Fashion Hollywood 40in. Double Riser C Stand – Black Light Stands

The term “Century Stand” goes back to the early days of motion picture production. Before the introduction of artificial lighting, the stages would revolve to allow for continuous overhead lighting from the sun. Large reflectors would be positioned to bounce back or kick the overhead light up onto the stage and illuminate the set and actors. These reflectors were made in many sizes, but it seems the most popular was the 100 inch or “Century” sized reflector.

The unique staggered leg design of a C Stand allows it to be nested  and placed extremely close to one another on a set. The top leg of the  stand is independently adjustable.
