QGH - Ghiaccio is a transparent and rather elastic vinyl film.
By means of Welding without superposition the Ghiaccio transparent backdrops are obtained from it, and they are used in scenography to create with their lighting an alternation between transparency and a slight mirror effect.
The film can be rolled up when used in small artifacts, while large backdrops are obligatorily folded during their manufacture and transport.
The manipulation leaves permanent traces on the film and makes the backdrops similar to large ice sheets, hence the name (ghiaccio in italian = ice).
The backdrops can be digitally printed or painted and not rarely they are used to contain smoke effects or even to make water flow on them.
