ABSTRACT:
A frame for supporting a light modifying sheet such as a flag, scrim, cucoloris, and the like, comprises a main rod having hinges at opposite ends thereof. A pair of sheet supporting rods are connected to the hinges for rotation by about 270.degree., in a common plane, about the main rod. The sheet supporting rods can thus be rotated from a storage position parallel to the main rod to an erected position substantially parallel to each other and perpendicular to the main rod. A pair of spaced clips are connected to each sheet supporting rod for releasably clipping a light modifying sheet between the erected sheet support rods. A further hinge is connected at an intermediate location on the main rod and at a spaced location from the exact center of the main rod. A frame supporting rod is connected to the additional hinge and pivotable about an axis which lies in the plane of rotation of the sheet supporting rods, with respect to the main rod. The length of the frame supporting rod is chosen to match with one end of the main rod in a parallel storage position with respect to the main rod, and extend beyond an opposite end of the main rod in a parallel supporting position of the frame supporting rod. A clamp which can be used separately to connect two rod-like members together at any angular relationship, can be used in conjunction with the frame for connecting the frame supporting rod to the rod of a tripod or other rod or post-like member.
