Hi, my name is David and I run a creative production company. We are currently in the process of fixing and renovating our studio. We have already made significant progress in building soundproofing and the like, but now we plan to put together a small photo/film set. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, I mean "a room within a room." Two walls joined at a 90-degree angle and a floor (you could say half a cube). Everything will be supported and mounted in a frame of wooden studs that we will construct, and for the walls, we will use gypsum boards (cheap and easy). The floor will rest directly on the existing floor, but we want to use a sheet material that can withstand walking on and is easy to repaint for different projects and photoshoots. Everything will be painted white initially. We considered MDF for the floor, but it seems difficult to obtain at the moment. Chipboard? I've heard that it can be tricky to repaint. OSB is even more challenging; it becomes uneven and has a lot of patterns. So the question is, what type of material should we use for the floor? The most important thing is that it should be easy to repaint and look nice. We don't want to buy a material that has a lot of unevenness or requires a lot of work and money to fix. Simple and cost-effective is what we are looking for. Any tips?

I just saw something about floor plasterboard? What's the opinion on it, or is MDF preferable?
 
Drive MDF, floor gypsum is not meant to be walked on.
