Scrim jims, butterflys, overheads, 4x4 frames, whatever you want to call them, are a staple on almost every film set or video shoot. They are great at turning any light into a large soft light source; they can be used to even out the light during outdoor shoots; and you can use them, with a dark fabric, as large flags. They’re versatile, they’re sturdy, they have a lot of uses, and by building them ourselves, they’re certainly worth having at least one in your kit. These normally retail for upwards of $150-$200, but we’re going to make our own for around $80.
MATERIALS:

All said and done you should be able to get all the materials above for just under $80. As with all my DIY builds I don't look for the cheapest option, rather I want the best option (durable, reliable, professional, and usable) for the price - if you want to go super frugal just grab some PVC pipe, some fittings, and a white twin bed sheet from WalMart.
