to subtly control or manipulate natural or artificial light. Whether you're looking to gently soften the intensity of light or reduce it in specific areas, this scrim performs without leaving a discernible edge, allowing for seamless integration into your scene.

The scrim is encased in a color-coded binding that not only adds durability but also serves as a quick identifier for the fabric type, streamlining the selection process during fast-paced shoots. Additionally, the frame's black powder-coated finish is purposefully chosen to minimize reflections, ensuring that it does not distract or interfere with the lighting effects you're aiming to achieve.

The Open End 12x18" Artificial Silk Scrim, White, is a testament to Matthews' commitment to quality and functionality in lighting equipment. It is an essential component for any professional aiming to master light manipulation for dynamic and visually stunning results.
