Title: High Fashion Posing Blocks
Post by: PLLove on May 01, 2009, 10:06:24 pm

Does anyone know where I can buy the high fashion posing blocks.  They are usually white or black cubes.  An example is used in the video from one of the photographers I like.

Depending on your area the best place to source blocks like that is actually child playground equipment manufacturers. They almost all make them in one form or another - and they can easily be painted to any color you might need.

My favorite source for chair backs (without the rest of the chair) and half wagon wheels!

looked like a regular apple box to me (bhphoto.com or calumetphoto.com). or have a woodworker build you one, its usually cheaper.

Yeah, I would like to have a white seamless cube.  The Denny product is just what I need but so expensive!  I've got to wait on these for right now.

yes those products are expensive. i doubt there wouldnt be anything that couldnt be built for more than $50. its simple 1/2" plywood construction that shouldnt take an hour.
