Paper would likely NOT work for rear projection. You could try a sheet... but they are generally a pretty tight weave and the white would reflect back a lot of the light from the projector.

Literally a sheet would do the trick. Or paper. Just depends on how wide you need it. Take lumens and divide that by the amount of the width of your image.

just found out that I got approved for my short-throw high-lumen projector, and I want to use it for our upcoming show. I have a black back wall and need something quick and easy to hang, as there probably isn't enough time to paint it. Additionally, my district takes a long time to set up a new vendor, so I'm looking for a solution on Amazon. I know I could research this further, but I'm feeling overwhelmed right now.
