TRP Worldwide 8x8’ 50° Fabric Egg Crate
Controlling soft light with precision.
This 8x8’ fabric egg crate is one of our go-to tools when we need to keep big, soft sources clean and directional. Used regularly on commercial and branded shoots across Melbourne and beyond, it’s a simple but powerful modifier that gives us extra control on location — especially when space or spill is a concern.
Designed to attach to large 8x8 diffusion frames (like Ultrabounce, Grid Cloth, or Magic Cloth), this 50-degree egg crate helps reduce unwanted wrap and spill, keeping your subject lit while maintaining contrast and shape. Whether we’re keying a subject outdoors or managing soft top-lighting indoors, this grid keeps the light where it needs to be — and out of where it doesn’t.
Why It Matters on Set
• Directional Control on Large Setups: Great for softboxes and overheads when we want big light without it bleeding everywhere.
• Cleaner Edges = Cleaner Shots: Keeps light off the floor, background, or lens, which means less post cleanup and more control in-camera.
• Fast Setup with Mounting Ties: Easy to rig onto our 8x8 butterfly frames — we often run this with our Kupo Master Stands and T-bars.
• Compact & Travel-Ready: Packs down neatly into its included carry case and fits in the gear section of our Melbourne production van.
We reach for this when we’re working on:
• Corporate video production with larger interview setups or dramatic lighting schemes.
• High-end branded content where light quality and direction need to feel polished but natural.
• Documentary shoots in uncontrolled environments where shaping the light quickly is essential.
