About the cyc wall

As a professional photographer or videographer, there are numerous benefits of having a cyclorama (cyc) wall. Skyway’s 90 degree cove cyc wall in Studio C offers you unlimited possibilities when it comes to capturing your images or videos. You can appreciate a background that makes it easier to edit and otherwise manipulate photographs during the development or post-production process. The smooth and seamless appearance of our coved cyc allows you to shoot your subjects in front of a perfectly blank field with white, green or any other color background.

 
Our cyc wall gives the illusion of a large room (36’ x 27’) but also creates an easier space for you, your subject, and your camera to manipulate the end product you are creating. A flat cyc wall is a fine backdrop for basic shots, but when it comes time to reposition a shot, set up a new camera angle, and pose talent in a new position, things can get much more complex. Skyway’s cyc wall gives you more space to operate in and allows you to change your camera’s angle while keeping the movement and time to a minimum.
Skyway’s cyc can be painted in chroma key green to permit the use of green screen special effects. This is one of the biggest advantages of using a cyc wall: the ability to create the perfect image in post-production. The smooth and seamless surface enables you to create believable special effects, add computer graphics, perform virtual reality shoots, and so much more.
The brightness and reflectivity of a cyc wall aids in spreading light more evenly across a studio. It helps to eliminate shadows as well and can put your subjects in their literal best light. When shadows do appear, they’re easily “cleaned up” with fill lights and backlights. Keep lighting soft and diffuse it by placing light sources at a slight remove from the wall—avoid having them gang up to create “hotspots.” With blank backing, you can also set up lighting that creates different moods, from dark and dreary to bright and sunny, with no interference.
