I'm new here and not the greatest at household DIY so I'm seeking advice. I live in a house with an open plan living room and kitchen. I have actually converted the living room into a music studio/band rehearsal area. What I want to do is put up a green screen curtain between the living room and kitchen, connected to a curtain pole, which can be used as a backdrop for videos and also be tidied away like a normal curtain when not in use. I've attached a photo taken from the living room looking at the kitchen. I want the curtain to run across the area where the strip divides the kitchen floor with the living room carpet - from the left side in front of the first cupboard to the back of the door on the right. The width is approx 3.3 metres.
I was thinking of buying a retractable curtain pole so it can be set to fit the length exactly. Presumably I'd need 2 brackets to put the curtain pole on, but how do I connect the brackets? To the ceiling? To the side walls? What shape/sort of bracket would I need? Or would I be better off simply getting a spring loaded curtain pole, which would then not need any brackets? I haven't seen one that wide, though.
The green screen curtain wouldn't be that heavy I don't think. I was planning on using some sort of green screen fabric, cutting it to size (width and height), then connecting it the the curtain pole with clip on curtain hooks.
Any advice and ideas about how to do this would be appreciated. Thanks.
