about the rig
We were asked to help the DP/Dir set up a foxhole that we can dive through an any position in the forest that fits best for the vision they had in mind. It required us to work closely with art department and camera because one key issue was to be centered within the foxhole and be able to adjust and maintain that position regardless the choice of lens or bodymountoptions thrown our way and to perform that task off the main road and as fast as possible.

ModX Rolling Soft Toplight
by:
Brendan Riel
We built this mobile toplight softbox using 6" ModX truss to serve four different sets inside a tight studio space with limited overhead clearance. The goal was to keep costs down and avoid building duplicate overhead rigs or ground units for each set. So, we designed a rolling, double-layered softbox that could easily move from set to set—and double as an in-frame ceiling piece when needed.
The structure measured 14’x14’ OD and held two 12x12 frames: one with 1/2 grid and one with bleached muslin. The bleached muz was rigged with a pulley system, allowing us to raise or drop the rag when we needed to bring it into the scene as a ceiling element. We punched LiteTile through both rags for soft, consistent coverage.
For mobility, we mounted the whole rig on C&C Studio Services tri-casters.
