Savage plastic

Was watching a video earlier of Alex from Photigy talking about his modifiers etc and he mentioned a company called Savage plastic he uses for using as a backdrop / base as well as using for strobe scrims, large diffusing panels etc. Here's a link to the product but more importantly a good video as well of Mark from Adorama using it 3 different ways for portraits

May have to get a roll of this to try out. There are cheaper brands / sizes on eBay - search diffusing gel

Anyone using it already?

I buy my back drop's from
viewfinder in Leicester

Agree, I've used these guys a fair bit as well, excellent service and price is about right.

Thanks both, couldn't see the funky plastic sheet though

They do sell boom arms reasonably cheap though!

Yes. It IS slowly strangling our world! But this thread seems to be about backdrops - not economics or ecology.
Perhaps you could start a valid thread about photography, plastic and pollution?
