Abstract: A portable, collapsible video production system includes a case having a top lid connected to a bottom lid, a lift rigidly secured within the case to the top lid or the bottom lid, and a collapsible camera system rigidly secured to a top of the lift. The camera system includes a bottom frame member housing a computer with a screen, a middle frame member housing a transparent substrate that, when angled with respect to the bottom frame member, is configured to project an image of the screen to a user facing the case, and a top frame member housing a camera that, when angled with respect to the bottom frame member, is configured to aim the camera through the transparent substrate at a user facing the case. The bottom frame, the middle frame, and the upper frame are pivotably connected to each other along a hinge axis.

Abstract: A clamp for securing an element to a structure comprises, a first part and a second part, engageable into a assembled state about the element to be secured. A flexible element is attached to the first part and the second part, which flexible element allows independent movement of the first part and second part when the clamp is not assembled. The clamp further comprises a tensioning mechanism adapted to hold the flexible element taught when the clamp is in the assembled state.

Abstract: In the bag pack disclosed herein, a plurality of thermoplastic "T-shirt-type" carry bags are joined together in a pack by both a hot weld around a central rack-mounting aperture and also by readily frangible pressure bonds linking the film layers forming the bag handles to allow for handle support while on a rack dispensing system. A "pull tab" adjacent the aperture is provided to allow easy opening of each bag in the pack.
