Scrim

The right lighting creates scrim magic:
Scrim will become opaque when lit at a sharp angle in front of a scene that’s kept dark As the area behind the scrim gets lighter, the scene will “bleed through” and appear. When light is taken off the scrim, it will become virtually invisible To create an even stronger effect hang a blackout curtain behind the scrim. Use this trick to make the performers onstage disappear and reappear. For a total effect finish off the look with borders and legs on the top and sides.

Show off a starry night sky:
Combine with ShowLED starcloth systems to portray a magical night sky (see specials) or for midnight blue background lighting.

The best way to hang scrims?
Like canvases, scrims are hung flat without pleats and weighted on the bottom with a Fastco-pipe.
