The FPS 12x12' Modular Overhead Butterfly Frame is a 12-foot by 12-foot rigid frame system for flying large diffusion, silks, or solids overhead. At this size, the frame is what's used on bigger shoots to shape sunlight, kill harsh top light, or build a soft top source over a scene.

What it's for

  • Outdoor narrative and commercial shoots that need real sun control.
  • Soft top light over a dialogue scene with talent on the move.
  • Bigger studio and corporate setups where a 12x12 fits in the space.

This is the frame only; diffusion, silk, and rigging hardware are sold separately.

Available from Filmgear Canada, with Canada-wide shipping.

Zoe ★★★★★

I’ve flown 6x6 frames before and this 12x12 is a whole different beast—the rigid corners keep the diffusion drum-tight even with a breeze kicking up. The modular design let us swap out a silk for a solid in about ten minutes flat, which saved the shoot when the sun shifted.

Olivia ★★★★★

I was a little nervous about getting it into the air, but the modular design makes it surprisingly easy to set up solo on location. The 12x12 footprint is perfect for overhead diffusion on our larger shoots.

Olivia I. ★★★★★

Finally got this frame set up in the studio and it’s rock solid, even with a 12x12 silk on it. The modular design made assembly a two-person job for about 15 minutes. I’ve tried cheaper solutions and they wobbled—this one holds fast.
