Large Animation Rostrum complete with LED lights
Our large rostrum with LED panels, offers a rigid stand and excellent lighting system. The column is ratcheted, meaning your camera can be moved up and down with the turn of a handle. It is also angled which helps maintain a central camera position as your camera moves up and down. In addition there is a quick release plate for attaching your camera.
The base board measures 40cm x 48cm (portrait) and the column is 72cm high. The rostrum can support cameras weighing up to 5KG.

Our large rostrum with LED lights is a great piece of kit. The rostrum is ideal for "under the camera" animation techniques. Cut out, smudge and click and sand animation are all well suited to our rostrum; which can also be used as a copy stand for photographic purposes. It can also be used as a line tester.
Measuring 14cm x 21cm, the LED light panels are made up of 96 beads. They are 18 watt and have a colour temperature of 5600K. The lights are mains powered with a voltage range of 110-240v. The plug will be suitable for UK use, but simple travel adaptors can be used for use outside the UK.
The column, which measures 72cm in height is ratcheted, enabling your camera to be moved up and down with the turn of a handle.
