The Glow 8x8 Butterfly Scrim Kit consists of a collapsible aluminum frame that can be easily assembled and fitted with interchangeable light modifying, light absorbing or opaque screens to transform any kind of strong light source from hard to soft, and raw to controlled. The sheer size of our 8x8 Butterfly Scrim helps to master the harsh nature of a powerful light source into a wide variety of diffused illumination solutions. Even the most severe, direct light is changed into a gentle and controllable source for still or video photographers.

The 8x8' frame is cleverly constructed of lightweight 1 inch square anodized hollow aluminum, with hinged joints to form a perfect stable square, reinforced to hold its shape with 8 locking points. The whole frame collapses down to a transportable and storage friendly 4' x 6" x 3", in its own zippered bag.

The Glow 8x8 Butterfly Scrim frame is supported best by C Stands, using the two included C Stand Adapter Brackets. When secured with weights or sandbags outdoors, it reduces the intensity of any sunlight and filters softly on subjects being filmed or photographed. In the studio, careful placement of the scrim to the subject or light to scrim surface, anyone can control properties of diffusion and reduction of strength to achieve flattering portraits and fashion images. And, even more exciting to the 'people photographer', is the ability to place the light anywhere along the large translucent surface and create some interesting and dramatic effects.
