In film production, a Light Stand is primarily used to position light modifiers, such as silks, nets, or flags, in front of light sources. The stand is constructed of metal and consists of a collapsible base, two riser columns, and a baby pin on top. In addition, a C-stand includes a gobo head and a gobo arm, which provide the ability to articulate a light modifier without moving the stand itself. The legs of C stands are designed to be nested, so many stands can be placed around a light source.
The term light stand comes from the early history of lighting equipment where a popular sized sun reflector was 100 inches square or “century”. Today the term C-stand is a popular name for the grip stand made by Matthews studio equipment and has been copied by other manufacturers.
A secondary use of stands is to position smaller light fixtures. A typical use would be to offset a backlight from the stand column, so that the stand itself can be placed out of shot, while the backlight hovers somewhere above the top edge of frame.
