Hey /p/. Just wondering, do any of you have experience with larger home-made cycloramas?
I don't have the time/desire to build one like in the picture, so I was hoping one of you would have a cheap/easy alternative.
Oh, and person sized, not macro sized.

You could do something similar using:

1.) ENORMOUS sheets of paper
2.) cardboard ribbing with a sheet over it (not as good)
3.) 1/4" or thinner plywood painted white

You should be able to build the two walls and then nail the plywood to one side, bend it into shape, and then nail the other side down.
Be careful not to bend the plywood too much, but it ought to work without the need to make ribs.

Photographic background paper rolls. That's why they exist.
