Review on AFHT 5X7Portable Backdrop Collapsible Chromakey by Mario Anderson

This is a pretty good green/blue screen. It's not as bright as some I've used, but it gets the job done and folds up into a small package. The fabric is thick enough that you can't see through it, blue shirt, you can use the key against green and vice versa. I like that the screen has a flexible yet rigid bezel so it stays in place when you lean the screen against a wall, bed, table, etc. without having to use the included stand. The screen comes in a round black pouch. Although some people say you can easily put the screen back in your pocket if you watch the video they link to in the package. You will learn how to do this a little later. I wish the bag was a bit thicker and the zipper was a better quality. The stand does the job, but it's not the most durable. It doesn't bend or flex in use, but if you're not careful you could bend something or break one of the plastic parts. Unfortunately, the stand is not attached to the bag, nor is it included. You need to carry and store it separately. In fact, straps had to be attached to the screen pocket to hold the stand. There's only a small loop in the pocket, not big enough for a stand and doesn't work well as a handle. Overall this is a useful product that works well as a background but for the price I paid I feel better about it. Including stand and bag could be of better quality. I will try to explain how to fold the screen to put it back in your pocket. I still recommend watching the video they link to on the instruction card though. However, this description should be a lot more helpful than the useless images they contain on the instruction card. Remove the display from the stand if currently attached.2. Hold the screen with the 7ft (taller) side up in front of you and hold on to the shorter sides. (You need to be in a room with some space in front of you to avoid hitting anything.) In my experience, it doesn't matter which side of the screen is facing you.3. With one hand, grab the middle of the top edge of the screen and fold it in half forward (away from you) so the top touches the bottom edge of the screen (with a curve). At this point, it feels a bit like an upside-down taco, where you pinch the closed end of the taco where the open end would normally be. 1. Alternative method: You can also support this process by folding the top down while lifting the bottom frame with the bottom (back a little when folding). In this case, the "taco" mouth is facing away from you and not at floor 4. While still holding the top halves together, lift the screen. It should now look like a taco standing upright with the open end closed. Lay the bottom of this taco on the ground. Stay behind the screen.5. Bend the top of the taco and look at the front. You should note that the front is slightly curved on both sides (taco edges).6. Press the screen against your legs, grasp the sides of the front half of the taco, and bend the left front of the screen (behind the screen from your perspective) so the bezel is behind the right front. Because of the frame tension, he won't get far. At this point you have one half of the screen flat and resting on your feet with the front looking a bit like an elongated cylinder. If you did everything correctly, the front should look a bit like the top of a jug. Slightly pull the still rolled up "jug" forward. It shouldn't be much. But it will help in the next step.8. At the top of the "jug" insert the ring formed by the frame into the back of the screen supported by your feet. It will be a little strange, but it works.9. Grasp the front of the screen, making sure the "ring" you just folded clicks into place and you close the top. If you got it right, the screen should turn into something round and about the size of a pizza. Most of the tension on the frame should be gone as well. 10. You can now hold it with one hand and put it in the pouch that came with it. I know it takes a lot of words to describe this process, but it's not hard (just explain it in words). watch the video
