Premium Black Non-Reflective Professional Grade Gaffers Tape | Gaffers Tape Solutions
(Australia-NewsWire.Com, September 18, 2015 ) Sydney, New South Wales -- The problem with video production is that there is so much equipment surrounding the technicians such as light and audio cables, light stands and expensive photography or filming gear. There is a potential tripping hazard waiting to happen at any time. On top of this, the sound of expensive lighting or photography equipment crashing to the ground will send a cold shiver down the back of any Videographer as well as a hit to their hip pocket.
The solution to the problem is both simple and obvious; anchor the items to the table, stage or floor with tape.
Today, professional photographers and cinematographers always have a roll of tape handy, for such a problem and over the years a special tape has evolved that is strong, heatproof, waterproof and most importantly, it doesn't leave a sticky residue after being pulled off. That tape is called Gaffers Tape.
The review was written by Steve Douglas, a skilled Videographer/Editor, who has 30 years experience in the industry. Steve has worked on filming projects for National Geographic, The History and Disney Channels as well as many other shoots from around the world. With such experience it stands to reason that, when Steve speaks, people in the industry would stop and listen.
In his review, Steve talks about why the use of masking tape and duct tape is not a smart idea. For reasons such as;
• How sticky residue is usually left behind on both flooring and carpets resulting in complaints from clients after a film shoot in their home or studio • The damage that may occur to flooring when using second-rate masking/duct tape
Steve then goes on to point out some of the real quality features that "Gaffers Tape Solutions" black matte gaffer tape has to offer. These include;
• A tape that has a professional material like finish, making for a neater look • Unlike PVC gaff/duct tape, this tape does not create light reflections • It is waterproof and heat resistant • It doesn't absorb heat or melt under strong hot lights • Cables are left free from tacky residue allowing for a quick and easy pack up
To round off the review, Steve gives one last impression of the tape. It would seem that he is impressed with the performance of this Gaffer Tape for a most professional outcome. Steve stated that;
• "There are many brands of gaffer's tape but this is definitely one of the better ones. I will continue using it and will buy more when my roll has been depleted".
The above testimonial is that of an experienced Videographer/Editor explaining the pros and cons of gaffer tape especially that of Gaffers Tape Solutions. Steve states that the black matte gaffer tape performs well under many different circumstances and is impressed by its performance in a professional environment. Steve's Amazon review goes into greater detail about the gaffer tape and how he used it in this line of work. Steve also declares that when the tape runs out, he would buy more.
