Media Wall: the specification
A media wall is not designed for the people in the room.
A step-and-repeat media wall carries a logo lockup repeated on a fixed pitch so that at least one full logo appears in any photograph cropped to a person.
That last question decides the logo pitch, which is the only genuinely technical decision on a media wall.
A media wall exists to put a logo inside a photograph of somebody’s head and shoulders.
The useful test for a media wall is not how it looks flat.

Dye-sublimated backdrop fabric
A woven polyester with the dye heated into the fibre.
Completely matt, seamless at the width of the cloth, and it folds into a bag for transport.
Sublimated.
Colour is soft, even and non-reflective, which is exactly what a camera flash needs.
Media walls, stage backdrops, anything photographed or filmed.
No common misuse for this.
Combinations that fail
- A laminated vinyl media wall. Every flash comes back as a hotspot, and the photographs the wall exists for are the ones it ruins.

Questions
Asked about media wall
Should a media wall be fabric or vinyl?
Fabric, if it is being photographed. Dye-sublimated cloth is completely matt and absorbs a camera flash; a laminated vinyl surface throws it straight back as a hotspot, which ruins the photographs the wall exists to produce.
What size should a media wall be?
3000 × 2300 mm is comfortable for two or three people in a photograph, 2400 mm wide suits a registration position, and 4000 mm and up is for group shots. The height is usually about 2300 mm so that people are well inside the frame.
