Stage and prop marking on a movie set can be helpful in ensuring smooth production and efficiency. When it comes time to set the stage, gaffer's tape is the industry standard due to its matte finish and clean removal capabilities.
Gaffers tape like BT-279 Bron AV Cord Tape™ and BT-698 have a matte backing that minimizes glare, making it great for marking stage positions, actor placements, and blocking unwanted glare.
Gaffer's tape like BT-260 comes in over 15 colors, including a fluorescent assortment, making it easier to color-code, label, or mark equipment on set.
BT-260 is conformable, durable and removes cleanly without damaging surfaces, making it a favorite amongst gaffers, technicians, and film crews.
Whether it's marking the edges of props, securing cables, or creating temporary labels, gaffer's tape is an invaluable tool for the arts and entertainment industry.
