question
If I'm using it for video, and have an led main and hair light;1. Is it possible to get enough light from led lights inside the background? 2. Wouldn't there be a spill issue?
To use the green screen most effectively, it would need to be lit independently from the subject.

How challenging is it to control wrinkles with this backdrop over the 6'x7' HiLite?
The cover stretches taught over the frame on the Hilite. If you check the video in the overview tab at the bottom of the page you will see what it looks like after you do. If you run into creases they can generally be easily released with a clothing steamer.

question
I heard from someone that this background is opaque. I also read on your site that there is no need to relight the background, leading me to believe that the lighting from behind it will light it evenly and sufficiently. Please shed light on this contradiction...?
It works best against a background that does not emit light. Also a four light setup provides no shadows behind the subject.
