I recently purchased this movie film clap, to put in a basket for a friend of mine. While it may not be a blockbuster movie itself, this clapboard holds a special place in my heart. The design of the clapboard is iconic and instantly recognizable. It's a reminder of the golden age of cinema when each take was carefully recorded with a satisfying clap sound.

The media could not be loaded. I’d recommend this to anyone who’s going to use this for filming.Yes it comes with a marker but the eraser DOES NOT erase the marker, BUT using wipes does remove it. AND using chalk works so if you ever run out of the marker you can use chalk instead.Very sturdy, paint is good, has a very nice clapping sound and would recommend for anyone.

Love this movie clapper! We use it at our watch parties for our American dream TV episodes. It is fabulous for everyone to hold in front of our backdrop. It’s a perfect size and it’s really nice quality. The marker that comes with it works well. Great value!

Slightly bigger than I anticipated and very difficult to erase, but does the job. I wish it was made of a better material so erasing would be easier but I suppose if they did that then I’d be constantly rewriting everything I smudged off. It’s a double edged sword.

I like the blackness of the color, is really deep and also the white is truly white, the surface is very easy to write on and cleaning is a breeze.It comes with an erasable white pen, which is very easy to clean with a wet cloth, no residue is left whatsoever. I haven't used chalk on it, so I can't tell is it's easy to erase too.One thing I really like is the fact that the back of it is all black and you can write and eras as well, so that gives you a blank black board for other purposes not just as a cinema clapper.The hinge on it works very smooth, a gentle push/pull will close/open it but is strong enough to hold the weight of the upper part very well.I got this as a photography prop, so to me, the finish quality is very important and because of that I give it a 4 star, there are a few things that could be better in that area, you can see the pictures where the wood is not smooth, but it doesn't affect unless your doing macro photography. But again, this is just because I use for professional photography.Overall the clapper works and looks great if you want it to use it for it's true purpose or as a party or photo prop it works wonder and at a very good price.

I bought this slate for my latest film production and it was great.It comes with a pen, is sturdy, and works like it should! My kid was our 2nd AC for the shoot and it stood up to his abuse with no damage at all! :) The slate comes with a white marker that has a built in eraser on the tip… we lost track of the marker and used chalk instead and didn’t have the problem we’ve had w some slates of ghost chalk staying on the slate. I have a slating app that I’ve used in the past but this just works so much better.No fumbling with your phone, no accidentally hitting the wrong button so your screen goes black, no wrong settings preventing the slate from appearing upright, no holding for focus while you try to focus in on a little phone, and best of all, you can get the clap you need for synching audio to video in post.We couldn’t hear the digital slate clap over street traffic on another production but we had no problem with this slate. Bonus, it arrived at my door quickly and in time for my shoot.Do yourself a favor and get a real slate for your shoot.

My grandson is in the Thespian Society/Drama Group at school. After such a marvelous performance this Spring flowers were given in abundance. But I wanted him to have a keepsake to recall this special occasion. This simple clipboard was perfect. He was delighted!!! Paired with his playbill and T-shirt it will make a great keepsake.It’s sturdy and is a chalkboard that comes with chalk pen. It’s what I expected. I’d buy it again.

I end up always needing a cleaning spray of some sort to clean the chalk marker off of the board. I really didn't need to find this out when on a shoot, ended up using spit because that's all I had. I can't hand this thing to anyone when I have spat all over it in order to update the markings. Now I have to carry a spray with me, another piece of equipment to track, thumbs down in that regard. It also is hard to "clack" one handed, which I have to do from time to time. For the money though, you get what you pay for, it's not a complete waste of money.
