Q: 1. Do the frame and panels lay flat, or just in the C shape? And assuming it won’t self support if set up flat, any recommendations for supporting it upright?

A: If you position the frame flat, it would not be able to support itself. If you need to use the frame completely flat, I would recommend purchasing two (2) C-stands or roller stands, one on each side of the background, and two (2) Lastolite Grip Head for Skylite Frame/Panel Reflector, B&H # LAGHSL, to grip the side of the frame for support.

Q: 2. Is this made up of one (78x78 ) and two (42x78 ) Lastolite rapid frames?

A: According to Lastolite, while the frames are similar in design to the Lastolite Skylite frames, they are not the same frames. The frame in the Lastolite Panoramic Background is larger than the Skylite frame as it is 89 inches (7 feet 5 inches) tall.

Q: 3. Can you light it from behind? OR how easy is it to light vs traditional seamless paper? Spill?

A: I contacted Lastolite with your inquiry. The manufacturer states that the Lastolite Panoramic Background (13', White) is not opaque, so light will pass through it. However, the construction of the fabric would prevent it from working like a diffuser such as the HiLite. The weave is tight and dense, so while some light would get through, it would not transmit a lot of light and it would most likely result in a hot spot rather than spreading and distributing the light across the surface like diffuser fabric would.

Q: 4. Where can I find a frame for this-- it says clips to frame, but I can't find one that matches the photo on this site?

A: This is just the material. Here it is with the frame. Lastolite Panoramic Background (13', Chromakey Green) B&H # LALB7622.

Q: 5. I need a good chromakey for a corporate client who want to do their own Software Tutorials, with two presenters. Will this backdrop be suitable for video chromakey, with two people behind a trade-stand and a coupel of laptops? How do the creases chromakey (where the two angles are) get removed in the editor? I've only tried chroamakey once for video years ago, with a cheap cloth green screen, and results were not very good in the editor.

A: The background is stretched on the frame. Properly lit you will not have to worry about wrinkles or the angles of the background.

Q: 6. do this green screen comes with the clips ?

A: It comes with the clips for the Lastolite frame.

Q: 7. how deep is this? can the sides fold flat?

A: The angle of the side frames is to balance it standing alone and it goes almost all out before becoming unbalanced while standing alone. If you want to open it up all the way, you can do that, but you will want to balance it against a wall.

Q: 8. Do they make a floor green screen that will match perfectly with this? What is the model if so?

A: You can add BH #LABGC1012G Lastolite Chromakey Background - 10x12' - Green to the floor

Q: 9. How long is the back panel between the two pivot joints? When you fold the sides forward at 45 degrees, does the material sort of bend evenly or flow, or does it create a visible up/down crease at the pivot point?

A: As per the manufacturer, the middle panel is 2 meters wide or 6.6 inches while the outer panels are 1 meter wide or 3.28 inches wide. The material does bend evenly as you fold the frame.

Q: 10. Can you wash this screen?

A: You can't machine wash, but you can spot clean with a mild detergent (like Woolite or baby shampoo) and make sure to blot it dry, not rub.
