THEN—there I was pulling cable all over the back lot of Universal. The year was 1966 and the set was Beau
Geste. There was no Universal Tour back then and Beau Geste later became Universal City Walk. Grip
equipment was built by each of the Major Studios. The gear was heavy, cumbersome and not designed
for location work. Companies like Mole Richardson, Morgan Manufacturing, and Hollywood Scene Dock
manufactured some grip equipment, but for the most part, the studios built their own.
Across town at Paramount Studios, Roy Isaia was in the canvas room sewing backings, overheads, scrims,
and flags. Eventually Isaia moved into production working on shows, gripping for Bonanza, I Spy andothers. Grips like Art Brooker, Kenny Adams, the Deats brothers, the Records, the Rez family, Gailan
Shultz, and too many others to mention were thinking about lighter, more portable gear. With a little
encouragement from his friends, Roy ventured out to start his own company. Thus, studio outsourcing
was born.
I continued on at Universal and then moved over to M.G.M. and Fox, CBS, and Paramount Desilu, working
with heavy lights and burdensome lighting stands, still pulling cable. Gaffers like Earl Gilbert, Goldie
Garnell, and Buck Cannel, to name only a few, were looking for lighter, more portable lighting instruments.
With a little encouragement from my friends I started my company WAYNCO. We specialized in thedesign and manufacture of the lightweight “Golden Eagle” Arc Light. The Arc (as it was referred to)
produced 225 amps of Brute power. Also, Brute was its other nick name and, weighing in at 250 pounds,
it was indeed a brute to lift. The lightweight version became popular, and in 1971 I sold WAYNCO to
Cinemobile Sytems, a Taft Broadcasting Company.
Back across town Roy’s business was beginning to develop - as was his wife Dianna - and with the birthof their first son Matthew, a company name was born. Matthews Studio Equipment, July 1968.

When I joined Matthews, Roy was in the process of expanding the product line to include hardware, andI was still playing rock-n-roll (but that’s a whole other story!). Back then there was no real or defined
standard to the equipment. Grip was 1 inch diameter and Electric was 11/8". To complicate things evenfurther, the fact that so many of the major studios built their own gear created even more confusion. Our
first stand was the welded-base 40" Century Stand with a 5/8" male pin and two aluminum (not brass) riser
castings. The Combination Stand (Combo) came next, and people thought: a stand to be used by both
Grip and Electric? The thought of mixing the two disciplines was controversial at best.
As we progressed, outsourcing for the major studios and rental companies became a one-stop-shop
convenience. The spring loaded c-stands grew to be the standard, as did the Combo Stand. Roller stands,
scissor track, collapsible overhead frames, beefy baby stands, junior and senior stands, Doorway dollies,
camera mounts, and other rigs were all being developed and improved upon. Times were good. We wereyoung and aggressive, and we loved the fact that we brought so many new products to the business. We
were full of ideas and having a lot of fun making every day an adventure. Isaia saw other opportunities
and in 1974 he sold Matthews to me and my partner Carlos DeMattos. As Carlos and I continued to growthe company we inspired other new technologies. Cam Remote was the first remote camera control
device, other than the one-off used in the making of the picture Grand Prix. Tulip was the first folding
portable crane of its type. And, let’s not forget the Vator family: Crank, Low-boy and Super. Today theindustry enjoys a large selection of remote camera systems and even more crane options to choose from.
The art of grip equipment evolved into a comprehensive range of tools serving the film industry, and now
we were really having fun. Just ask anyone who hung out with us! We were honored with two awards fortechnical achievement from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and one from the Academyof Television Arts and Sciences.
It is said that the highest form of flattery is to be copied. Well, over the many years Matthews has been

3in the business of pioneering grip technology, we have been repeatedly flattered. Just look around.
In 1989 we were having so much fun we took the company public: MATT on the NASDAQ. By 1998 the fun
had stopped for me; I was no longer having a good time and I purchased my company back by spinning
it out from the public arena.

As I reflect on my over fifty years in this crazy industry, and especially my forty-six years with Matthews,
I think about all of the many relationships with crew people, our employees, and those who supported
the company with creative ideas for new products; as well as the customers, studios, rental houses, andtechnicians who choose to do business with Matthews. I am very appreciative and extremely thankful. We
look forward to our future and wish all good luck and good health.
NOW…Matthew is living in Southern California. Carlos is with his own company. Unfortunately, Roy Isaia
passed away in early 2015. Me…. I am still at Matthews, designing and making widgets, working with myson Tyler, and loving every minute of it all.
Thank you, and my sincere best wishes to everyone. What a journey!

STANDSThe History of C-Stands

11

In 1974 Matthews Studio Equipment
introduced the industry’s first foldingbase C-Stand. (C-Stand and Century
Stand are registered trademarks ofMatthews Studio Equipment.) Matthews
now produces a wide range of C-Stands
and related accessories to assist
the motion picture, television andphotographic professional in lighting andlighting modification support. The term‘Century Stand’ goes back to the earlydays of motion picture production.

A
B

These popular stands are available inmany different configurations, lengths
and finishes. The unique staggered leg
design allows C-Stands to be nested
and therefore be placed extremely close
to one another on set. The lower leg canalso be slid under many objects. The C+
offers a removable base for the risers
making disassembly for travel simple
and easy without being cumbersome or
having the awkwardness typical of othermanufacturers. The sliding leg allows
for use on stairs, off curbs and even as
high as a desk or counter top. Fast, easy
opening and closing.

Before there was artificial lighting
the stages would revolve to allow forcontinuous overhead lighting from thesun. Large reflectors would be positioned
to bounce or kick the overhead light up
onto the stage and illuminate the set andactors. These reflectors were made inmany sizes but it seems the most popular
was the 100 inch, or ‘century’, sizedreflector. In later years studios, grips andgaffers began to manufacture the earliest
versions of what we now call C-Stands.
The original C-Stands had welded basesthat did not fold up or adjust but the factthat they easily nested together madethem invaluable on the stage. Century
Stands or ‘C’ stands are an importantcomponent in the image makers arsenalof tools.

C-Stand Kit Bags

C-Stands are a necessity, but anyone that has worked on a small or traveling production knows that carrying a few can be
an awkward burden. Until now the industry has lacked a well thought out and durable solution. Matthews, the company thatinvented the C-Stand, has taken its years of experience and market feedback to deliver a solution that the industry has secretly
been longing for. The C-Stand Rolling KitBag and C-Stand Shoulder KitBag are the first two in a new line of Matthews KitBags
designed to make traveling with C-Stands a pleasure. The rolling kit bag will accommodate three turtle base C-stands withheads and arms, as well as compartments for other small accessories including: Road Rags, Road Flags III, and a variety of clamps
and more. Both C-Stand KitBags are designed with the following high performance features:•Water Resistant 900D Polyester & Ballistic Nylon Exterior•Easy-view Padded Red Interior•ABS Honeycomb & High Density Close-Cell EVA Foam Padding•Durable Internal Side Walls to Inhibit Wearholds (2) fixed base c - stands & comes with

Stands are compact and lightweight, ideal for assembling custom lighting kits or replacing your current stands. Revenger Stands
employ a ‘brake shoe’ system for locking off the riser tubes as opposed to ‘pinch castings,’ therefore permitting the use of heavier
fixtures and also feature a wider footprint for increased stability, beefed up leg braces, and a very low price. Ideal for students,
studio or location.

By their very nature, spherical cameras see everything and are often left unattended amidst the action. They require a strong
support system that is unobtrusive on set, and can be easily removed from the shot in post. The VRig is a system specificallydesigned to have a small footprint to minimize nadir hole and shadow obstruction, yet maintains rock solid stability. Its uniquesteadiness design with a built-in center Barbell Weight Retainer uses either standard or Olympic plates, and lowers the centerof gravity to reduce tipping. There are also unique accessories to improve stability including a suction Pump Cup for nonporous interior surfaces and a screw-in Auger Spike for exterior locations, both effectively anchor the support system in place.
In live event applications, the spherical camera is often positioned front row and center of the action to offer viewers thedesired immersive experience. It’s essential that the camera and rigging remain inconspicuous and minimize the obstruction to
the live audience. With discretion in mind, the VRig is designed with a slim vertical riser and is equipped with a Black Elastic Leg
Skirt allowing ancillary equipment to be concealed from view. Integrated tapped female mounts for lighting fixtures and binauralmicrophones are also included to help address the rigging challenges of a spherical environment while still remaining inconspicuous.
Matthews’ half century of designing grip equipment is evident in the VRig robust and modular system design. Its aluminum
construction includes features like a rocky mountain leg, brass riser locks and an integrated handle for quick relocation. The
system can also be reconfigured as a low-angle mount for a car, tabletop, window, lawn, etc. and its ¼”-20, 3/8”, Baby and Junior
Pin interfaces integrate seamlessly with standard grip equipment to allow the creation of custom built rigging. Additional
options include a Ball Head with camera plate and a Mini Black Boom arm for angled and even negative mounting applications.

Features a strong, ergonomic handle design that spins open
and closed faster than any other. The jaws are lined with
textured rubber to help prevent surface damage and slippage.
The shaft is 1010 chrome plated steel, which is stronger thanstainless steel and less prone to bending. The Center Jaw has
a fixed jaw mounted at the base of the Baby Pin portion of
the shaft providing strong support for the pin. The End Jaw
has the fixed jaw mounted at the end of the threaded portionof the shaft. Like the Matthellini Clamp, the Extendellini is a
precision machined, chromed product for durability and easeof operation. The Extendellini works with both the 2” and 3”
Center Jaw Matthellini or Cardellini Clamps.

manufactured, are 50% less in size and weight than conventional hangers and terminate with a 3/8"-20 female thread andoptional stirrup attachment. Designed with a slightly offset pipe clamp, the Heavy Duty Telecoping Hangers slide up when
there is sufficient room between the grid and the ceiling thus allowing a 3’ Single Extension Hanger to extend from a
few inches below the grid to fully extended, terminate with a 1/2”-13 female thread and automatically come with a stirrup.

The K-Stacker II offers a simple solution for LED and FLO lighting support. Based on a concept from Canadian-based gaffer
Alex Amyot, MSE has created a strong and robust tool that turns Kino Flo LED Panels and Fluorescent Fixtures into larger soft
light sources. The K-Stacker II mounts FreeStyle 31 LED Panels and 4ft/4Bank Fixtures in a tight array for more lumen punch.
The versatile design allows for vertical mounting on a light stand, or downward mounting like a space light from a studio grid.
Mount up to three FreeStyle 31 LED Panels or two 4ft/4Banks in a row. The LED controllers and 4Bank ballasts rig on the stand,or remotely up to 75 feet away via head extension cables. Or, power the LED’s via 24VDC batteries mounted on the K-Stacker II.
Four bank Fixtures can rotate from a horizontal to a vertical light fixture mode.
Now building multiples of the production world’s most popular and professional fluorescent fixtures into a compact configuration
is easy, quick and cost saving thanks to MSE’s newest simple solution – The K-Stacker II

also serves as an on-camera monitor mount allowing for placement to be almost anywhere! Additional MICROgrip™ components
can support an on-camera light and monitor or even two monitors from the same support system.
NOTE: If your camera is not equipped with a 1/4”- 20 female thread to receive the MICROmount use a Hot

Imagination.
A prestigious award well deserved; MAX will support lighting fixtures up to 175 pounds (80Kg)
allowing you to place almost any light almost anywhere on the set — back lights, over set walls
and in places where lifts are restricted such as roof tops, balconies, etc. MAX will support a 75
pound (34Kg) light fixture up to 17.5 feet (533cm on the horizontal and over 20 feet (609cm)
in elevation. MAX’s horizontal plane can be adjusted from 7-10 feet (213-305cm) and at an
extension of 8 feet (244cm) has a capacity of 175 pounds (80Kg). MAX can be counterbalancedwith either shot or sand bags and by using the standard weight plates MAX can be moved
around easily on flat, level surfaces.

415068The Matthews Elevator system is a counterbalanced elevation tower designed to give operators 25.5” of smooth verticalmovement, as well as a complete 360 degrees of rotation. The Elevator was specifically designed to work with a variety ofcamera platforms including heavy-duty sliders like the Matthews Slider, Doorway Dollies, The Dutti Dolly, tripods, pipe dollies,
high hats, bazookas, or any other platform or adapter that uses an elemac mounting base.
The system gives budget conscious film makers and smaller productions the ability to create compelling vertical camera moves
without having to rely on conventional dollies or cranes. The 25.5” of travel will cover the range between sitting and standing
positions.
The Elevator features a simple 1:1 counterweight (Olympic size barbells), infinite 360 degree panning, multiple 3/8-16 threadedholes for mounting accessories and or triangulating. Its rugged design will support any camera/ fluid head combo up to 23kgs
or 50.5 pounds.

The time-proven, favorite, heavy-duty tripod for location videography with heavy camera and lens packages. Nearly every
sports remote broadcast, — including auto racing, baseball, football, and wrestling — depends on the MT-1 for the firm, stable
platform required for ‘whip’ pans and other rapid camera movements with no tripod jitter, twist or swaying. Camera mobility canbe achieved by using the DL-7 Dolly. Additionally, the MT-1 can be mounted to the Doorway Dolly for either track or surface
running. Leveling the MT-1 has been simplified by placing the leveling bubble in the center post. The MT-1 now offers a new andimproved braking system, furthering its handling and stabilizing capabilities. The MT-1 has proven itself over the years in camera,
microwave dish and other electronic device support with a load capacity of 265lbs. and an operating range of 25” to 44”.

The Dutti Dock is a camera docking sled that when paired with a Ronford Baker Quick Release Plate (RBQ) or similar locking plate,can convert medium weight light stand into a convenient camera support. Ideal for camera test bays, docking cameras between
hand-held takes, or performing on-set camera maintenance, lens changes and data transfers. It is a safe and reliable alternative
to the common practices of resting the camera on a knee or placing on carts, sandbags and apple boxes. Because the light standbase is smaller, lighter and faster to adjust and move than typical fluid head and tripod, it’s also great for positioning the camera
during set lighting, talent blocking and rehearsals.

A simple but elegant design that is expanding the versatility of the common dolly shot. Born on-set, the Dutti Dolly has evolved
directly from the demands of cinematographers to either get low or move in tight spaces without sacrificing stability. James
Saldutti, a Dolly Grip known as ‘Dutti’ in the Hollywood community, began developing this dolly nearly 15 years ago. Since thattime, the Dutti Dolly has been used on hundreds of feature films, television shows and commercials.
Through a partnership with Matthews, the Dutti Dolly is now commercially available. The design has been refined with a sturdy
1/2” thick rectangular CNC’d aluminum platform and a built-in Mitchell mount. Measuring 20” x 24”, it rolls extremely low to theground at just under 2” in height while remaining incredibly stable whether riding directly on smooth surfaces, or on rails. Its
8 inline skate wheels and universal stand brackets allow it ride smoothly on speed rail or on tubing found in a local hardware
store such as round, square, angle or PVC. It’s perfect for smaller or traveling productions where fast set-ups are required andequipment is limited. Despite its small size, Dutti Dolly remains incredibly stable and adaptable. It can be mounted on the
ground, on stands or apple boxes, over or underslung without the wobble seen on other small dollies. The compact footprint iseasy to set-up and transport, yet large and durable enough for standing or sitting applications, and is compatible with mounting
tripods, bazookas, tilt plates and other accessories. There is no other dolly in the world like it.

This highly powerful upgrade to the popular heavy-duty, 32-wheeled camera support dolly, the CENTIPEDE II system features“split” carriages that ensure even smoother tracking and contact on curved track. Instead of four carriages with eight wheels, itfeatures 8 carriages with four wheels each. Splitting the large carriages into two smaller carriages allows each individual carriage
to pivot quicker and more precisely to accommodate the changing radiuses of curved track layouts. The durometer or hardnessof the wheels of the CENTIPEDE II are also harder than the original and will result in reduced flat spots that may occur after.

With a larger, heavier duty platform than the Doorway, the wider, longer platform provides an even smoother ride with its larger,
wider tires and extended wheelbase. This Dolly can be equipped with a turret assembly and allows for the mounting of two seats
and a complete camera configuration supported by a Mitchell Base. The Western Dolly’s Pop-Off wheels allow quick removal andeasy storage. The axle is integrated into the wheel assembly to prevent the axle from becoming separated from the wheel upon
removal. Whether used as an equipment transportation vehicle or as a camera platform, the Western Dolly provides reliable,
heavy-duty, steady support at a reasonable price. While the configuration of the Western Dolly axle has often been copiedby competitors, field observation has proven that none have been successful in matching the strength of the Matthews axle.
Because it is impossible to anticipate the manner in which the Dolly will be loaded or the slope of the terrain on which it will be
used, Matthews has learned that the capacity of each axle must match the total capacity of the Dolly. The strongest Dolly of
its type in the business.

CAUTION: Matthews does not recommend that the two types of track be used together. The chrome plating used on the
Heavy Wall can create size buildup and the finished diameter may be slightly larger. This can create a noticeable “bump” at
the joint. Matthews curved tracks are available to complete 10’ and 20’ diameter circles. Be advised that most dollies will
not navigate the 10’ circle without the addition of a multi-wheeled device such as the Matthews Centipede II PN395205.
Matthews manufactures and supplies the industry with both Heavy Wall and Stainless Steel Dolly Track. Heavy Wall ismanufactured from 11/2” diameter steel tube and is chrome plated to protect it from negative environmental effects. It is slightly
less expensive than Stainless Steel track. Stainless steel track does not require plating. Due to the inherent characteristics ofthe material, it is impervious to the elements. Additionally, all Matthews track now has black cross members. Four pieces of 90º
Curve Track are needed to complete a circle. Eight pieces are required for 20’ diameter circle. All Matthews Dolly Track is rated
to a maximum payload of 1200 lbs (545kg) at the industry standard of 24.5” center to center track width.

In an effort to satisfy the ever changing tastes and requirements of the international production industry, Matthews Studio
Equipment is introducing VOODOO cloth diffusion. VOODOO cloth is a full density fabric that produces extremely soft diffusionthat is suitable for overheads and butterflies as well as 4’x4’s when used with large, single-point light sources such as sunlight or
fresnel fixtures. Initially utilized to produce soft, non-specular diffusion from multi-lamped LED fixtures, VOODOO cloth produces
large amounts of ambient light bounce when utilized as an overhead or butterfly.

Open End Frames are made of stainless steel with a 3/8” pin and support which can be used to hang the Scrim from a C-Stand
handle when not in use. The two upright arms of the frame are slotted at the two open ends to retain the piano wire woven
through the fabric to make up the fourth side of the frame without causing a shadow. Open Ends are used to control or manipulate
light falling on certain areas of the set or subject. They can be used to soften or reduce light without a noticeable edge. A color
coded binding is used around the frame to identify the fabric.

The Cucoloris is used to create shadow patterns on backgrounds or subjects. A flat lit wall can be broken up into interesting poolsof light and shadow. Lighting directors frequently use them to simulate sunlight filtering through trees. While the wood “cookies”
create a distinctive pattern, the Cello “cookie” projects a more subtle pattern. The pattern itself depends on the distance of thelight source and the distance to the background. Super Cello Cucoloris are hand-blown with unique patterns. The 40”x40” and48”x48” Cello Cucoloris has webbing on four sides rather than three.

style ears — Matthews Backdrop Ears. By extending the 409525 Backdrop Ear Round Connector and the 409216 Square QUIKReverse Backdrop Ear away from the Grip Head through a series of extensions and well designed bends, Matthews has achieved
what was virtually impossible to accomplish using the older style ears when hanging lighting control fabrics. Backdrop Ears areavailable in black only but come in two styles — square and round. Now what are you going to do with all that time you justsaved? PATENT PENDING

Matthews Stainless Wire Diffusion (SST) is impervious to rust and holds up well under uneven, intense heat, thus making it
preferable for use with open face or Fresnel lighting fixtures. Stainless Scrims do not diffuse the light; their function is to reduce
light output at the source. Scrims do not affect the color temperature and produce no electronic interference. They may be
stacked to achieve limitless variation of light intensity. Halves are employed to reduce a portion of the beam and are commonlyused when the light is striking the plane of the subject or background at an angle. The half reduces the light falling on thenearest part of the plane to balance with the light reaching the most distant part of the plane.

Take a really abstract approach to an already field-proven design and you get a product with a ‘footprint’ that offers greater
stability. As a result of having a larger surface area and by having three feet, it makes leveling a whole lot easier! We justcouldn’t call it anything else - Elephant Blocks! Manufactured of the highest quality 9-ply ‘Baltic Birch’ plywood, Elephant Blocks
replace conventional Basso Blocks. The improved design allows them to stack in limitless configurations in 1” increments whileaccomplishing the same elevating function and support as Bassos. And they occupy less space!

Sandbags are used whenever you need extra weight to prevent tipping. You usually “bag” stands, especially when theweight is off center, such as with a heavy Scrim. They help stabilize equipment in windy situations and can counterbalance Boom Arm applications. Matthews fills our Sandbags with sanitized sand to prevent algae growth if they get
damp. The empty bags are completely sewn except for a 1” seam, left open for the user to fill and then sew closed. Thiscan save on the shipping charges, however, the user will require a heavy duty machine to sew the sandbag closed properly.
