butterflies and overheads

Rosco butterfly panels are available to fit the standard butterfly and overhead frames used in motion picture and television production.

Butterflies are produced in all materials necessary to control light effects such as diffusion, reflection, light intensity and colour temperature. Fabrics, like molton black, grey and white, and textiles for digital compositing, like Chroma and Digicomp are also available.

All standard sizes are in stock:

4' x 4' (1,12 x 1,12 m)
6' x 6' (1,74 x 1,74 m)
8' x 8' (2,35 x 2,35 m)
12' x 12' (3,55 x 3,55 m)
20' x 20' (5,90 x 5,90 m)

Any custom size and finishing can also be made available.

All materials are supplied edge-finished with ties and grommets. Filter grip panels are sewn on to a fabric edge tape, which gives strength and flexibility, up to any size and in different colours to facilitate identification of some of the materials used in butterfly production: Green for all Single Net (black and white), Red for all Double Net (black and white) and Yellow for Silk (natural and artificial). The rest of the filter grip panels have the most appropriate colours to go unnoticed. All butterfly panels are delivered in water resistant bags.
