Trying to improve my projection quality without spending too much more. I live in an apartment, so painting isn't really an option. I want to hang up a limited amount of black velvet to help tone down the light reflecting back on my screen. I don't want to black out the entire room; what surfaces should I target to get the best marginal improvement?
White walls and ceilings, beige carpet. The screen is mounted on a wall near a corner; adjacent wall is about 1 foot away. Other side is blank space (wall doesn't extend all the way out) for about 6 feet. 1 foot from the ceiling, 2 feet from the floor. Short (unfortunately glass-topped) stand on the floor in front of the projector. No external light; blackout curtains all around.
I'm thinking just the close adjacent wall and ceiling, extending out about 2-3 feet from the screen. Is that enough? Anywhere else seem critical? Is that glass-topped stand going to kill me no matter what (I could probably top it with some black cloth without making it look too ridiculous)?
