Good morning all. Wondered if anyone has experience of Click backgrounds ("Click props is a division of Click Connection Corporation). Got an email through from them yesterday and they look pretty decent and not too expensive. I am looking to use the floor rather than background.
We have both pop up black velvet (Thanks Noirdude !) and lastolite but I really hate the seamless floating in space look and hate the creases and thin vinyl of the lastolite train even more so prefer to have a contrasting wooden floor or similar where possible. Obviously not everyone has a wooden floor hence looking to provide one. As on location and not in a studio, has to be reasonably portable, hence looking at these vinyls.
Main question to anyone sho has used these or can recomend similar, are they nice and thick vinyl that will lay flat and not crease with footfall.
Alternatively, what to look for if just using a nice thick vinyl from a carpet store, assuming a matt finish would be better ?
 
The vinyl flooring from carpet shops is a good choice as a lot of them are embossed with the wood grain which adds some nice texture to shots. I have a few roll up vinyl floors from PHOTOGRAPHERS FLOORS & BACKDROPS and the are also very good. They are pretty heavy duty, think along the lines of banner material. Buy one get one half price too. They are lighter and easier to set up than Lino.
