I'm photographing food I want to make png's of for 3d texture maps.

the blue screen like they used in Lord of the Rings looks like it would be handy in a kitchen table size.

Thanks.

Attached is a link to a Blue Screen or Chroma Key Screen.  Don't think this will help you photograph food textures though as these screens are mainly used to overlay/mix video and graphics -

What you do need is good lighting and possibly a macro lens to capture details in the food to use as 3d textures - Here is a link  with tips on food photography - www.professionalphotography101.com/photography/HowtoPhotographFood.html

Hope this helps!
