Gaff tape, also known as gaffer tape, is a special adhesive video tape used in the film industry on sets. This type of tape differs from regular tape in that it doesn’t leave adhesive residue on surfaces, is durable, and has a matte surface to avoid adding glare to camera lenses. Gaff tape is available in various colors and widths. It is the most versatile and essential tool on a film set. It can be used to secure equipment, mark scenes, fasten cables, serve as tracking markers for VFX, and even mark the focus zones for actors.
