The 90-degree flag and frame design allows for versatile positioning over set walls. It also enables the creation of a light-controlling box using multiple units, providing optimal control over your lighting conditions.
Flags are typically smaller, up to 24"x36" in size, and are used to control light. Cutters are larger and can control light spill from various sources, protect the camera lens from flares, and prevent light from reaching certain areas on the set.
The extra layer of material, held in place with Velcro, allows the cutter to double in size when needed. This provides even greater light control and versatility in managing lighting conditions on set.
The color-coded webbing on all Matthews Scrims and Flags, including this cutter, is designed for durability and ease of use. It helps to identify the type of equipment quickly on a busy set.

This newly designed cutter boasts a 90-degree flag and frame, allowing for versatile positioning over set walls or the ability to create a light-controlling box using multiple units.
Unlike its predecessors, this innovative design features three square corners, enhancing its stability and offering improved light management. The 48"x48" frames have been streamlined with the removal of the mouse ears, resulting in a more squared-off, efficient design.
As a cutter, this tool is larger than standard flags, which are typically up to 24"x36" in size. Cutters are known for their ability to control light spill from various sources and protect the camera lens from flares. They are also used to prevent light from reaching certain areas on the set, providing you with optimal control over your lighting conditions.
This Matthews cutter is covered with a solid black textile material and comes with mounting pins attached for easy setup. For added versatility, it features an extra layer of material sewn to one edge, held in place with Velcro until needed. This allows the cutter to double in size when required, providing even greater light control.
To specify hinge placement, use the number with a (B) for Bottom Hinge and the number with a (T) for Top Hinge. All Matthews Scrims and Flags, including this 48x48" Cutter, are bordered with heavy-duty, color-coded webbing for durability and ease of use.
