PRO TIP: How to Set Up a C-Stand
The one piece of equipment you're guaranteed to run into on set is the C Stand (or Century Stand). It's a metal stand used for rigging and supporting lighting and grip equipment. Dominic D'Astice (key grip on RocketJump: The Show) shows you the basics for properly setting up and using a c stand safely on set.
