Mainly I just want to experiment with artificial lighting, and I'll probably be doing a lot of closeups. Is there a particular kind of fabric I should use? I was going to just go to my local fabric store and buy some black velvet.
Thanks, Amita ========== I bought a black sheet (non-satin). Cheaper. But black does tend to suck up light. They, surprisingly, make a lot of black sheets these days. (You do have to iron it.) I am also thinking of getting a blue one. HTH, Marnie aka Doe
