Where would you go to get thin, grainless semi-opaque semi-translucent
plastic like that found in film-to-video conversion units? Ideally, hoping
to find a place in the Orlando FL area that might have it. The grain of the
sheet needs to be non-apparent when light is projected through it and thin
enough that it doesn't perceptibly blur the image. Also can't be glossy or
the reflection of the capturing camera will be visible in the image.
Thanks for all input. |

Hey, I really appreciate it. Seems like a very doable project. What I'm
wondering is how I figure out which halogen light will work with a given
projector. I assume the replacement halogen lamp needs to match the voltage
of the original projector lamp? >> Stay informed about: Where to find plastic like in film conversion boxes? |

Also, the projector should be aimed at the round side or the flat side? >> Stay informed about: Where to find plastic like in film conversion boxes? |

That must be drafting Mylar. It's intended for light passing through in
