  1. I could have sworn that someone on this forum had put up directions on how to make your own front box with a detailed design and measurements. I was thinking about making my own. Does anyone know where those directions can be found? Thank you very much!
  2. OK, so usually 1" Camera-Gaff tape is used for camera related things, reels, film speed, etc while 1" Paper Tape is used for actors marks. Do any cameramen use 1" gaff for marks or is this a no-no ? I would just figure that the gaff tape holds up better than the paper? Thank you all for your answers!
  3. Hi everyone I am a new member and I am just starting out in the industry (in California) and I would be much obliged if some questions could be answered. I have done some research as far as Camera-Assisting goes on these forums and reading some books but have yet to answer a couple of questions: As an AC I have been told that 1" "camera" tape is what one needs to have in a variety of colors. NOW, is "camera tape" actually 'cloth gaff tape' and is this what AC's usually use - or is this or do they use "paper tape" ? Also is there a defined color chart of what AC's carry with them? And what is the use for each color? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
