Description
According to this good video on "DIY vs Professional paint":
[](https://youtu.be/y91Sk24vRuM)
https://youtu.be/y91Sk24vRuM
the professional paint is worth it for the consistent color and light reflectiveness.
The only professional paint supplier that I've found that ships _directly_ to PT (_I don't want to have it delivered to London and then have to re-ship it to PT cause that's an expensive and time-consuming faff!_)

Further investigation indicates that the paint/background matters _far less_ than the _lighting_:

> The lighting video recommends iPad/iPhone app called Green Screener by Hollywood Camera Work it's also available for Android but reviews are mixed (crashes device).
Thinking of ordering this DIY paint from Leroy:

Will test the effect and if it does not work, I will spend the big bucks on the Professional Paint.
My reasoning is that most video editing software chroma-keying is **sample**-based,
i.e. an eyedropper is used to select the color _range_ that will be keyed out. see: https://github.com/dwyl/video/issues/10#issuecomment-526541078
@iteles anything _against_ me painting _one_ wall of the [@home](https://github.com/dwyl/home) Media room?
(_should we ask Carlos **first** in case his chap can help or he has any objections_...?)
