"Now I don’t have to put in that huge, draconian effort to keep that soft source off the wall, I can think about more about refinements, like maybe putting a little bit more light into the set. Something else it gives one is the peace of mind and the opportunity to try things that you previously wouldn’t have attempted."
Thomas Ackerman, ASC on Lighttools® Soft Egg Crates®
Lighttools® has created and continues to develop Soft Egg Crates® to assist image makers in soft light control. The innovative design and light construction of our Soft Egg Crates® makes them popular on a wide variety of demanding projects: controlling light spill with a minimum of fuss and providing a greater degree of creative control.
This unprecedented level of light control is achieved by using a patented process of interlocking cloth strips to form light blocking cells. Introduced to the marketplace just over a decade ago, Lighttools® Soft Egg Crates® have become the industry standard for the control and shaping of soft light.
Lighttools® Soft Egg Crates® are manufactured in a variety of cell sizes for all standard light banks and butterfly/overhead frames.
