I have been accepted into the product photography fold at work - which is a scary prospect! At the moment, our photography department is churning out crap like this, which then comes to me to have an hour or two of meticulous turd polishing until it looks presentable enough to be displayed and is on a white background.
Lighting there is a mix of ambient energy saver, window light from the right and a truly crappy assemblage of energy savers in a square reflector. Yes that's the leg of the tripod and yes that's the office floor.
My plan is to use a 3m white bacckdrop lit by my YN560s, balanced with ambient. Not sure what material would be best? It's car parts so needs to be cleanable really since there is a lot of grubby stuff. Portability will be important as I'm most likely going to be stuffed into a new corner each week as there is no space for this sort of thing. There's no budget either, though when I point out how much he's paid me for the last 50 photos I might be able to prise a couple of hundred from him. So where should I be looking?
