How much would a white 6m wide infinity backdrop cost?

[nsa]

Guess it would be 10m x 6m taking account of ceiling to foreground. Is there a special type of fabric to get the right curve at the foot of the wall?

Any idea how much this should cost?

There's a mix of stuff on ebay ranging from £30 - £100

Guess it depends on whether you want paper or fabric, but someone who's doing more studio stuff than me would probably know more

metres...

Paper rolls stop at 3.5 metres wide, so you'd probably be looking at fabric. Stage hire places might have that kind of thing, but it is really big.

Could you use something smaller and fix it in Photoshop?

It's for video so I can't photoshop. It also needs to be durable because I will have to drive cars on and off quite regularly. I'll check out ebay (should have done it already). Ideally if there's a type of fabric that works well I can search for this.

If it's for a permenant studio then normal way would be a hard building material, possibly concrete I guess, blend into walls / floor then paint the whole lot (and you can repaint as needed with cheap concrete paint). Having seen one in the flesh in a pro studio, they are a nightmare, you just can't judge distances or tell how far away the walls are!

The phrase is 'infinity cove', and yes, it's like the room is full of fog. I heard of a model on a moped who rode straight into the wall! I have a miniature 'infinity cove' in my studio made from sheets of mounting board faired in and painted. If I should fall through it I have no idea which galaxy I'll end up in...

Might be worth giveing the guys at The Flash Centre a call to see what they can do for you...

Thanks for the infinity cove tip. Got a joiner looking at it and he'll come back with a quote.
